Empowering a thriving, sustainable community through cycling
At Alma Acupuncture, we are dedicated to providing high-quality, personalized healthcare services using the ancient practices of Traditional Chinese Medicine (TCM). Our goal is to strengthen your vital energy, allowing your body to heal itself and maintain optimal health. We specialize in acupuncture, Chinese herbs, and other complementary therapies, which are all effective in relieving chronic pain, symptoms of illness, and the discomforts of modern lifestyles.
Acupuncture and Chinese Herbs
Acupuncture and Chinese Herbs are the cornerstone of our practice, forming the foundation of TCM, a practice that is more than 3,000 years old. Acupuncture involves the insertion of sterile, disposable, thin needles into specific points on the body that correspond to energy pathways, or meridians. This process helps to strengthen qi (energy in the body) where it is weak or disperse it in areas where it is congested. Chinese herbs work synergistically in customized formulas to provide a holistic approach to treatment.
Sports Medicine Acupuncture
Sara Rankin, our certified Sports Medicine Acupuncturist, specializes in treating soft tissue and musculoskeletal injuries using Sports Medicine Acupuncture. This approach combines Traditional Chinese Medicine and Western Sports Medicine to not only treat the local pain site but also address the root cause of the injury. Sports Medicine Acupuncture includes postural assessment, manual muscle testing, needling motor points, and exercises to correct muscular imbalance.
Chinese Medicine
Chinese Medicine encompasses various therapies that work together to activate qi in the body. In addition to acupuncture and herbal medicine, we offer massage, cupping, and nutritional counseling. These techniques help enhance the immune system, release pain-killing endorphins, and improve hormone system function.
Shonishin - Acupuncture for Children
Shonishin is a Japanese style of acupuncture tailored for infants and children. It is a needle-free treatment that aims to strengthen the constitution and balance the energy (qi) of young patients. Shonishin is effective in treating common colds, earaches, digestive issues, and other childhood ailments.
At Alma Acupuncture, our mission is to provide exceptional and compassionate care using the time-tested practices of Traditional Chinese Medicine. We are dedicated to helping you achieve balance and well-being through our personalized and comprehensive services.
