Traditional Chinese Medicine (TCM) practices draw from holistic Eastern healing techniques. Acupuncture is the most common technique used. It improves health and stimulates the body’s natural healing mechanisms by stimulating acupressure points/meridians using a fine, sterile needle. Pressure, heat, or electrical stimulation may further enhance the effects.

You do not need a physician’s referral to attend acupuncture sessions.

Some extended health plans may cover the cost of the treatment as well. Please review your private insurance plan for more details.
