What Can Acupuncture Treat?

Acupuncture works by activating the body's own healing powers, so it can be beneficial for many health conditions. The World Health Organization (WHO) has documented many symptoms, diseases, and conditions that have been shown in controlled clinical trials to be effectively treated with acupuncture. Acupuncture influences the entire human body, including the neurological, gastrointestinal, immune, respiratory, and genitourinary systems, to name a few examples.

Treatments can ease your mind, body, and spirit back into balance by supporting your body's own healing mechanism. Nachelle is thoroughly trained as a general practitioner of acupuncture, although she is specialized in treating a variety of health imbalances, as described below.
