Why our natural treatments help?

NATURAL PAINKILLERS:
Your body is intuitive and never forgets how to heal. It produces natural painkillers and anti-inflammatory substances and our therapies can help your body release them, naturally.
SIMPLE TECHNIQUES:
In addition to our treatments, we guide you on self-care techniques to overcome pain. We’ve recommended these same techniques for our patients over and over again and they work!
TISSUE REPAIR:
Our treatments stimulate blood flow to promote tissue regeneration. When your body is provided the right cues for healing, repair is accelerated.

Our unique and effective approaches help you feeling your very best, naturally.

GENTLE ACUPUNCTURE:
Acupuncture is a powerful tool to stimulate your body’s healing mechanism. It jump starts cell and tissue repair,
reduces inflammation and promotes increased blood flow.

MANUAL OSTEOPATHY
Gentle manual therapy is used to release any build up of tense tissue that affect circulation. Once alignment and proper tension is restored, you will experience relief and greater range of motion.

ELECTRICAL MEDICINE:
Electrical current is used to enhance therapeutic effects, promoting muscle relaxation and pain relief. It helps to stimulate nerves, increasing circulation, reducing inflammation, and speeding up the body’s natural healing process.

LIFESTYLE RECOMMENDATIONS
We help you figure out what you may or may not be doing outside of treatment that is contributing to your pain. This will help to ensure that the injured area can heal and ensures lasting pain relief.

Your Questions | Our Answers:

Do I have to get treatments for a long time?

Most of our patients do not need long term care. Once the pain is resolved then you are released from care. The positive effects from our treatments are long-lasting.

Is Natural Medicine powerful enough to help my low back or hip pain?

Most definitely! Your body is very powerful and already contains the blueprint for healing. Our job is to help jump start that process with our tools. We have seen this time and time again in our clinic.

Do the needles hurt?

The needles are very thin and are razor sharp to ensure a comfortable and painless insertion.

Will I have to do complicated treatment plans?

We focus on simplicity to set you up for success. We examine a few key areas of your lifestyle that can be adjusted, so we help you focus on effective strategies without feeling overwhelmed.

How should I prepare for my Acupuncture appointment?

Wear loose fitting & comfortable clothing. This allows easy access to a large number of Acupuncture points and allows the practitioner full range of movement with your body when doing an Osteopathic treatment.

Most treatments can be done while the patient is fully dressed. Avoid coming to your appointment on an empty stomach.
