Relieve Pain
Whether you have sustained an injury playing sports, have gotten into a motor vehicle accident, are recovering from surgery, or have repetitive stress injuries from working at your desk, acupuncture can assist in relieving any pain you might be experiencing. Acupuncture works with your body to lower inflammation and allow the body to heal pain points naturally.
Bringing Balance
In Traditional Chinese Medicine, we believe that there are rivers of energy that course through the body like rivers of water. When life serves up a stressful emotional, mental, or physical trauma that flow of energy becomes congested, blocked, or stuck and overflows into new channels. Acupuncture helps to re-establish good energetic flow by dilating blood vessels and allowing nutrients to go where they are needed. The goal of this process is to restore balance.
Restoring Relaxation
The Elements Holistic Wellness center’s primary goal is to provide the ultimate in relaxation and body balance restoration. We know you will be seeing us for more than one visit, as acupuncture is a cumulative medicine. This is why we have taken the time to create an intentional environment with Feng Shui, gem therapy, and aroma essentials, providing nurturing private spaces for healing. Relaxation, revitalization, and restoration will be yours at the conclusion of your treatment.

How many treatments will I need?
Usually, a series of treatments are necessary to resolve a condition. Each case and condition is treated individually. A consultation is required to determine requirements. Treatments can be between 45 to 90 minutes in length with the first consultation usually lasting longer. Your acupuncturist will provide you a specific treatment plan.
Does acupuncture treatment hurt?
Most patients have stated that there is little or no pain as very fine, sterile, disposable needles are used. Treatments are available without the use of needles using acupressure rather than the needling.
Can children be treated with acupuncture?
Children of all ages are treated with and respond well to acupuncture and Chinese herbal treatment. In addition, parents apprehensive of the use of acupuncture needles may request their child be treated without needles using acupressure, cupping, or aroma acupressure therapy.
Should I consult with my physician regarding getting acupuncture?
It is always advisable to inform your physician about any treatment that you are seeking and it is also very important to have a list of medications and supplements that you are taking available during your first consultation with your acupuncturist.
Will acupuncture treatment be covered through my insurance reimburse?
Some insurance companies cover acupuncture treatment and they stipulate that the practitioner be NCCAOM certified. Both acupuncturists at Elements Holistic Wellness have achieved such certification. In addition, a majority of flexible accounting spending plans will cover acupuncture. It is recommended to call your insurance carrier to verify coverage.
