Acupuncture FAQs
One of the great advantages of acupuncture is that, other than an occasional bruise, there are no side effects.
This is the most common question asked about acupuncture because many people associate needles with pain. Acupuncture needles are about the thickness of a dog’s whisker, so they are virtually painless when inserted.
This depends on the condition being treated. Although the acupoints are located throughout the entire body, usually the needles are placed on the extremities from your elbows down to your hands, and from your knees down to your feet. Other common areas include the abdomen, back, and ears.

Testimonials
“This place is the BEST! I love everyone who works here. Laurie is amazing and the receptionists are absolutely lovely. I have been working with Laurie to regain function and decrease my neck pain from a bulging disc. I immediately saw results after the first visit, and can honestly say she has given me my life back. Before I met Laurie, I was battling with my constant pain but now that my pain has decreased and almost gone away, I feel like myself again, which I am grateful for. Like I tell all my family and friends, Laurie has heeling hands!!”

“I met Dr. Blake when I hurt my back from coughing. She told me that she could do acupuncture on me the next day and we set up the appointment.
