At Harmony Point Acupuncture, LLC, we strive to work with you on your path to wellness by cultivating harmony within your body through health and happiness.
Oriental Medicine is a comprehensive health care system. While a major focus is on harmonizing the body through the use of acupuncture we are a "lifestyle" medicine, that has a large focus on recognizing and correcting the behaviors that led to your dis-ease. Though acupuncture is a large part of what we do, it is only one therapeutic method we are trained in.

Your first visit:
Oriental Medicine Practitioners take a lot of time to explore YOU. We really want to listen to everything you have to say about you and how your ailments are manifesting. We ask a lot of questions to determine how whatever "disease" you have is presenting in your body. (For example, 10 people may come in with the chief complaint of hypothyroidism, but all 5 of those people will likely receive a different diagnosis and thus, treatment.) We may palpate your body if you are having pain to gather information. You can then expect to receive acupuncture and other techniques if appropriate.
