One of the most common reasons that people give for not trying acupuncture is the fear of needles. This often stems from memories of getting shots or blood draws at a medical doctor's office, but an acupuncture treatment is a very different experience!

The needles themselves differ from the those used in Western medicine, and the way that they are inserted is also a completely dissimilar technique.

Read more details in our latest blog post...and then schedule an appointment when you're ready to give acupuncture a try!

The fear of needles is one of the most common reasons that people do not try acupuncture, but there are quite a few differences between acupuncture needles and the syringes used by doctors!

When patients tell us that they're afraid of needles, the phobia is usually based on an experience with a doctor's syringe.

Acupuncture needles are very small - about the diameter of a hair - and nothing goes in them or on them. They're tapped in quickly to bypass superficial nerve endings, which means their insertion is often completely painless, much different than a shot or blood draw 💉

If you've been hesitant to try acupuncture because of a needle phobia, give us a try!

Happy Year of the Horse ✨

This year is interesting in that Ramadan and Lent both start around the same time as the Lunar New Year.

No matter what you celebrate, we wish you a season of blessings!

Ancient cultures associated age with wisdom, regarding elders as leaders of the community to be respected. Nowadays, however, age is often associated with a decline in focus and memory.

This doesn't have to be the case, though, as cognitive health is influenced by lifestyle just as physical health is. The key is to continually challenge the brain!

Read our latest blog post for tips and ideas:

We're open today for any patients who are comfortable driving on the snowy roads ❄️

We may close early if it looks like our last few appointments aren't booking, but feel free to put yourself on the schedule if you need some acupuncture!

We've decided to close the clinic both today (the 26th) and tomorrow, Tuesday, the 27th, due to icy road conditions. Stay safe and warm!
