Is acupuncture right for you? That depends on what kinds of results you're seeking. If you're struggling with a chronic health condition, Oriental medicine will definitely help. Acupuncture is also great for relieving stress and tension headaches.
If you're looking for a more natural way to treat your health issues, acupuncture is an effective option. If you're considering acupuncture it's important to find a qualified practitioner, like Dr. Pamela Cornish DOM, NP.
​
When looking for a Doctor of Oriental Medicine, be sure that your acupuncture provider is a trained professional, Nationally Board Certified, who graduated from a licensed Chinese Medical School. Please don’t settle for another type of healthcare provider who uses “dry needling” in order to advertise “acupuncture” among their offerings. Remember, acupuncture is only one of the six branches of Oriental Medicine.
