How It Works
Restoring the Flow of Qi
In Traditional Chinese Medicine, health depends on the smooth flow of Qi energy through the body's meridians. When this flow is disrupted — by injury, stress, or illness — pain and dysfunction follow.
Acupuncture restores this flow. Fine needles placed at precise points stimulate your body's natural healing response, while acupressure massage and topical herbs amplify the effect.

Common Questions
What to Expect
Does acupuncture hurt?
Acupuncture is a gentle treatment. Most patients find sessions relaxing with minimal discomfort. The needles are very fine — as thin as a hair — making them virtually painless upon insertion.
Does acupuncture actually work?
Yes. Acupuncture is an effective treatment for pain, stimulating the release of endorphins. It decreases inflammation, increases circulation, and provides lasting relief from pain. It can treat people of all ages.
Are the needles sterile?
Absolutely. We use single-use, sterile disposable needles. Every needle is opened fresh for your treatment and safely discarded after.
Is it covered by insurance?
Many insurance plans cover acupuncture. Contact your provider directly. It may also be covered for workplace injuries (WorkSafeBC) or motor vehicle accident claims (ICBC).
