Chinese herbal medicine can be used for acute or chronic conditions and for almost any ailment or injury. One difference with herbs is that they treat the underlying condition and not just the symptoms. At the Acupuncture Center we are national board certified herbalists, and Chinese herbs are a big part of our practice. If you would like to try Chinese herbs (which have no side effects) to treat your condition or injury give us a call to talk it over (804) 754-5108.

Acupuncture can be used for chronic and acute conditions or both. And multiple issues can be worked on simultaneously. We have been acupuncturists for 20 years and have treated a wide range of issues. If you have questions or want to set up a free consultation or make an appointment, call or text us at (804) 754-5108. ​

At the Acupuncture Center we treat all types of pain. Knee pain is something that we see quite often and that seems to respond well in most cases. There are a plenitude of acupuncture points in the area of the knee that have been used for centuries to treat knee pain. Most patients see relief after a single treatment but a few more are usually needed to really make a lasting difference. Give us a call or shoot us a text and we can do a consultation over the phone to see if this type of treatment might be right for you. (804) 754-5108. 

Plantar Fasciitis Anyone who has had this condition knows how painful it can be and how hard it can be to get rid of. But because of the nature of acupuncture and Chinese medicine and the way it looks at pain syndromes, acupuncture may be the best way to treat this condition. Acupuncture stimulates healing by stimulating blood and energy flow through the plantar area. In addition to acupuncture, typically we will use one or more of the following in our treatment plan for plantar fasciitis: Chinese herbs (internal), Chinese liniments, cupping, gua sha, electostimulation. ​

Bell's Palsy is a condition that traditionally responds extremely well to Acupuncture. In fact many physicians recommend that their patients with the condition get acupuncture. With Bell's Palsy it is important to start treatment as soon as possible. Bell's Palsy seems to be one of those conditions that can often get entrenched, and the longer you wait the the tougher it can be to resolve. However even patients who have had the condition for a year or more can see significant improvement, it just takes longer. Most of our recent onset patients see marked improvement after just a couple of visits. We also have several traditional herbal formulas that can hasten recovery.
