What is Acupuncture?
Acupuncture is one of the oldest forms of medicine in the world. It is the insertion of fine, sterile, single-use, filiform needles into the body to regulate the body and instigate a healing response. When administered, the body will release natural feel good chemicals like dopamine and endorphins to help patients relax and enter into a healing state (parasympathetic nervous response.

"Rebecca is amazing! I've struggled with pain management from endo for as long as I can remember and have tried almost everything in the book to get relief, including numerous surgeries. After just a few short months of working with her, she has helped me to get a point where I am pain free, which I never thought would be possible! She is dedicated to helping me get my pain and other health challenges under control and I can tell she is very passionate about what she does. I recommend everyone to go see her!"
"I originally went to Oasis to stop my period pain. But Rebecca also helped relieve my chronic constipation, fatigue, and anxiety. She really listened to me and has given me a new lease on life! I can't recommend her enough. If you have been on the fence about trying acupuncture, don't be, it really works. "

FAQ
How long will it take to get results?
Every case is different but we can confidently say that 70% of our patients report decreases in their symptoms within the first week of treatment. While with others it may take a couple of weeks, but we love a challenge. Long term, permanent resolution of severe conditions such as endometriosis, fibroids, and PCOS generally takes 6-9 months. However, if you are suffering symptoms that are are acute and recent, generally 2-6 treatments is all it takes.
​

Although Acupuncture and Traditional Chinese Herbal Medicine is a 3000+ year old Eastern Medicine practice it is relatively new in the USA.
