Acupuncture in Los Angeles - A Time-Tested, Evidence Based Alternative Medicine.



Acupuncture is the use of ultra-fine disposable needles which are inserted at specific points of the body to manipulate the central nervous system and improve health. There are over three hundred sixty acupoints on the body. Each has its own specific function. Depending on the desired effect, different techniques can be used to either stimulate, sedate, or regulate blood circulation and the central nervous system to restore health. A typical treatment can last from thirty to forty minutes.

Each point has its own specific depth at which the needle should be inserted. Every acupuncturist is well aware of any organs, nerves, and vasculature underneath and surrounding every point. After a treatment, patients feel relaxed and rejuvenated with partial or total relief of major symptoms.

Most treatment courses run from six to twelve treatments. However, for more severe or chronic problems a treatment course can be longer. Treatments may be combined with other forms of Alternative Medicine such as Diet and Nutrition, Herbal Medicine, Tui Na, and Qi Gong Exercises. Many patients enjoy one treatment per week as a health maintenance measure.
