That constant ringing, buzzing, or whooshing in your ears? It's not just annoying. It's maddening.

Tinnitus can make it hard to concentrate, hard to sleep, hard to feel at peace in your own head.

In Chinese Medicine, the ears are governed by the Kidney system—which makes winter (Kidney season) the time when ear issues often flare up or worsen.

Tinnitus can show up as:

● High-pitched ringing
● Low humming or buzzing
● Clicking or pulsing sounds
● Fullness or pressure in the ears
● Hearing loss or muffled sound We treat tinnitus by:
● Nourishing the Kidney system (which "opens to the ears")
● Improving circulation to the inner ear
● Clearing any inflammation or stagnation
● Calming the nervous system (stress makes it worse)

Does it work for everyone? No. But we've seen significant improvement in many patients—especially when tinnitus is related to stress, depletion, or circulation issues.
If the ringing is stealing your peace, let's see what we can do.

Every step hurts. And you're starting to wonder if this is just your life now.

Plantar fasciitis that makes mornings excruciating. Bone spurs that stab with every step. Old injuries that never quite healed. Nerve pain that shoots and tingles unpredictably.

Your feet are literally your foundation—and when they're compromised, everything else suffers.

You've probably tried: orthotics, physical therapy, rest, ice, stretching routines, new shoes. Maybe some of it helped temporarily. But you're still limping through your day.

Here's what's different with acupuncture:

We don't just treat your feet. We treat the systems that support your feet—circulation, inflammation, nerve function, and the structural integrity of tendons and fascia.

In Chinese Medicine, foot pain (especially in winter) often points to Kidney and Bladder meridian imbalances. When we address the root, the pain shifts.
Most people notice improvement within the first few sessions.

Living with a neurological condition feels like your body stopped taking orders from your brain.

Tremors you can't control. Balance that's gone shaky. Numbness that creeps further every month. Fatigue so deep you can barely get through the day.

Whether it's Parkinson's, MS, neuropathy, stroke recovery, TBI, or migraines that won't quit—you're not just managing symptoms. You're grieving the person you used to be.

Here's what we know: acupuncture can't cure neurological disease. But it can support your body's ability to function better, hurt less, and move with more ease.

We've seen improvements in:

● Motor control and coordination
● Pain and nerve sensitivity
● Energy levels and stamina
● Balance and stability
● Cognitive function and mental clarity

It's not a miracle. It's medicine that works with your body's capacity to heal and adapt. You don't have to do this alone.

Can't breathe? We've got you.

Seasonal sinus misery doesn't have to be your winter story. Acupuncture and Chinese Medicine are excellent at clearing congestion and helping you breathe easier—both immediately and long term.

Whether it's sinus pressure, headaches, brain fog, or that constant full-headed feeling, we've seen it and we've treated it.

Many patients walk out breathing better after just one session.

Imagine a life where your head doesn't hurt. Seriously—what would that feel like?

To wake up clear-headed. To make it through the day without that familiar throb starting at your temples. To not have to cancel plans or dim the lights or pop pills just to function.

We treat all kinds of headaches:

*Migraines that steal entire days
*Tension headaches that live in your shoulders and neck
*Hormonal headaches that show up like clockwork
*Sinus and weather-related pain
*Temple or forehead pressure
*Nerve-based headaches (like trigeminal neuralgia)

Or some complicated mix of all of the above

Winter tends to make headaches worse—the barometric pressure changes, the tension from cold weather, the stress of the season. If you've been managing headaches all year, this is when they usually peak.

Acupuncture has a strong track record for reducing headache frequency, intensity, and duration. Not just masking the pain—actually changing the pattern.

Start treatment now, and give your body time to recalibrate before Spring!

If you're tired of managing instead of solving, we're here.

Feeling a little foggy, flat, during Winter? You're not the only one.

Acupuncture helps re-align your body's rhythms by lifting your energy, calming the mind, and refueling your reserves.

Think of it as the nap your body keeps asking for—but deeper and longer-lasting.

We have Saturday appointments available for seasonal reboots.

That low-level hum of anxiety that never quite goes away? The fear that something bad is about to happen, even when everything's fine?

In Chinese Medicine, fear is the emotion of the Kidney system—and winter is when it tends to surface most.

You might be feeling:

● Generalized anxiety with no clear trigger
● Panic attacks or heart palpitations
● Fear of failure, inadequacy, or the unknown
● A sense of being ungrounded or unsafe
● Difficulty making decisions (frozen by worry)

The darkness and cold of winter amplify this. Less light. More isolation. The Kidney system is already taxed by the season—and when it's depleted, fear takes over.

When the Kidney system is depleted or out of balance, fear takes over. It's not "all in your head"—it's a signal that your body's foundational energy needs support.

Acupuncture helps calm the nervous system, strengthen the Kidneys, and restore a sense of inner safety and groundedness.

Don't white-knuckle your way through the Winter season. Let's support your system now. You don't have to live in constant fight-or-flight.

Constantly running to the bathroom? Waking up multiple times a night to p*e?

Frequent urination. Urgency. Weak stream. Bladder infections that keep coming back. Incontinence when you laugh, cough, or sneeze.

These aren't just annoying—they're signs that your Bladder and Kidney systems need support.

In Chinese Medicine, the Bladder and Kidneys work together to regulate water metabolism and urinary function. When the Kidney energy is weak (especially common in winter), bladder issues flare up.

Acupuncture helps by:
● Strengthening the Kidney and Bladder systems
● Reducing inflammation and urgency
● Supporting pelvic floor function
● Addressing chronic infections at the root

You shouldn't have to plan your life around bathroom access. Let's fix this.
