The Chinese science of healing has been around for over 5000 years. The ancient Chinese believed that disease or illness is present when there is an imbalance of the Chi. Chi (vital energy) circulates in 12 pathways or meridians that are linked to specific organs. The acupuncturist places needles into the appropriate acupuncture points along the involved meridians to release the blocked energy and help balance the body's energy. Today, modern medicine has learned that this ancient procedure is an effective alternative procedure to alleviate pain and other problems.

Dr. Eric S. Mininsohn, a certified chiropractic sports physician for 14 years, has gone a step further in his quest to relieve pain and become a certified acupunturist. Acupuncture is approved by the World Health Organization of the United Nations and the National Institutes of Health for many conditions. Mental and emotional problems such as addictions to food, tobacco, alcohol or drugs, anxiety, depression,

insomnia and stress are treatable with acupuncture. Musculoskeletal and neurological conditions treatable by acupuncture include:arthritis, back pain, Bell's palsy, bursitis, fibromyalgia, headache, neuralgia, pain management, sciatica, sprains, stiff neck, tendonitis and carpal tunnel syndrome.

THE CHIROPRACTIC APPROACH
Chiropractic is based on the fact that your nervous system controls the function of every cell, tissue, organ and system of your body. The 24 moving bones of the spine help protect the spinal cord and central nervous system. Many every day activities, as well as accidents, can cause these bones to lose their normal position and motion, resulting in nervous system dysfunction and ill health

Chiropractic care has been shown to be safer than aspirin, muscle relaxers, or back surgery, and is more effective than prolonged bed rest, traction, or physical therapy.
Chiropractic treats the cause (nervous system dysfunction) of the problem, not just the symptom (pain). Chiropractic care involves gentle adjustments to restore proper nervous system functioning. Heat, ice, muscle and soft tissue manipulation, nutritional advice advice, exercises and electric muscle stimulation, ultrasound therapy and other procedures may also be used to help restore your natural health.
