Acupuncture and Herbal Medicine are among some of the oldest healing practices in the world. These ancient branches of Chinese Medicine date back over 3,000 years. From their inception they have been used to prevent, diagnosis, and treat disease, as well as improve overall general health. Acupuncture techniques are based on the theory of meridians, or pathways leading to specific acupoints where energy flows within the body. The body maintains a healthy state by having an ample supply of energy flowing through the body via the meridian system. Because illness is thought to be the consequence of an imbalance or blockage of the meridians, stimulation of acupoints restores the body’s natural flow of energy so the body can repair itself. 

 At Florida Acupuncture and Counseling, our goal is to provide exceptional quality care for each individual. The physical, emotional, mental, and spiritual aspects of the body are all interrelated. Each person has a different story formed from the unique events throughout our lives that shape us, often throwing our bodies off balance. At Florida Acupuncture and Counseling we strive to formulate a treatment plan specific to you in order to aid you in your journey back into balance by helping restore body, mind, and spirit.  We desire to be set apart, giving light to everyone who comes through our door; to create a healing environment where patients do not feel like they're just another name on a schedule, but a place where patients will be filled with peace and joy.
