“I was skeptical of acupuncture, but meeting Julie immediately alleviated my doubts.”

“It is impossible to fully convey Julie’s positive influence, not only on my journey to motherhood but on my overall well-being. She took the time to review my history and lifestyle. As someone who seeks control, Julie gently eased me into the process, even staying in the room during my second appointment to get a sense of how my body was responding to treatment. Although I sought out Julie for fertility challenges, as a psychologist, I was truly in awe of the effects on my mental health. While the acupuncture was transformative, immediately quelling anxiety, being able to speak with Julie is so special. She is one of a kind. The support she provided remained with me as I tried to conceive, through miscarriage, throughout my current pregnancy, and as I envision life as a first-time mom. Although struggling to get pregnant was riddled with major lows and fears, Julie remained a bright spot in the experience and certainly boosted my ability to grow from the trying moments. I cannot thank and recommend her enough! ”

Acupuncture is a holistic healing that considers your whole body

Acupuncture can be a helpful tool for individuals who feel "stuck" in their journey to wellness due to chronic or acute conditions. While traditional medical treatments may not always be effective, acupuncture offers a holistic approach that addresses the underlying imbalances or disruptions in the body's energy that may be contributing to the condition.

Through the stimulation of specific points in the body, acupuncture can help to restore balance and flow to the body's energy, which can lead to a reduction in symptoms and an overall improvement in health. Additionally, the process of receiving acupuncture can be deeply relaxing and therapeutic, which can help to reduce stress and promote a sense of well-being.

If you feel alone or isolated in your journey to wellness, acupuncture can also offer a supportive and compassionate environment. Dr. Julie takes a holistic and patient-centered approach, working with her patients to address their unique needs and concerns. This can help to foster a sense of connection and partnership in the healing process.

Dr. Von’s goal is to help identify your symptoms by exploring their story. When did they start? How long have you been experiencing them? What was happening in your life when you first started feeling this way?

Then, by using her medical training as well as her intuitive gift she discovers the root cause, the epicenter of dis-ease, and begins to help heal you at the deepest and oldest level. When the root of illness is identified and healed, everything changes.

In the past, our patients came to us with health problems such as:

Chronic Pain & Headaches

Acupuncture has been found to be effective in treating chronic pain, including back pain, neck pain, and osteoarthritis. It can also decrease the strength and frequency of headaches & migraines.

Anxiety & Depression

Acupuncture has the power to help with depression and anxiety by promoting the flow of energy (Qi) throughout the body and regulating the balance of neurotransmitters and hormones.

Fertility Issues

High-stress levels can negatively affect fertility. Acupuncture promotes relaxation, reduces anxiety, and supports emotional well-being, creating a more favorable environment for conception.

Sleep Problems

By balancing hormone levels, acupuncture can help regulate sleep patterns and improve overall sleep quality. Additionally, we may provide guidance on sleep hygiene and lifestyle modifications.

Addiction

 Acupuncture has been used as a complementary treatment for addiction, helping to reduce cravings and withdrawal symptoms.

Digestive Disorders

Acupuncture helps with digestive issues by regulating digestive function, reducing inflammation, and relieving pain in the gastrointestinal tract.

Frequently Asked Questions

  • Traditional Chinese Medicine explains that health is the result of a harmonious balance between “yin” and “yang” of the life force known as “qi,” pronounce “chi.” When a person gets sick, it’s believed to be the result of an imbalance of these energies. Qi is said to flow through meridians or pathways throughout the body. These meridians and energy flows can be accessed through 350 different acupuncture points in the body. By inserting needles in various patterns and areas on the body, it’s believed to bring the energy flow back into proper balance.

  • Acupuncture does not hurt. In most cases, you will not even know the needles are in place. Once the needles are in place, you can feel heaviness in the area around the needle, a sign that the body's energy is being stimulated and redirected which can be beneficial for healing. During the treatment, most patients find acupuncture extremely relaxing and many fall asleep during the treatment.

  • The number of acupuncture sessions needed to see results is based on the individual, the specific condition being treated, and the severity of the condition. In general, our patients feel improvement after the first few acupuncture sessions. However, for chronic or more complex conditions, it may take longer to see significant improvement.
