The body knows how to heal itself naturally, but can become unbalanced from physical trauma, intense emotions, diet or stress. Acupuncture encourages the body back into its own natural balance. Often treatment for one problem results in other ailments disappearing naturally at the same time. Let's work together to restore harmony in your body through acupuncture.

When I was 42, I lost all my hair, including my eyebrows, eyelashes and all over my body. Western medicine calls it alopecia universalis and I was prescribed massive steroids. I knew intuitively it was not the answer to my condition so a friend suggested I try acupuncture. While acupuncture didn't cure me either, my stress level decreased, some of my hair began to grow and my mood greatly improved and led me to change my career.
Acupuncture is a technique in which practitioners stimulate specific points on the body-most often by inserting thin needles through the skin. It stimulates the release of the body's natural painkillers and affects areas in the brain involved in processing pain. Results from a number of studies conclude that acupuncture may help ease chronic, low-back pain, neck pain, osteoarthritis/knee pain, and carpal tunnel syndrome.

Amy Podhurst is an incredible acupuncurist. She believes in and cares about her efforts to help ease whatever ails you. She always texts to see how you are feeling and is genuine and amazing at her craft. Her office is spotless and so very relaxing...I have recommended her to everyone I know. I was constantly in pain and was feeling discouraged until I started treatment with Amy. Best thing I ever did for myself!
