BODY ACUPUNCTURE Bellevue, WA
What is Acupuncture?
Acupuncture is an ancient practice that originated in China over 2,500 years ago. The earliest known record of acupuncture dates back to the Han Dynasty in 100 BCE, but it is believed to have been practiced even earlier than that. Acupuncture was originally used to treat a variety of medical conditions, including pain, digestive disorders, and respiratory problems. Over time, acupuncture spread to other parts of Asia, including Japan and Korea, and eventually made its way to the West in the 17th century. Today, acupuncture is recognized as a safe and effective form of complementary medicine and is widely used to treat a variety of health conditions.
​
It is based on the idea that a life force called "Qi" flows through energy pathways in the body known as meridians, which correspond to different organs and bodily functions. Maintaining a proper flow of Qi is essential for good health and well-being. In Chinese medicine, Qi also balances yin and yang, two complementary forces that exist in all things. An imbalance of Qi can cause disease, but inserting needles at specific points along the meridians can restore balance and promote healing. These acupuncture points are located close to the skin's surface and can help unblock energy flow.
​
During your initial acupuncture appointment, your acupuncturist will conduct a comprehensive evaluation of your health. This may include taking a detailed medical history, examining your pulse at various points along the wrist, and observing the shape, color, and coating of your tongue. Additionally, the acupuncturist may assess the color and texture of your skin, your posture, and other physical characteristics that offer insight into your overall health and well-being. This information helps the acupuncturist develop an individualized treatment plan that addresses your specific needs and goals.

The visit to Dr. Lin was a very pleasant experience. He's a very caring healer that listens patiently. He explained to me the issues that my body was encountering internally and what the treatment will look like and how it'll help me heal, not just to rid of the symptoms but to get better as a whole.

Very caring doctors, they listen and take time to educate me on acupuncture, why and how in detail. Very friendly staff. I am going there to manage my stress and sleep better - after the first session, I started sleeping much better.

HopeSpring Wellness changed my life for the better! I went to see Dr. Naomi Floyd with debilitating tailbone pain after trying many things, including physical therapy. Within one month, I was able to sit without a doughnut pillow, and within a few months, my tailbone pain was completely gone!

After the first visit with Dr. Lin, I was able to reduce the dosage on my nerve blocker and pain medication. After the second visit, I was about to completely stop the nerve blocker and only was taking ibuprofen at night, but still had numbness in my hand. It only took 4 sessions to recuperate 100% and the best part is that I haven't had to take anything at all.
