Why Choose Traditional Chinese Medicine?
Traditional Chinese Medicine (TCM) is the world’s oldest, continuously practiced, literate medical system—dating back more than 3,000 years. With a focus on the interconnectedness of mind, body, and spirit, TCM uses a sophisticated diagnostic process to uncover the root causes of illness and restore harmony.
Rather than simply masking symptoms, TCM addresses the underlying imbalances that lead to disease. This holistic approach allows for lasting change and significant improvement in a wide range of conditions—physical, emotional, and spiritual.

Is Acupuncture Safe?
Yes. When performed by a licensed and professionally trained acupuncturist, acupuncture is both safe and highly effective. At Arizona-Acupuncture, we use only sterile, single-use needles and follow stringent ‘clean field’ protocols to ensure your safety and comfort.
Does It Hurt?
Most patients find acupuncture to be surprisingly gentle and relaxing. The needles are extremely thin—comparable to a strand of hair—and insertion is often painless. Some people experience a light tingling or warming sensation, which is a sign of the body’s energy responding to the treatment. Many patients even fall asleep during sessions.
How Does It Work?
Acupuncture works by stimulating specific points on the body to rebalance the flow of energy—also known as Qi—along the body’s meridians. This process improves circulation, reduces inflammation, enhances immune response, and promotes healing from within.
Each acupuncture point has specific functions designed to address the imbalances that have led to disease and dysfunction. These points are carefully and skillfully chosen to maximize their healing effects.
Treatment may also include Chinese herbal medicine, which uses time-tested formulas to correct systemic imbalances. Your personalized care plan may also address dietary habits, lifestyle, emotional stressors, and other contributing factors to support your whole-body wellness.
Why Choose Chinese Medicine for Your Unresolved Health Concerns?
Many people turn to Traditional Chinese Medicine when other approaches fall short. Acupuncture can offer meaningful relief without the side effects of pharmaceuticals or the invasiveness of surgery. In fact, some patients find they no longer need invasive procedures after undergoing consistent acupuncture treatments.
Whether you are seeking relief from chronic pain, emotional stress, hormonal imbalances, or just want to improve your overall vitality, Traditional Chinese Medicine offers a proven, holistic path forward.
