Can Acupuncture Help You?

I firmly believe that every single person would actively pursue acupuncture treatment IF they understood more about it.

I understand that it can be uncomfortable to try new things, especially when it involves needles, along with a lot of new theories and ideas. If you have felt reluctant to try acupuncture, we totally understand. And we are here to help.

The truth of the matter is that acupuncture is not for everyone. Some people have severe acute medical issues that require other forms of intervention. Others are unable to relax because acupuncture does involve the use of needles.

It's also true, though, that the vast majority of people in our modern world would greatly benefit from regular acupuncture treatment. Most people are just amazed by how great acupuncture makes them feel.

It is very common for someone to say, 'that was it??' after I insert the first needle, as they are shocked that they felt so little. Even if you are sensitive, there's a good chance that you will notice little if any discomfort from the acupuncture needles. They are so fine that the patient rarely notices more than a little pressure, tingling, or mild ache around the needles (which is often described as pleasant).

Our point is this: If you have been reluctant to try acupuncture because it is new, but you could use some help with your health, energy, or overall quality of life, then we welcome your phone call. Our mission is to make your acupuncture experience not only tolerable, but deeply relaxing, invigorating, and healing.

Many of our patients were reluctant to make that first call, yet almost all of them have been beyond pleased with how gentle and effective the treatment has been for their health care needs. We want to the same to happen for you!

Acupuncture: Understanding An Invisible Process

Acupuncture is both an art and a science. Acupuncture involves inserting hair-fine needles into specific points along meridians in order to assist the free flow of qi (a combination of energy and information). I know that this isn’t an easy idea for those of us used to Western ‘science’. I have a wonderful analogy, borrowed from my personal mentor Dr. Richard Tan, that will make the concepts of acupuncture, meridians and qi clearer.

Imagine an overhead light (a single bulb or fancy chandelier, whatever you prefer) and now picture the switch on the wall that turns it on and off. You don’t see the wires that connect the light to the switch but you feel confident that, when you flip the correct switch (the one corresponding to that particular light), the light will indeed go on. Now, apply this concept to acupuncture and meridians: Think of the light bulb as your health problem and the switch as the needles and the wires that connect the two places as the invisible networks called meridians. When I insert the needles (flip correct switch) that link to meridians (wires running through the wall) sending qi (electric current) to reach the light bulb (your health problem) it changes the situation from dark to light.

The key is using the correct switch. Meridian Harmonics is the premiere clinic of acupuncture and Oriental medicine in North Texas. Meridian Harmonics is only clinic that uses the Pulse Matrix diagnostic system for determining each patient's internal medical imbalances. In this way Meridian Harmonics designs and implements customized and correct Acupuncture and Herbal strategies to treat each patient.
