How Acupuncture Works

Acupuncture is based on Chinese Medicinal principles, which view the body as an interconnected system of vessels that connect to circulate blood, nutrients and energy from food and air to the whole body.  When circulation does not flow properly the body becomes imbalanced and can lead to pain, illness and emotional distress.  Acupuncture helps restore balance by:

  • Stimulating Specific Points: Thin, sterile needles are strategically placed on the body to promote proper circulation.
  • Enhancing Blood Supply: Improved blood flow promotes healing and reduces inflammation.
  • Balancing Hormones: Acupuncture can regulate the endocrine system, supporting hormonal health.
  • Reducing Stress: Treatments promote relaxation and help alleviate stress's physical and emotional effects.

Conditions We Treat

At Family Acupuncture, we provide treatments for a wide range of conditions, including:

  • Pain Management: Chronic pain, migraines, arthritis, back pain, and sports injuries.
  • Women's Health: Menstrual irregularities, menopause symptoms, and fertility support.
  • Digestive Disorders: IBS, acid reflux, bloating, and other gastrointestinal issues.
  • Stress & Anxiety: Support for mental health, emotional balance, and improved sleep.
  • Immune System Support: Boosting immunity to prevent illness and promote recovery.

  • Additional Therapies

    The scope of Chinese medicine involves more than just using needles. We have additional techniques that act as a great complement to improve circulation, reduce inflammation, soften tissues, break up knots or adhesions, and reduce pain. These techniques include electro-acupuncture, and Chinese herbal medicine.

    Electro-Acupuncture

    Electro-acupuncture uses a machine to introduce a gentle electric current to an inserted needle. The current stimulates the needle and can substantially improve blood flow, activate various chemicals in the brain and reduce pain more than the needle alone.

    The Benefits of Acupuncture

    Regular acupuncture treatments can offer numerous benefits, including:

    Natural Pain Relief: A drug-free alternative to managing acute and chronic pain.

    Improved Sleep Quality: Promotes relaxation and helps regulate sleep cycles.

    Enhanced Energy Levels: Restores vitality and reduces feelings of fatigue.

    Boosted Fertility: Supports reproductive health for both men and women.

    Holistic Healing: Addresses the symptoms and underlying causes of health concerns.

    What Our Patients Say About Their Fertility Experience

    My experience with Jose was very comforting during a very difficult time. Women dealing with infertility issues need to be treated with care and concern and Jose completely understands this. He allowed me to relax during a time I found this to be very difficult. He understands the challenges fertility treatments present and is very helpful explaining the process when doctors have fallen short in this area. I looked forward to each session and am grateful for the care I received.

    I couldn't be happier with my experience here! Jose helped my husband and I get pregnant not once but twice. We had tried for almost two years with my first daughter to get pregnant. I had a number of tests done and the results were unexplained infertility. I am young and healthy and couldn't believe that I would have to do fertility treatments quite yet. I did three rounds of Clomid, but didn't have any luck. After being frustrated and emotional I wanted to try alternative measures. I had irregular periods so I thought that might be what was causing my issues. Jose treated me with herbs and acupuncture and on the third month we were pregnant! It was awesome!!

    When we thought about having our next child we didn't want to go through the emotional roller coaster of trying for a long time so when my daughter was about 15 months we went back to Jose. He started me on the same herbs and the very first month we were successful! This was after not using any birth control since our daughter was born. I still can't believe it!

    I am SO thankful that I came across Family Acupuncture and Herbs of Reading. Jose has truly changed our lives and helped us to make our dream come true of having a family!! I can't say enough good things about his business. Jose has been professional, knowledgeable, and attentive. I would recommend him highly to anyone thinking about seeking his expertise!
