Acupuncture

Acupuncture at OM

Acupuncture has been used for centuries to treat pain, reduce stress and support the body’s natural ability to heal. 

We offer traditional acupucture, electroacupuncture and cosmetic facial rejuvenation acupuncture treatments. 

There are physiological effects that research has recognized such as increasing T-blood cell count, relieving pain, increasing blood flow to targeted areas and decreasing inflammation. Acupuncture supports your body’s natural mechanisms, proving helpful for those seeking treatment for mental health, pain, insomnia, sore muscles, reproductive health for men and women, and more. 

Acupuncture treatments are relaxing. Some patients fall asleep. You will relax on a comfortable table listening to soft music, surrounded by plants, while our Naturopathic doctors take the very best care of you. 

Traditional Acupuncture

Very fine needles are placed at specific points along meridian lines. Many report not being able to feel them at all. Acupuncture aims to restore homeostasis and regulation to your body’s systems, and stimulate healing. 

Electroacupuncture

An electrostim machine is used to send gentle stimulation to the acupuncture needles once they are placed. This is highly effective to increase blood flow to targeted areas and relieve pain. This is a wonderful gentle treatment for sore muscles and joints. 

Cosmetic Facial Rejuvenation Acupuncture

A natural solution to more invasive cosmetic treatments. Stimulate blood flow and collagen production. Firm and plump skin and achieve a healthy glow! Enjoy an hour with a scalp and facial massage, stimulating guasha stones and cooling jade rollers. Very small facial acupuncture needles are used to target fine lines and wrinkles for targeted treatment. Red light therapy to boost cell production. Melt into our cozy tables and enjoy an hour of selfcare, just for you. 

Labour Induction

If you are near your due date or past, labour induction acupuncture is a wonderful way to support your labour and delivery. Studies show that acupuncture during the final weeks of pregnancy can result in a faster less painful labour, reduces the chances of induction, intervention and cesarean and helps reduce the feelings of anxiety. Please reach out if you’ve got any questions about this service. We work together with your team to support your experience!
