Balance Point
Acupuncture and Wellness Center incorporates the wisdom and tradition of Oriental Medicine with functional medicine and food
derived nutrition. The combination of authentic acupuncture, real-whole-food nutrients and potent herbs DO produce changes
in your biochemistry, your mental outlook and your emotional well-being.
We all need a little more balance...some of
the tools utilized at Balance Point are:
Oriental medicine- one of the oldest and most respected medical systems in the world. Its framework is well defined from the contributions
of countless generations and lineages. Acupuncture and Oriental medicine theory are of our most valued tools from the Orient.
Nutrients- found in proteins, fats, and carbohydrates (and more specifically amino acids) give us the minerals and vitamins necessary
to provide the fundamental building blocks in our bodies that are required from the environment to support normal bodily processes
and functions.
Herbs- phytotherapy temporarily alters bio-chemical processes in the body through the use of phenols, tannins, alkaloids for example.
In this way, herbs temporarily create changes in the (chemical) processes of the body, often supplying the body with outside
ingredients needed to bring the body back into balance (such as using a broad spectrum herbal antimicrobial for acute infections
or circulation improving herbs for poor blood circulation).
Common laboratory tests include hair analysis (for mineral and metal ratios), saliva testing (for hormones, etc.), and blood profiles. We also tests
for parasites and food intolerances when indicated.
