Unlocking Balance with Acupuncture

A holistic approach to wellness and healing.

Acupuncture, a time-honored tradition rooted in traditional Chinese medicine, offers a unique pathway to restoring your body's balance and health. By gently inserting fine needles into specific points on the body, acupuncture stimulates the body's natural healing processes. This method can help alleviate pain, reduce stress, and promote a sense of well-being. Whether you're dealing with chronic conditions or seeking a preventative health measure, acupuncture provides a non-invasive and natural approach to enhancing your health.

What You Need To Know

At Health Haven, we’re proud to offer focused acupuncture therapy for patients of all walks of life.

Rooted in ancient Chinese medicine, acupuncture is designed to clear the inner pathways of your body, removing congestion and allowing you to function to the best of your ability, which is achieved through placing thin needles at various points on the body.

These needles help your body to reestablish correct and healthy communication between different parts of your body, bring itself back in to homeostasis, and relieve your pathways to proper function, resulting in natural wellness. Acupuncture can decrease inflammation, regulate hormones, and increase healthy blood circulation.

We’re proud to offer acupuncture that’s focused and unique to each individual patient, and we promise to dive deep to uncover exactly what’s going on in your body so that we can recommend the best possible care plan for success.

Frequently Asked Questions

Does acupuncture hurt?

Absolutely not. In fact, most of our patients find their sessions to be extremely relaxing-some remarking that it’s the best they feel all day. The needles used are extremely thin, and we often describe them as ‘hair’ like-they’re so fine that you may not even feel them being inserted, so there’s no need to worry about being ‘poked’.

Do I need a referral for acupuncture?

No, you’re free to simply call us up and book an appointment. We do accept insurance and are happy to verify your benefits if you’d like.

How many sessions will I need before I feel better?

Because each person is unique, and the length of treatment may also depend on the severity and duration of the issue, it’s difficult to say exactly how many sessions you’ll need before your complaint is resolved. However, for acute conditions, we generally like to see patients a couple of times a week at first, and will gradually reduce their frequency of care as the symptoms clear up and root cause is addressed. You can expect a minimum of 3 treatments, possibly 10-12 sessions for subacute issues, and longer for long-term chronic conditions, or those with less energy for the body to direct to their healing. In the meantime, you will notice a general improvement in your overall wellbeing.

What can acupuncture help with?

Acupuncture has helped patients just like you experience a wide range of benefits, working to help your body’s systems do their jobs more smoothly and effectively, which can often improve things like: insomnia, headaches, anxiety, emotional issues, digestive issues, gynecological conditions like painful or irregular periods, peri/menopausal symptoms, low energy levels, pain and so many more.
