Acupuncture

Here at Marshall Back & Body, we believe that it is essential to maintain wellness and take care of your body naturally to live a healthy and balanced life. Practiced in China for thousands of years, acupuncture is one of the key components of traditional Chinese medicine and has become a popular healthcare and wellness treatment today. Traditional Chinese theory explains acupuncture as a natural way of balancing the flow of energy that flows through pathways (or meridians) in your body. As long as your energy is flowing freely throughout your meridians, health is maintained. Once the flow of energy is obstructed, excessive and unbalanced, pain and illness arise. Acupuncture seeks to restore the natural balance of energy that is meant to flow through your body. Acupuncture helps promote blood circulation, balance metabolism and hormones, weight loss, alleviate allergy symptoms, troubles with acne, and in many cases, infertility.

First Visit, What to expect?

Most patients find feeling calm with a sense of well-being. On occasion, people do fall asleep during treatment and are pleasantly surprised how gently Dr. Asenime places the needles. There is, on occasion, the possibility that you may feel a slight sensation but we use specially designed needles intended to be virtually painless.

The healing process is unique to the patient and it is important that each treatment plan is individualized. After a consultation with Dr. Asenime and a thorough examination, she will carefully create a treatment plan tailored just for you.
