Restoring Body
Homeostasis.
Safe, evidence-based acupuncture to regulate the nervous system, reduce inflammation, and accelerate your natural healing process.
What is Homeostasis?
Think of homeostasis as your body’s internal thermostat. It is the automatic process of maintaining a stable internal environment—regulating temperature, circulation, and fluid balance—despite what's happening in the outside world.
When you become sick or injured, this balance is disrupted.
"Chronic conditions occur when the body’s homeostatic mechanisms cannot fully restore balance on their own. Acupuncture bridges that gap."
Therapeutic Effects
Fine needles are inserted at specific anatomical points to stimulate the nervous system and promote physiological responses.
Does It Hurt?
Acupuncture is generally very gentle. Most patients find treatments relaxing and experience minimal discomfort.
Atraumatic Design
Our needles are extremely thin—about the width of a human hair. They have rounded tips that allow smooth insertion through tissue, minimizing bleeding or pain.
The "DeQi" Sensation
You may feel a brief sensation of warmth, heaviness, or a dull ache. This is known as "DeQi" and indicates the treatment is working therapeutically.
Deep Relaxation
Needles remain in place for 15–30 minutes. During this time, most patients feel deeply relaxed as the nervous system down-regulates.
Is It Safe?
Acupuncture is considered very safe when performed by a trained professional. Serious adverse events are extremely rare (less than 1 per 10,000 treatments).
Strictly Sterile
All needles are sterile, single-use, and properly disposed of after every single treatment. No re-use. Ever.
Trained Professionals
Large safety studies report no serious adverse events in tens of thousands of treatments when performed by registered therapists.
