What Our Patients are Saying
“I first found Angela in February of 2021 after seeing a number of doctors for my fertility and pain management. After a long road of little-to-no answers, I decided to try acupuncture. Angela has well exceeded every expectation I ever had! Her wonderful attitude, attention to detail, kindness and her ability to take her time and listen, are what make her so extraordinary at her job. I would look forward to every week I would get to come in. She is so humble and truly makes you feel like you're talking with a friend you can trust.
After years of infertility testing, Angela helped me focus on what my body needed to do to heal itself. As someone with Polycystic Ovarian Syndrome I have never had an ultrasound without showing any cysts or abnormalities for at least 10 years. However, in October 2021 after my second Laparoscopy, No cysts or abnormalities were found! This was unheard of for me. I am truly a believer in acupuncture and believe if you are consistent it can work for you too!
Thank you to Angela for her wonderful friendship and knowledge. I cannot recommend her enough!”—S.C.

HOW IT WORKS
THE SYSTEM WE USE WORKS ON SEVERAL LEVELS:
· Acupuncture has been demonstrated in studies to increase relaxation and relieve stress. When your nervous system is calm, your hormonal system, immune system, digestive, and circulatory systems all calm down, too. This means more hormonal balance, less inflammation, better circulation and nutrient absorption. When we use acupuncture to bring more blood flow to the glands and tissues that need the most support, those tissues naturally work better. This means key tissues like thyroid, liver, adrenals, ovaries, and others are able to function at peak levels.
· Customized Herbal Therapy may be used to balance hormone output and tissue response, as well as replenish and restore the body’s internal resources. We have seen dramatic changes in menstrual cycle length, flow, and symptoms using herbs along with acupuncture. This is demonstrates the power of herbs to help restore the natural rhythm of the body with very little risk or side-effects. Herbs simultaneously cure AND strengthen the body. This dual action is something unique to herbal medicine that makes it very well suited to treat chronic and non-life threatening conditions like migraine, PMS, menstrual difficulties, menopausal symptoms, hormonal imbalance, and reproductive issues.
· Targeted Supplementation. When your cells, glands, and tissues are fully nourished with the specific components they need they naturally function at a very high level, and you’ll feel your best because your body’s key systems are optimized. We give you guidelines to ensure you are eating the right kinds of foods at the right time of day with the right types of nutrients to support your body in creating and sustaining hormonal balance. Improper diet is a source of biological stress that most of us do not think about. By making targeted, practical adjustments to your diet we can reap significant benefits for you.
· Specialized Mind-Body Techniques teach you how to effectively manage stress, to keep the body in the most balanced state possible. When your nervous system is calm, your hormonal system, immune system, digestive, and circulatory systems all calm down, too. This means more hormonal balance, less inflammation, better circulation and nutrient absorption.
