Nicholasville, KY 40356
As someone with chronic pain who has been on both sides of the table, I have a unique viewpoint on what patients need. I believe that both western medicine and acupuncture have their place in society; neither is "better" than the other. Instead, they work best when used together as part of an overall health plan. My goal is to make acupuncture an easy, sensible part of my patient's lives. I work hard to tailor treatments to each individual so that all of my patients are comfortable with their level of therapy.

Acupuncture in Richmond - is it right for me?
Acupuncture is based on the concepts of oriental medicine or traditional Chinese medicine (TCM) and is one of the oldest healing practices in the world. Richmond acupuncturists are health care professionals who evaluate and treat the many conditions, aches and pains that respond to acupuncture.
Acupuncturists insert very fine acupuncture needles into the body. The purpose of the needles is to stimulate acupuncture points or meridians. The needles do not inject any substance into your body and are so fine as to be virtually impossible to feel. In some cases, acupuncture may be accompanied by electrical stimulation or the burning of moxa, a form of heat therapy. Or use acupressure, where physical pressure is applied by hand or elbow to trigger points with the aim of clearing blockages in these meridians.
'Accupuncture' and 'Accupuncturist' are common mis-spellings.
