It’s incredibly safe

Acupuncture along simple dietary modifications and targeted supplements are proven to be safe and effective for the treatment of Rheumatoid Arthritis.

Proven results

We have been able to help many people who present with pain, stiffness, swelling and other symptoms associated with Rheumatoid arthritis. Studies have shown that acupuncture reduces pain, decreases inflammation and improves quality of life in people suffering RA.

It’s fast

Our experience treating pain over the past years means we know how to get you feeling better quickly and efficiently. Patients often report significant improvement in symptoms within days, not weeks or months.
 

Lasting results

Because our treatment program strengthens the immune system itself, along with all supporting body systems, the effects of the treatment last a long time and even when the symptoms come back during a flare up, they are easily corrected and your body response is faster.
 

Acupuncture is one of the most powerful ways to naturally stimulate your body’s innate healing process. Then, it gets right to work repairing and restoring all cells and tissues. Acupuncture harnesses the vast healing intelligence your body contains to help you heal faster.

Gentle Acupuncture

Cupping is a technique that uses small glass or plastic cups that create suction on the skin. It increases blood flow, loosens muscles and helps alleviate pain helping the body on its own natural healing process.

Cupping

Gua sha or skin scraping is a technique that uses a specialized tool to rub or scrape the skin with the intention of increasing blood flow, break scar tissue and reduce pain and inflammation.

Gua Sha

Moxibustion is the use of the dried herb mugwort or Artemisia argyi. This herb is burnt close to acupuncture points or areas of the body. This creates a warmth that penetrates deeply stimulating blood flow, reducing inflammation and swelling.

Moxibustion

When your nervous system is calm, the hormonal system, immune system, digestive, and circulatory systems all calm down, too. This means a more focused mind, a more resilient immune system, less inflammation, better circulation, and optimal nutrient absorption.

Relaxation & Stress Reduction

Herbs simultaneously cure and strengthen the body. This dual action is something unique to herbal medicine that makes it very well suited to treat many inflammatory and pain conditions.

3.

Active Treatment & Symptom Resolution

Depending on your case, you will return twice a week to ensure close support as you begin to feel the positive shifts of the therapy. We want to make sure your treatment plan is yielding the expected results:

​

- Less or no pain

- No stiffness

- Better sleep

- Decrease swelling

- Better movement

- More energy

- Better appetite

- Decrease the size of your rheumatoid nodules
 

You’ll also receive acupuncture at each visit to ensure that your nervous system is rebalancing to reduce inflammation and improve circulation.

4.

Transitional Care As Things Stabilize

Once we see stable improvements, we will begin to reduce the frequency of visits.  Initially, you’ll come every other week, then once a month for a couple of visits, then you will no longer need regular treatments. Because RA is a chronic condition, you might need to come back if you have a flare-up.

Of course, MANY of our patients do wish to continue with “ongoing maintenance” and we are happy to work that out with you, should that be your wish.
