Acupuncture & Herbal Medicine
Acupuncture and herbal medicine are two main treatment methods of Traditional Chinese Medicine, the oldest, continually practiced medicine in the world. Acupuncture and herbal medicine are deeply rooted in the holistic healing approach to the human body.
Acupuncture involves the insertion of very fine needles into specific points of the body. The insertion and placement of these needles change the energy currents and patterns in the body in beneficial ways. This ancient art of healing, along with herbal treatments, nutrition, and exercise, works with the natural vital energies of the body to promote its self-healing ability.

Patient's Testimonial: "I initially saw Amy in the hopes of alleviating symptoms from fibromyalgia. After getting my pain under control, we started to work together on weight loss. With Amy’s assistance and coaching, I lost over 30 pounds in 4 months. I feel stronger, healthier and more energetic - pairing nutrition with acupuncture has helped me immensely.
