Acupuncture involves the strategic insertion of thin, sterile needles into specific points on the body to stimulate the body's natural healing processes. This ancient practice works by modulating pain, aiding in neurotransmitter regulation, enhancing blood flow, reducing inflammation and supporting the immune system. Acupuncture can effectively address a wide variety of conditions, including pain management, stress, anxiety, depression, digestive disorders, respiratory conditions, fertility issues, immune system imbalances, sleep concerns and musculoskeletal issues.

▪️ IS ACUPUNCTURE COVERED BY MY HEALTH BENEFITS?
The majority of health insurance plans cover Acupuncture treatments. Direct billing to your insurance company is also available for the majority of insurers, but may vary by policy. It is recommended that you check with your insurance provider to determine coverage levels and whether direct billing is permitted.

The level of undress and appropriate draping with sheets for physical privacy will also be discussed with you and is always according to your comfort level.

▪️ I'M AFRAID OF NEEDLES. HOW BIG ARE ACUPUNCTURE NEEDLES?
