Acupuncture is based upon the belief that a life force called Qi (pronounced chee), flows through our bodies in very precise pathways called meridians.

Illness results when the flow of Qi through our meridians becomes impeded.

Acupuncture is administered along these channels at specific acupoints.

Through precise stimulation with needles, the free flow of energy, blood, and nerve signals are restored improving the function of our body systems and bringing us renewed health and vitality.

About Acupuncture
Acupuncture will help you by stimulating your body's natural ability to heal itself without any negative side effects.

Acupuncture is a body-mind healing modality that can restore our innate health and vitality by bringing about balance and harmony. It is part of a system called Traditional Chinese Medicine (TCM) with a history of over 3,000 years of continued refinement.

Mitchell specializes in a highly refined method of Japanese Acupuncture called Toyohari.

Acupuncture is a holistic practice in which no single aspect of someone's health is appraised separately from the whole person. Physical, emotional, environmental, and psychological conditions are all considered and addressed in creating a treatment plan.

We all have an innate ability to heal our selves. Our bodies are constantly trying to find balance and harmony to achieve maximum functioning. An organic illness is the result of a prolonged imbalanced life style. The underlying disharmony and feelings of disease exist long before an illness can be identified and named in a bio-medical sense. The aim of the acupuncturist is to help correct these patterns of disharmony and thereby guide the body to restore its natural state of equilibrium, good health and vitality.
