Why Our Natural Treatment for Anxiety Works So Well
We address the root cause
Our process includes finding and addressing the actual root CAUSE of your anxiety. This is why so many have found relief with our therapies, even though other therapies didn’t work. Even those with a long history of anxiety have experienced significant relief.
We keep it simple
Reducing your anxiety does not have to be difficult. Simple, targeted lifestyle and dietary changes, along with our targeted natural therapies, are a very clear and concise way to address the problem head on.
We use an all natural approach your doctor doesn’t know about
Your doctor may have told you that there’s not much they can for your anxiety except put you on medication forever, go to therapy, and/or learn stress management techniques. Maybe you’ve tried those things and they’ve helped a little or not much at all. That doesn’t mean there are no other treatments available. It just means your doctor has run out of ideas or there aren’t conventional treatments available. Oftentimes, we find that people who don’t respond well to conventional treatment respond very well to our natural approach. And if those therapies are helping you, we encourage you to continue them and our natural approach will complement and enhance their effectiveness.
We awaken your body's natural healing system
Despite what you may have been led to believe, your body is not “broken” and it IS possible to reduce and even eliminate your anxiety. That’s because your body never forgets how to heal itself. It just needs the right support. Your body makes its own “feel good” and calming substances, and our therapies help it do just that.
Here's How we Help You Overcome Your Anxiety
Primary Factors Assessment
First we assess your unique situation to determine the root cause of your anxiety.
Individualized Treatment Plan
Next, we come up with a focused treatment plan to address the root cause, along with any other symptoms you might be experiencing (such as pain, trouble sleeping, low energy and mental clarity). Your treatment plan will include one or more of the following therapies: acupuncture, nutritional or herbal supplements, simple lifestyle changes, and relaxation exercises.
Balance your body and mind
We’ll do weekly acupuncture sessions targeted towards balancing your mind and body, releasing feel-good endorphins, and improving your body’s natural resilience and sense of well-being.
Targeted Nutritional Support
We’ll make sure you have a nutritional plan that supports the healing of any cells and tissues that have been depleted or damaged, and are contributing to your anxiety.
Ensure Stable, Lasting Results
Once we’ve achieved consistent relief of your anxiety, we’ll gradually reduce the frequency of the treatments, to ensure that your results last.

Common Questions & Answers
Does it hurt?
The needles are extremely thin, and they cause little, if any, pain because they are razor sharp.
Will you tell me I have to take 25 vitamin pills a day?
We always make sure our treatment plans are concise and focused on your problem. No “shotgun” approach here.
How do I know it’s safe?
Acupuncture has been practiced safely for centuries, and in the hands of an experienced practitioner is virtually risk-free.
Will I have to keep doing treatment with you forever?
Most patients experience a complete resolution of anxiety in 2-4 months. After that, many choose to come in for regular maintenance visits. But, our goal is to get you to where you no longer need treatment and will be so happy with your results you’ll send all your friends and family to us.
Are there side-effects?
Generally, there are no side-effects, other than occasional mild bruising (this rarely happens). There are, however, many positive side-effects including increased relaxation, better sleep, and a more positive attitude and outlook.
How do you know it works for anxiety?
Study after study shows that acupuncture has powerful, modulatory effects on the nervous system, inducing deep states of relaxation. In addition, acupuncture stimulates release of higher levels of endorphins, which are the body's natural opioid. This induces a natural, gentle state of deep relaxation.
Will anything you do conflict with my medications?
Absolutely not. We always evaluate the medications our patients are taking and make sure there are no known cross-reactions before recommending anything.
Is this going to require a big time commitment?
Actually all it takes is some very simple daily routines that take a few minutes a day, along with weekly 30-60 minute visits to my office for several weeks.
Is natural medicine REALLY powerful enough to cure my anxiety?
Natural medicine actually helps your body make more of its own medicine, which is more powerful and potent than any man-made medicine.
How long does it take to see results?
People often feel a shift after the very first treatment. Acupuncture is a very powerful way to stimulate endorphin release, which is the most powerful relaxing substance the body makes.
Will I bleed?
The acupuncture needles do not cause any bleeding whatsoever. Occasionally a drop of blood will appear at the insertion site, upon removal of the needles, and this is easily cleaned with a simple cotton swab.
Is there any risk of infection?
As per federal regulations, all our needles are sterile, single-use, and disposable. There is no risk of getting an infection from the needles. If you have an immune or other condition we should know about, we’ll make sure to cover that with you before treatment.
What if I’ve had anxiety all my life? Can it still help me?
Yes, once balance is restored to the body via acupuncture and any nutritional deficiencies are addressed, the body’s innate healing abilities are activated, and even long-standing anxiety can be significantly relieved.
Am I going to have to give up all my favorite foods forever?
The vast majority of our patients are able to eat foods they enjoy again once their healing process is complete.
