What is Acupuncture?
What can acupuncture do for me?
Acupuncture is an effective treatment for so many illnesses, because it goes beyond treating a single diagnosis. Acupuncture strengthens the body's innate healing ability and addresses the root cause of any given illness. The body returns to its natural ability to improve immune function, benefit circulation, calm the nervous system, clear the mind from negative thought patterns, and create new pathways for wellness.

Acupuncture works by removing blocks along the body’s energetic pathways and stimulating free flow of Qi, the energetic life force coursing through the body. There are many styles of acupuncture - at Lust for Life, we practice a blend of 5 Element Acupuncture and Traditional Chinese Medicine. Five Element Acupuncture recognizes that the same movements occurring in the seasons, nature, and the divine cosmos operate within our bodies. By bringing the 5 Elements and their representative organ systems into harmony, we guide the body to optimal functioning.

Acupuncture and Herbal therapy are two pillars of Chinese Medicine, drawing on wisdom developed over thousands of years of intimate study of nature. Acupuncture creates change for the body-mind-spirit which builds on itself and affects how we move forward with life - the decisions we make, the way we perceive the world, and the way we relate to ourselves and others. It is both a subtle and powerful medicine, often working fast and with long-lasting effects.
