ACUPUNCTURE

THE history OF CHINESE MEDICINE

Originating in China over 3,000 years ago, acupuncture is the oldest continually practiced medical system in the world. The ancient Chinese recognized the vital energy behind all of life’s processes. It is believed that this energy, called “qi” (pronounced “chee”), circulates throughout the body along meridians or channels; if this energy flow is disrupted, normal physiological function can be affected, resulting in pain or chronic illness.

WHAT IS ACUPUNCTURE?

Acupuncture involves stimulating points on the body via needles, or pressure, to restore the proper circulation of ‘qi’, helping to bring the body back into a balanced and healthy state. While Western medicine focuses on treating symptoms, Chinese medicine’s goal is to treat the root cause of the illness while alleviating accompanying symptoms.

 
“Qi consists of all essential life activities which include spiritual, emotional, mental and the physical aspects of life. ”

“Melinda has been treating my kids and me over the last year, and we love her! She has supported us through Winter colds, fevers, allergies, autoimmune disorders and helping my son with his Tourette Syndrome. Melinda is easy to talk to and very clear about the how and why regarding treatments and follow up. She speaks with confidence and compassion and clearly knows her stuff! I love my time on the table and LOVE that my anxious 8 year old is excited to climb on her table for his treatment and taps. We trust Melinda with our family health care.”
