Change the Way You Feel

Acupuncture is one of the eight branches of Traditional Chinese Medicine (TCM). TCM is an ancient medicine backed by thousands of years of case studies and supported by modern research. People turn to this modality for a variety of medical conditions including acute injury, chronic pain, and imbalance in any of the major body systems (cardiovascular, digestive, musculoskeletal, etc.).

In addition to helping you return to health, TCM can be used as a proactive medicine to help keep energies aligned and support the body with everyday stressors. Many patients integrate acupuncture treatments and other TCM tools into their schedules, similar to including exercise or yoga routines, to keep the body in optimal shape. Monthly tune-up appointments can help you fight off illness, lessen chronic symptoms, and improve your reaction to bigger medical obstacles when they do occur.

"I am a healthy 42 year old who came down with awful and then lingering flu-like symptoms. I had a bad cough that persisted for several months, and visited two MDs. The first told me I might have "real influenza," the second said it might be whopping cough; but both said that there is no treatment and I should just wait it out. I visited John and after one session of acupuncture and a day of herbs the symptoms went away never to return. This is just one of several similar cures that I got from John." - Zack

What Sets us Apart

At Jade we foster an atmosphere of comprehensive care with an integrative health approach, offering each patient a tailored treatment plan that may involve a combination of services including physical therapy, yoga, acupuncture, and massage. Each patient is different, so which treatments you receive are a discussion with your acupuncturist about what might be most beneficial for you and your recovery. We strive to offer the highest quality of care and thrive on strong in-house communication between providers to ensure patient success. 

First Visit: What to Expect

Prior to your first visit, you will fill out a detailed health history form that will help your acupuncturist understand how all of your body’s systems are functioning. The first portion of your appointment involves talking through this information with the acupuncturist to determine the best treatment plan and point selection. The acupuncturist will then begin treatment with needles, which will remain in the skin for 15-30 minutes while you rest. Typically two sets of needles will be inserted. The first appointment runs an average of 90 minutes, and, depending on your needs, each follow-up session will be 60-90 minutes. We recommend comfortable, loose clothing for the appointment. Head to our new patient center for acupuncture forms, FAQ's and additional new patient information!
