Acupuncture
Acupuncture is the Oldest All-Natural Treatment Modality
Acupuncture has amazing track record for treating an astounding variety of conditions, including chronic and acute pain, allergies, sleep disorders, digestive disorders, internal medicine conditions, mental health issues including stress, anxiety, and depression, feminine health issues, and many more. Modern research has demonstrated acupuncture’s effects on the nervous system, endocrine and immune systems, cardiovascular system, and digestive system. By stimulating the body’s various systems, acupuncture can help to resolve pain, improve sleep and digestive function, and promote a sense of well-being.
Why Acupuncture?
Acupuncture has been a trusted treatment modality for thousands of years. It is non-invasive, non-addictive and effective. Acupuncture is designed to treat the root cause - not just the symptoms - so patients actually become healthier and regain their vitality.
Hado Health practitioner and owner Minerva fell in love with acupuncture first as a patient. Only four acupuncture sessions relieved excruciating pain in her shoulders and prevented her from having invasive shoulder surgery. It was her personal experience that motivated her to study and practice acupuncture and Eastern medicine modalities. They are – to this day – essential offerings at Hado Health.
How Does Acupuncture Work?
The beauty and power of Eastern medicine is that it treats people as whole persons. Minerva sits with each patient and discusses his/her energy, spirit, and body to explore the many ways the Japanese and Chinese healing modalities might help. At Hado Health, we always do our best to listen to each patient and then offer the most effective and long-lasting treatment.
What Should I Expect?
Does it hurt? This is usually the only concern our patients have about acupuncture. We always assure patients that the needle insertions are very gentle and cause little to no discomfort. In most cases, all a patient feels is a light warming or tingling sensation, numbness or slight soreness, pressure, or simply, relief.
proven results
Whether used alone or combined with modern medicine, acupuncture has endured for thousands of years because, quite simply: it works.
Electroacupuncture
We will often build Electroacupuncture into patients’ treatment plans. Electroacupuncture utilizes a small electrical current between two acupuncture needles. This method can increase the effectiveness of acupuncture and is effective at relieving
muscle spasms
neurological disorders
stroke damage
acne
acute nausea and more
Electroacupuncture activates the body’s endorphin system and lowers blood pressure. The procedure is painless; most patients only feel the mild sensation of a light electrical current. Gentle electric pulses can also regenerate damaged tissue and aid in facial rejuvenation.
