Acupuncture, a form of meridian therapy, is an ancient Chinese medicine used to alleviate pain and promote overall health. There are over 2000 conditions cataloged that acupuncture/meridian therapy can be beneficial to.
Through the stimulation of the meridians, an acupuncturist is able to restore balance necessary for healing and thereby health to the patient. Acupuncture at our office uses pre-sterilized, single use, disposable needles placed in specific points, along invisible meridians that run throughout the body. Each meridian point has a specific significance and can unblock and repair meridians and channels with vital energy or chi.
Doctor Heller has been a certified acupuncturist since 1998. He also use lasers and micro current in addition to needles for those delicate area and those individuals that might be squeamish.
