Acupuncture and Mayan Abdominal Therapy are time-tested holistic health care options that can make a profound difference in the health and function of your body, mind and spirit.
Pain Relief: Acupuncture is well-known for its effectiveness in alleviating various types of pain, including chronic back pain, arthritis, migraines, and sports injuries. By stimulating specific points on the body, acupuncture promotes the release of endorphins—natural painkillers that help reduce discomfort.
Nervous System Health: The practice of acupuncture can significantly lower stress levels and improve our response to stressors and triggers. Acupuncture helps reduce anxiety and improve overall mental health in a variety of easy ways. It also has an amazing effect on retraining our brain out of the paths of anxiety and overwhelm that stress and trauma create. Improving anxiety, depression and other mental health concerns that can affect all aspects of our lives.
Digestive Health: Many individuals find relief from digestive issues such as irritable bowel syndrome (IBS), indigestion, and nausea through acupuncture. It promotes better digestion by regulating the gastrointestinal system and enhancing nutrient absorption. Amy also pairs Mayan Abdominal Therapy to profoundly impact and shift digestive issues.
Improved Sleep Quality: If you struggle with insomnia or restless sleep, acupuncture can be a beneficial treatment. It helps regulate sleep patterns by addressing underlying issues and promoting relaxation. Acupuncture and herbal prescriptions can be a powerful duo in helping you get to sleep easily and STAY asleep, feeling rested in the morning.
Support for Gynecological Concerns: Acupuncture can aid in alleviating menstrual irregularities, cramping, menopause symptoms, and fertility challenges. It works by balancing hormones and improving blood flow. I write more extensively about this below.
Immune System Boost: Regular acupuncture sessions can strengthen the immune system, making it easier for your body to fend off illnesses. This can be particularly beneficial during cold and flu season. And I love working with those that suffer from ‘Long Covid’ and related issues.
Allergy Relief: Many patients report decreased allergy symptoms with acupuncture. It helps alleviate sinus pressure, headaches, and other related discomforts by promoting greater airflow and reducing inflammation.
Enhanced Recovery: Athletes and active individuals can benefit from faster recovery times following injury or intense workouts. Acupuncture, gua sha, cupping and tai na (body work) helps reduce inflammation and promotes faster healing.
Mental Clarity and Focus: Acupuncture can enhance cognitive function by improving blood flow and reducing mental fatigue. This can lead to better concentration and productivity in daily life.
Autoimmune issues: Getting to the root of why we have autoimmune issues has been a passion of Amy’s for decades. She often combines, western, eastern traditions as well as her medical intuitive abilities to create a plan that works for each individual.

Fertility
Acupuncture and ATMAT® can be used to optimize fertility and to use alongside Reproductive therapies such as IVF, IUI and medicated cycles.
Working on conception and creating the most fertile you can be a roller coaster of emotions, stressful schedules and anxiety.

We are here to help you along that path. Whether its showing up for a transfer, helping you determine ovulation or helping to create a plan to get you baby ready. We are here and we are listening.
Enhancing fertility with acupuncture is shown to increase conception rates by:
Increasing blood flow to the uterus. This improves the chance of an ovum implanting on the uterine wall
Regulating the menstrual cycle. Balancing out the follicular and luteal phase allows for a healthier and more predictable ovulation
Positively affects the hypothalamic-pituitary-ovarian axis. This plays a key role in fertility
