How It Works
Acupuncture is based on the principles of traditional Chinese medicine (TCM), which views the body as a network of energy pathways known as meridians.
These meridians are believed to carry vital energy, called “qi” or “chi,” throughout the body. When the flow of qi is disrupted or blocked, it can lead to various health issues.
Acupuncture helps restore the balance and flow of qi within the body.
- Acupuncture Points: Acupuncture involves the insertion of very fine, sterile needles into specific points on the body known as acupuncture points or acupoints. There are hundreds of these points located along the meridians, each associated with different organs and functions.
- Stimulating Qi Flow: The insertion of needles at these acupoints is believed to stimulate the flow of qi, unblocking any stagnation or disruptions. The needles can influence the body’s energy, redirecting it to areas where it is deficient or dissipating excess energy.
- Nervous System Response: Acupuncture needles can also trigger a response in the nervous system. They stimulate sensory receptors in the skin and muscles, sending signals to the brain. This can lead to the release of endorphins and other natural pain-relieving chemicals, promoting a sense of relaxation and well-being.
- Regulation of Body Functions: Acupuncture can have a regulatory effect on various physiological functions, including blood pressure, heart rate, immune response, and hormonal balance. By promoting balance within the body, it supports overall health and homeostasis.
- Individualized Treatment: Acupuncture treatments are highly individualized. Acupuncturists consider a person’s unique constitution, symptoms, and specific imbalances when selecting acupoints and treatment techniques. This personalized approach is a key aspect of acupuncture’s effectiveness.
Acupuncture is safe and minimally invasive. It is often used as part of a comprehensive approach to healthcare to address a wide range of conditions.

Been meaning to leave a review for months. Dr. Sebastian, Robin and the rest of the team were super helpful in both customer service and alleviating my constant back pain. 7 months after my last treatment I still feel great. I was most impressed by their understanding of my family relocating and them providing reimbursement for the remaining sessions I had. Thanks guys!

I love this place! I found it by divine guidance, and it is certainly the place I needed. I received a massage there and have recently started adjustments with Dr. Sebastian. RELIEF!!! My only complaint is that I went out of town shortly after I started my treatment... cannot wait to resume! It is a well-run, professional, & nurturing business. Do yourself a loving favor & make an appointment there! Your body will thank you.

My back was in such severe pain I visited the emergency room the week before Christmas. After the holiday I scheduled a new patient appointment with Dr. Sebastian. I’ve lived in the area since the 80’s and have always know Dr. Sebastian was one of the best. Several treatments were administered and after the appointment I had immediate pain relief. I’m visiting Dr. Sebastian again today and looking forward to it. Thank you Dr. Sebastian and his team for everything you do.

I came to see Dr. Sebastian for a pinched nerve in my neck. I also had back pain in my lower right quadrant. I was more than a little skeptical, but the pain had become more than a nuisance. Upon examination, he explained his findings in a readily understandable friendly manner. Overtime, the pain was alleviated and I have been pain frèe for about 6 months. Thank you, Doc. Along the way, my lower back pain disappeared too. Thank you, Doc. Hîs staff is excellent and friendly too. I highly recommend the good Doc.

Dr Sebastian is the best chiropractor I have ever used. I've had great results here with treatment of acute sports injuries in my knee and neck. When I started regular visits after my last injury, I found that I felt noticeably better all around, and have suffered far fewer incidents of pain and inflammation after a hard workout than I felt before. Highly recommended.

I made an appointment because my back was bothering me. When I woke up the morning of the appointment my back was ok. I still went to the appointment because I felt I should keep my word. The staff were very friendly and after checking my spine the doctor agreed that I didn’t need further treatment. He called it a consultation and I wasn’t charged anything! Very refreshing! I’ll definitely go back when if I need help.
