Physical Pain
If you have one particular symptom usually musculoskeletal, joint pain, sport related or accident related injury like whiplash and want to focus just on this particular problem we offer acupuncture treatment following a brief problem-centered evaluation. Acupuncture can be with or without micro-electrical stimulation focused on this specific problem area followed by tui-na (Chinese body work technique).
General Internal Health
If you have general health issues related to digestive problems, allergies, frequent lung infections, frequent colds, etc. we offer acupuncture treatments in conjunction with herbs and supplements. First we do a thorough evaluation according to TCM (Traditional Chinese Medicine) principles to get to the root of your problems; then a specific treatment plan would be tailored toward your condition.
Supportive Care
If you are under the care of a primary care physician and on medications, and want to support your general health and continue your medications, we offer acupuncture as a way of improving effectiveness of medications by getting them to the places they need to go through improved blood circulation. It may reduce the amount of required medication dosage and side effects.
Preventive Wellness
If you are interested in prevention we offer wellness treatments usually 1 acupuncture treatment per month with some nutraceutical/herbal interventions that you will continue doing at home. You will be evaluated according to principles of TCM (Traditional Chinese Medicine) to find your "affected organ" and basic patterns in your energy system. Your preventive acupuncture treatments will be tailored to your pattern.
Stress Management
If you are interested in stress reduction and "brain health" mainly reducing the effects of increased stress hormones levels on your body and brain we offer acupuncture, herbal, and nutraceutical therapies.
You may request a consultation without having an acupuncture treatment if you:
Have some concerns about your health because of family history or some unexplained symptoms with all medical work up being negative. We can assess you from a more holistic/functional medical approach and may order some functional tests to see how your body is getting rid of toxins or why it is generating too much chronic inflammation, etc. There are also some diagnostic tests that we can order to see what is your risk for diabetes far before your blood glucose goes up or even test to assess your risk for dementia.
We all provide acupuncture treatments and integrative treatments using nutraceuticals, vitamins in addition to or instead of medications but also have some interest/expertise in some areas for example Dr. Mick Mikicki specializes in men's health issues like prostate health, Dr. Brandon Smith in musculoskeletal pains and infertility treatments, Dr. Barbara Mikicki in brain related issues such as depressive symptoms, fatigue, memory and concentration, etc.
