Our Mission
We guide individuals toward their healthiest, most authentic selves, empowering them to spread wellness within their communities.
Our Approach
A broken connection between mind, body, and spirit leads to chronic physical and emotional ailments in modern life. We strive to re-establish that balance for our patients through the unique combination of Acupuncture, mind-body medicine, nutrition guidance, and lifestyle suggestions.
Evidence-based medicine
Acupuncture is supported by scientific research for treatment of chronic pain, including lower back pain, osteoarthritis of the knee, chronic headaches, neck pain as well as other conditions such as allergic rhinitis. It is clinically relevant and persists over time, and more than a placebo effect.
Mechanisms of Acupuncture
Acupuncture triggers the release of various chemicals in the body, such as endorphins (the body’s natural opioids). It is also found to release the neurotransmitters such as serotonin and dopamine, which can modulate pain perception and promote feeling of wellbeing.
It can modulate central nervous system by stimulating sensory and autonomic nerves, which can induce physiological changes in the brain.
Acupuncture has anti-inflammatory effects by positively influencing the immune system.
Currently, more and more clinical trials are being done in order to better understand its underlying physiological mechanisms.
At our sessions
We encourage our patients to increase awareness of their minds, body, and spirit. Dr. Robyn is often an investigator at the session, delving into many questions to better understand the symptom and a technician to fine-tune her skill set.
Focus areas
We treat patients of all ages with pain, headache/migraines, chronic stress and fatigue, and digestive disorders, and women’s health.
