How Does Acupuncture and Massage
Help Maintain Wellness?

Many types of Acupuncture relieve symptoms in one or just a few treatments.

Five-Element Acupuncture is effective in addressing the root cause of an illness, whether physical, emotional, mental, or spiritual.  In truth, all illness is a combination of a person's many levels; that's why a holistic approach, aided by the unique five-element acupuncture diagnostic tools, is vital.

Therapeutic Massage relieves or alleviates physical symptoms in one session.  There is also an "energetic" side to massage, and, over time, it can also address non-physical ailments.  For example, Hawaiian Lomi Lomi has been used for centuries to help much more than aches and pains.

At Acupuncture & Bodyworks, Janine's protocol is to address a patient's immediate distress, then work on the deeper-levels of the distress and imbalances, then establish a routine maintenance program.

Often, symptoms are alleviated early in treatment.  If symptoms reoccur, they are usually shorter in duration than the original problem and less intense.  The amount of treatment and the response to treatment varies with each person, because this system of medicine is not only curative, it is also preventative.
