Acupuncture
Acupuncture is performed by inserting fine needles at the various points on the body. The needles are activated by gentle, specific movements of the provider's hands. By stimulating the central nervous system acupuncture rebalances the body’s energy system to restore health. Traditional Chinese Medicine is based on the concept that the body has a system of energy pathways or channels much like the circulatory system.
Acupuncture is valued because of its effectiveness in treating many ailments, especially chronic conditions that are not well addressed by Western Medicine. It offers a less invasive and more natural method of addressing health and illness. Using TCM to rebalance the body, mind, spirit, can include acupuncture, herbs, supplements, qigong treatment, massage, etc.
A treatment program may include a combination of acupuncture, cupping, moxibustion, gua sha, flower essence therapy and muscle testing for supplements and herbs. Qigong energy may as be added as requested.
“I have been seeing Terrill for various complaints over the years and have always gotten good results. He fine-tunes his Bach Flower and herbal remedies with kinesiology, and he’s always had formulas I needed on hand, sparing me a trip to Chinatown. His needle technique is painless, and he is always attentive and present. I also like the fact that he develops himself spiritually as well as academically.
