Return to the simple things that bring you joy, without the discomfort of neuropathy. One patient felt the sand beneath her feet this summer without pain. Another can walk barefoot in the morning without feeling like she's walking on rocks.

O3 ReBoot Therapy is a medical treatment that introduces O3, a highly reactive form of oxygen, into the body with the intention of promoting healing and reducing inflammation by stimulating the immune and antioxidant systems. This therapy is an effective way to enhance oxygen delivery to the body, modulate inflammation, activate antioxidants, support the body in fighting infections, and aid in promoting tissue repair.

Sadly, our warm days are numbered. Those with joint stiffness and arthritic pain who often experience a reprieve through the summer months (as the sunshine literally warms our bones) are already feeling the effects of the seasons changing.

If the cold bothers your joints or if the damp, rainy days flare up an old knee injury or make your hands ache, treatments with SpringRoot can be a welcomed support through the fall and winter. Acupuncture can counteract the cold (you'll see!), reduce inflammation, increase circulation and improve how the body responds to those damp, cold days. Our patients report feeling overall more resilient and tolerant of temperature changes.

15 minute consultations are complimentary. We would love to work with you!

Here's a great article on the importance of creating and maintaining knee health!

Our knees are arguably one of our most important joints. Here’s how to strengthen them: https://bbc.in/3IRuLGR

We have been led to believe that discomfort, mood swings, cramps, and pain with our cycle is "normal". As early as our teenage years we're told that over the counter medications and even birth control can make it better. At best, these mask the symptoms that are a sign of imbalance.

Acupuncture reduces PMS symptoms, including pain, bloating, mood swings, and fatigue by balancing hormones, improving blood flow to the pelvic area, and reducing inflammation. Many of our patients see a reduction of physical symptoms, such as pain, bloating, and breast tenderness, improved mood and reduction in anxiety and depression, a decrease in fatigue and insomnia (and improvement in overall energy), and a reduced need for medications.

Acupuncture is frequently considered as a treatment for pain, but many don't realize how well it can reduce, or even alleviate, seasonal allergy symptoms. Acupuncture can regulate the immune system, reduce inflammation, and decrease histamine release.

Studies found that acupuncture was effective in reducing allergy symptoms such as nasal congestion, sneezing, and itchy eyes. Another study found that acupuncture improved nasal airflow and reduced the need for allergy medications.

Many of our patients have been able to lessen the intensity of their symptoms and even become symptom free with treatment.

Reach out for a complimentary consultation. Let's see how we can help you!

"I started with SpringRoot Acupuncture after completing chemotherapy treatment. I had lingering neuropathy symptoms from the chemo treatment. After the first acupuncture session, I felt incredibly better not just with the neuropathy but my body as a whole felt better. After a few weeks of acupuncture my neuropathy went away altogether. I believe my body recovered much quicker than it would have if I hadn’t gone to acupuncture. Rachel is a true healer. She listens to your concerns and provides a supportive environment to restore your health and well being."
