So how does needling your ankle help your back?

Your body’s energy pathways — called meridians — connect your head to your toes. When pain blocks the flow in one spot, we can open it from the other end.

It’s like clearing a blocked hose by flushing it from the other side!

This method:
✅ Gives fast relief — often on the table
✅ Uses fewer needles
✅ Avoids aggravating sore areas

Next post — I’ll share real examples of how this works for headaches, back pain & more!

Did you know you don’t always need a needle where it hurts?

In my clinic, I often use a clever style of acupuncture where I treat your sore back *from your ankle*, or your stiff neck *from your wrist*.

Sounds strange — but it works.

It’s called **Balance Acupuncture**, and it’s a brilliant way to shift pain, tension or stuck energy *fast*, without poking into sore spots.

Stay tuned — next post I’ll share **why this works so well** and why my patients love it!

What "is" Traditional Chinese Medicine, anyway?

In a nutshell, Traditional Chinese Medicine (or TCM) is an ancient health system that looks at the "whole person"—not just the symptoms. It’s all about balance: mind, body, and spirit working together. Instead of masking the problem, we ask "why" it’s happening in the first place.

Using things like acupuncture, herbs, food therapy, and lifestyle tweaks, TCM helps your body do what it’s naturally meant to do—heal itself. It’s not just for sore backs either. From sleep and stress to hormones and digestion, we’ve got tools to help.

And no, you don’t need to believe in “energy” for it to work—just a willingness to try something outside the usual box.
