Acupuncture at Roots Wellness

Acupuncture is a powerful and time-tested form of healing, rooted in Traditional Chinese Medicine. For thousands of years, it has helped people feel better, move better, and live with greater balance—naturally.

At its core, acupuncture works with the body’s energy system, or qi (pronounced “chee”). This energy flows along pathways called meridians, supporting every function in the body. When qi is disrupted—whether by stress, injury, poor sleep, or emotional imbalance—symptoms and illness can arise.

Using fine, sterile needles placed at precise points, acupuncture helps restore the smooth flow of qi, bringing your body back into harmony. Patients often describe a deep sense of calm during and after sessions, followed by noticeable improvements in:

  • Sleep quality

  • Stress levels and anxiety

  • Energy and focus

  • Immune function

  • Digestive ease

  • Pain relief—from headaches to joint issues

  • Hormonal balance and menstrual health

Whether you're seeking relief from chronic symptoms or simply want to feel more grounded and vibrant, acupuncture offers a natural, holistic approach to healing.

Modern research supports its benefits. Organizations like the National Institutes of Health (NIH) and the World Health Organization (WHO) recognize acupuncture as an effective treatment for a wide range of conditions.

The doctor of the future will give no medicine, but will instruct his patient in the care of the human frame, in diet and in the cause and prevention of disease.
