Our medicine has been used to help people with back pain for thousands of years. One of the reasons why acupuncture and herbal medicine succeeds where other modalities fail is because we work to identify the root cause of the condition and not the just the symptom.

Did you know that all of the major internal organs connect into the spine from nerve pathways?

The symptom of back pain can be related to so many other conditions. This is why we do a full assessment and treatment plan with every person we work with. We want to help you get to the root of the problem, so that true healing can occur.

Our course of action to help you:

Active Treatment & Symptom Resolution

In your office visits, we will utilize the tools we possess to help your body to recover.

With Acupuncture, we can stimulate the pathways of blood flow and fluid circulation. These nutritive resources can supply the tissues of the body with fresh potency, renewing function, restoring growth and resolving pain.

With Herbal Medicine, we can directly supply the organs with new assets. As organ function increases, the tissues of the body become rich with nutrient density. This allows for healing that wasn’t previously possible.

Initial Assessment & Treatment Plan

We’ll discuss your case, your medical history, and any medications that you’re taking. We’ll help you create goals for the treatment and resolution of your condition.

We’ll assess your condition with the tools that are unique to our medicine. We will explain how we see the difficulty that your body is having and what can be done to intervene. We will strategize with you and come up with a plan to move things forward on the path of healing.
