Acupuncture Q & A

What is Acupuncture?

Acupuncture is a form of TCM that uses sterile needles to open up energy channels throughout the body. Your acupuncturist inserts these needles along specific pathways called meridians.

Acupuncture removes energy blocks, allowing your “Qi,” which translates from Chinese into English as life force or energy, to balance the body and return to homeostasis. When you have energy blocks, you may experience a range of health issues, including pain, disease, and emotional fatigue.

Licensed acupuncturist Jainen Shin also uses electro-needling. The procedure starts with traditional acupuncture practices, then Jainen attaches the needles to a machine that sends electric pulses through them. Electro-needling can enhance the effects of acupuncture and increase endorphin release throughout the body.


Are there other TCM methods available?

Besides Acupuncture, cupping and herbology is also available. Any other interests or questions about the benefits and methods of TCM can be answered by scheduling an appointment with licensed acupuncturist Jainen Shin.


What is ElectroAcupuncture?

Electroacupuncture is a form of acupuncture where a small electric current is passed between pairs of acupuncture needles. According to some acupuncturists, this practice augments the use of regular acupuncture, can restore health and well-being, and is particularly good for treating pain.
