Andrea Ford L.Ac
Chinese Medicine has been used to treat the ills of human society for 3000 years. This system of medicine is extremely safe with no known side effects. It works by communicating with the energy system of your body-mind-spirit to remind it how to be in its natural, healthy state. Once you are balanced, your natural healing ability is enhanced to help you heal whatever problems you are having.

Due to the experience of many stressors, which accumulate during our lifetimes, our energy systems develop deficiencies and stagnations, and that opens us to developing symptoms. Acupuncture, herbology, and massage as well as diet and exercise are used in combination to balance the particular pattern of disharmony preventing symptoms from developing.
Services
As a Licensed Acupuncturist, Andrea has helped thousands of patients over more than two decades. Her clients come to her for a variety of reasons, from simple relief of pain due to headaches or back pain to more complex issues such as arthritis, and fibromyalgia, anxiety or depression. The beauty of Acupuncture and Oriental Medicine is the way in which it works.
Cosmetic Acupuncture is a becoming extremely popular as a tool to extend the youthful appearance both men and women are seeking. It means to improve the appearance. The beauty and cosmetic industry have developed thousands of products and surgeries that promise the fountain of youth, but often the safety of aggressive chemical or surgical approaches is yet to be determined.
Therapeutic massage is deeply relaxing and rejuvenating. There are lots of reasons why one might want to get a massage on an ongoing basis. With the stressors of modern life, we could all use a little stress management. In addition, most people have aches and pains that massage can help alleviate. Blood flow and energy flow (Qi) are greatly increased by the gentle loosening and stretching of the muscles and tendons.
The Hormones are the directing system of the body. In proper amount and in right relationship to each other the hormones communicate with every cell in your body giving your body the correct prompts and signals for what function your body performs and in what order and to what degree.

Unfortunately, due to stressors including emotional, dietary, and chemical from our environment, processed foods and water almost everyone's hormones are chronically disrupted.The disruption of our hormonal balance causes the systems of our bodies to function irregularly. Over time these hormonal imbalances can create decreased vitality and numerous medical conditions leading to a shortened life span and decreased quality of life.
Chinese Medicine assists patients with weight loss by balancing blood sugar and hormone levels, increasing insulin permeability and balancing the digestive processes so that you do not feel hungry. Chinese Medicine also balances you emotionally so you feel like taking better care of yourself and making better choices.

After several visits with Andrea for acupuncture, I highly recommend anyone with chronic health concerns to incorporate Andrea's skills and knowledge into your whole health regimen. She has had an exceptionally positive influence on my neurological health, where spine specialists have been unable or unwilling to help me. I now feel able, balanced, and strong in my legs, where I had been feeling caution and concern for years. Thank you, Andrea, for helping me live my best life!

Was told 85 a visit and 30 for consultation. Seemed a tad high but you get what you pay for. Showed up 5 min early. Receptionist just looked at me and I said I had a appointment. She asked with who and told me to sit down. Didnt ask my name. Didnt do anything but go back on her phone. After 35 min I called it quits and left. I dont even know if andrea scheduled the appointment or not but for over 100 a hour I expect someone to respect my time. My time is just as important as hers. You should never have anyone wait 30 plus minutes. The receptionist was for sylva internal medicine but andrea has
