Acupuncture and Chiropractic Care - Complimentary Treatments for Optimum Health

If you are one of the 30 million Americans who seek chiropractic care regularly, you may have wondered about the benefits of using acupuncture in addition to chiropractic adjustments. While they have different origins and are administered through very different techniques, acupuncture treatments and chiropractic adjustments are both excellent complementary treatments for improving and maintaining your health. At EAST Integrative Medicine, we can work together to determine if a combination of acupuncture and chiropractic care would be a successful treatment program for you.

Both acupuncture and chiropractic treatments work in ways that empower the body to heal without the use of drugs, surgery or other invasive treatment.  Both are also designed to correct imbalances, prompt natural healing and restore a state of health that was formerly impeded.  Each treatment accomplishes this in its own unique way.

Acupuncture is based on the overall flow of biological energy across the body’s meridian points.  Very thin needles are used to manipulate precise points to remove any blockages that interfere with the body’s internal balance. Chiropractic care uses manual adjustments throughout the spine to correct subluxations or obstructions that are based within the nervous system.

In many chronic conditions, the use of acupuncture and chiropractic care together may be an efficient method of treatment.  Book your appointment for acupuncture at EAST Integrative Medicine today; we will work with you to address your specific needs.
