Acupuncture
This widely used form of Traditional Chinese Medicine (TCM) promotes natural healing and enhanced functioning through stimulation by using very fine filaments on defined parts of the body, known as meridians. Meridians are thought to be energetically-connected to organs, structures and systems throughout the body. Tapping into these pressure points releases blockages, causes the energy to circulate and restores balance within the body. 

If you are interested in scheduling a consultation with our TCM specialists please call The Wege Institute for Mind, Body and Spirit at 616-685-6923.
