Applying acupuncture needlesTraditional Chinese medicine explains that health is the result of a harmonious balance of the complementary extremes of yin and yan of the life force known as gi or chi. Qi is said to flow through meridians (pathways) in the human body. Through 350 acupuncture points in the body, these meridians and energy flows may be accessed. Illness is said to be the consequence of an imbalance of the forces. If needles are inserted into these points with appropriate combinations it is said that the energy flow can be brought back into proper balance.

In Western societies and several other parts of the world, acupuncture is explained including concepts of neuroscience. Acupuncture points are seen by Western practitioners as places where nerves, muscles and connective tissue can be stimulated. Acupuncture practitioners say that the stimulation increases bloodflow while at the same time triggering the activity of our own body’s natural painkillers.

Dr. Lori also offers Battlefield Acupuncture (BFA).

Battlefield Acupuncture (BFA) is a rapid, drug-free pain management technique developed for military use and now widely adopted in clinical practice. It involves placing small ASP needles at specific ear points to quickly reduce pain, often within minutes. The method is minimally invasive, opioid-sparing, and suitable for older adults. BFA is effective for various conditions, including back pain, arthritis, neuropathic pain, headaches, postoperative pain, fibromyalgia, cancer-related pain and acute injuries.
