Sabrina is very caring and intuitive. Not only has she helped me thru acupuncture services, she has provided cupping services (which is fantastic) and nutritional guidance. I can honestly say that she has had a VERY positive impact on my well-being and improvement in health. Thank you Sabrina! If I could give Sabrina more than 5 stars, I would.To say the least, she has greatly exceeded my expectations. She definitely knows what she is doing and she really cares for her patients. She has found her calling. I highly recommend her to anybody!

I went to Sabrina through a recommendation from a friend. I had never tried acupuncture before but was intrigued by the ancient wisdom of it and the many believers in it. I was tired of MD’s that never seemed to care or help. Sabrina is amazing. The fact that she CARES so much about healing others, manifests in her work. I am so thankful that she has chosen this profession to help others. She has a gift and has helped to heal me, not only in my physical body, but in all other aspects of my being (that I was not even aware existed six months ago)...

Boost How You Look and Feel with These

The last year has been particularly hard on many of us. In the United States, stress, anxiety, and depression have skyrocketed. Lack of socialization, reduced income, and fear of coronavirus have taken their toll. Now more than ever, it’s time to take steps toward better health and wellness.

Sleep Disorders? Acupuncture Can Help!!!

Sleep disorders occur when difficulties and complications interfere with the quality and length of sleep. One reason why it is so important to consistently have a proper night’s sleep is because without it, other medical issues may worsen. Even a single restless night can leave one feeling mentally, emotionally and physically exhausted.

Why should I see an acupuncturist?

There are several reasons why you should consider an acupuncture treatment. Most commonly, pain conditions sciatica, muscle tension, or even migraine headaches have much more success that conventional treatment. However, acupuncture is also considered preventative medicine. It's a natural, holistic medical approach to healthcare that keeps your body and mind strong.

Can acupuncture help me even if I feel healthy?

Yes, absolutely. Many patients come in for regular maintenance treatments to stay in 'tip-top' condition so they can fully enjoy life. Acupuncture is a powerful preventative measure to keep patients healthy throughout the year.

Does acupuncture hurt?

The vast majority of patients do not consider acupuncture a painful procedure. Some patients feel a slight 'Qi' sensation when the needle is inserted: most feel nothing at all. These 'Qi sensations' range from warmth or tingling, to a brief ache or heaviness in the area being needled

Are the needles safe?

Yes. Acupuncturists use sterile, disposable needles. They are used once and then disposed of in biohazard containers. These containers are sent to a medical waste management company for proper disposal according to federal laws and regulations.

Are there any side effects to acupuncture?

Yes, the side effects of acupuncture are generally positive: Improved digestion, betters sleep and overall feeling of ‘well-being’. Joking aside, one reason acupuncture has been so well embraced, may have to do with its low rate of side effects. The most common side effects may be mild fatigue for the hours following a treatment. Acupuncture is an energetic work-out, so it makes sense that one might report fatigue after a treatment, just as if they had gone for a 3 mile run. Another occasional after effect, might be a small bruise on the skin. However, these do not hurt and are few and far between. 99% of the time, there isn’t any bruising.

Does My Insurance Cover Acupuncture?

It might? Most insurance companies acknowledge Acupuncture to be a viable medical healing modality and cover varying amounts depending on a few factors, the most important of which is your carrier and individual policy.

I do not currently accept Medicare. * Any services or procedures not covered by insurance is the responsibility of the patient.
