Acupuncture

Traditional Acupuncture in Northwest Arkansas

Acupuncture is one of the oldest forms of traditional medicine in use today and, according to the World Health Organization, "in its 2500 years of development, a wealth of experience has been accumulated, attesting to the wide range of diseases and conditions that can effectively be treated with its approach." This traditional healing modality has continued to develop without interruption for several thousand years. There has been no reason to change it, alter it or dismiss any of its truths since it has always been right. A truly holistic medicine, it holds together and considers the whole system when diagnosing a patient.

  • Can acupuncture treatments help my condition?

  • How many acupuncture treatments do I need?

    The amount of acupuncture treatments you'll undergo depends solely on your ailment. As a general rule, the course of treatment depends on how long you've had the condition. 


    You may only need one treatment or you may need several treatments over the course of many months. To gain a better understanding of the number of acupuncture treatments, discuss it with our acupuncturist! 


  • How does acupuncture work?

    The needles used in acupuncture are specifically placed to stimulate points near or on the surface of your skin. These points are chosen based on how they interact with your sensory receptors. 


    Acupuncture promotes circulation, stimulates immune system, helps wounds heal, and releases your body's natural pain killing hormones. 


  • What if I'm afraid of needles?

    One of the biggest concerns we hear from potential patients is about their fear of needles. 


    Acupuncture needles are extremely thin in comparison to medical needles. The only thing you'll feel is a little pressure in the beginning but once it's in place it should be pain free.
