  It seems today we can easily find ourselves getting caught up in an ever complicated world. But even over a couple thousand years ago they were treating stress. Doctors of Chinese Medicine only used herbs and acupuncture as a last resort, after diet and lifestyle were primarily addressed. My practice begins with this concept. Promoting Hawaii alternative health and wellness as much as possible.

Doctor friendly. Acupuncture does not only work wonderfully alone, but also excellent with other medicines and healing arts.

  My practice honors each individual's wants and needs with the goal to create better health.

"What if I'm afraid of needles?"

  Know your options. Needles are just one of the ways to practice traditional Chinese medicine (TCM). There is also herbal medicine, QiGong, Tai Qi, Tui Na or Chinese massage, tuning forks in place of needles, essential oils, Moxabustion, Gua Sha etc. and of course diet and lifestyle. You may want to also just try needles gently and slowly so that it feels right for you.

"Can children benefit from Acupuncture?"

  Yes! Children usually heal as quick as they get ill or hurt. In TCM this age is regarded as very yang in nature. Some children as young as infants benefit from a single needle and others from just touching pressure points, acupressure or tui na. There are other tools as mentioned above, specifically tuning forks that are kid friendly and fun.

"Does my insurance cover Acupuncture?"

  Everybody's insurance is different. Ask your insurance company about acupuncture options, if applicable I will be listed as a provider. Blu Jade Acupuncture is insured and is a provider for HMAA, and Humana. I can also provide a "superbill" that you can give your insurance provider.

This ancient medicinal art not only creates a solid foundation for health, but with safe, gentle manipulation, it has been known to ease and safely, effectively treat many ailments. Weight loss, emotional imbalance, addictions, drug and alcohol recovery, pain are just a few, etc.
