ACUPUNCTURE I studied under Dr. John Amaro,
who has been doing acupuncture for the last 40 years. Dr. Amaro has studied acupuncture all over the world, including
China, Japan, Korea, Vietnam. He is an international speaker and teacher of acupuncture. I bring his knowledge
to you. You also don't need to use needles to get the benefits of acupuncture. 9 volt battery devices work well.

Because Acupuncture
is based on Energy, the Chinese say that whenever the Energy
in the Universe changes, it's a good time to do something proactive for your health. This occurs 4 times a year as the
seasons change. As a Chiropractic & Wellness Center, we offer an incentive to our patients to at least come in 4
times a year for preventive maintenance. Come in for an adjustment during the solstice and we do the recommended acupuncture
points for the change of the seasons at no extra charge on your visit.
Does Acupuncture hurt? NO! But even so, most people have associated in their minds immunizations they received
as children. We DO NOT use needles! Laser and electric stimulation of acupuncture points work very well.
What is laser acupuncture?
Acupuncture- a Chinese practice
of puncturing the body at specific points to cure disease or relieve pain. Laser Acupuncture- rather than puncturing
the skin to stimulate these specific points, a laser is used. The laser is simply an infrared light beam at 625 nanometer
wavelength that transmits energy into the body to stimulate these points. It is totally painless.

Acupuncture has been performed for thousands of years by the Chinese and is based
on energy or Chi in the body. And for those thousands of years Acupuncture has traditionally been done with needles
because, frankly, that's all they ever had. When those needles are inserted into the body, they stick out like little
antenna, that's exactly what they are. They attract energy from the environment into the points, just like a TV antenna
pulls in the reception to a TV set. This process typically takes 20 minutes. Welcome to the 21st century!
There are other ways of doing acupuncture. People don't like being stuck with needles, even though it is painless, and
I don't really like having used needles in my office so it's a match. Laser, or light energy is another way of putting
energy into the acupuncture system. It's fast, and you don't feel much, maybe some warmth from the bulb. Another
technique is electrical stimulation with a 9V battery device. This you will feel as an electrical charge and the intensity
is adjustable. We have videos on page 2.
