Acupuncture is based on restoration of the body’s natural healing ability. This power or energy is called “QI” (pronounced “chi”). It has been called different names by different cultures, however this “Life Force” or Innate Intelligence is the essence of self healing. The intent of acupuncture therapy is to promote health and alleviate pain by carefully restoring the natural flow of chi or qi as it circulates through 14 known pathways, called meridians. Meridians are connected to bodily organ systems. Very simply, acupuncture works very much like chiropractic, restoring this natural flow of qi to areas that are weak or lack the indispensable life force.
The acupuncture treatment involves the use of very fine needles which are inserted into the meridians to open the passages of the energy flow. In most cases the tiny needles are about the size of a human hair. The insertion is almost unnoticed by the patient. In our office, a very light electrical current is sent through some of the needles. This speeds up the recovery time and decreases visit frequency.
Acupuncture therapy is a technique that is employed to balance one’s bodily energy. Inherent to living things is that energy or polar forces (positive and negative) which are vital to the life process.

What can I do about colic? It’s so hard for me to hear my baby cry and there seems to be nothing I can do about it!
For any of you that have ridden the emotional rollercoaster of a colicky baby, it isn’t something you soon forget. The inability of a parent or caregiver to console the child leaves them questioning their parenting skills. A recent study that evaluated the effects of spinal manipulation versus a common prescription medication (dimethicone) reported:
“Spinal manipulation is effective in relieving infantile colic, and that by the end of the two week trial period, the manipulation group did significantly better than the drug group. In fact, crying was reduced 2.7 hours per day in the chiropractic group. In contrast, crying had dropped only 1 hour per day with the use of dimethicone. In the course of the 12 days of the study, the children being adjusted saw a 67% reduction in crying versus 38% in the drug group.”
Another investigation showed that 91% of parents in the study reported that improvement in colic occurred within one week of treatment.
I have also noticed some supplements that help increase the effectiveness of the adjustment. Check with me for proper supplementation.

How can I get rid of the back pain I get during pregnancy? I don’t want to use medicines if I don’t have to.
Lower back pain and pregnancy are almost synonymous. In fact, several studies revealed that over 70% of pregnant women will experience lower back pain. A study reported in the prestigious medical journal Obstetrics and Gynecology revealed the leading cause of lower back pain was due to a mechanical dysfunction (or subluxation in chiropractic terms) in the sacroiliac joint. The journal Family Practice Resources reported a study completed by the Rochester School of Medicine where they reported that manipulation (adjustment) for sacroiliac subluxation was 91% effective in relieving back pain during pregnancy!
In addition to helping with back pain, it has been suggested that chiropractic care during pregnancy may reduce the time of labor and delivery between 24% (for the first child) and 39% (for the second child).
A recent study published in the Journal of Manipulative and Physiologic Therapeutics reported that the Webster Technique may be effective in relieving the musculoskeletal causes of breech presentations that are unlikely to spontaneously change to normal in the 8th month of pregnancy.
I have a special table in my office that is designed to accommodate the pregnant body. Many women receive great relief from pain by having chiropractic adjustments during pregnancy.
