Common Questions
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.
Why haven't I ever heard acupuncture helps with my condition before?
Although Acupuncture and Traditional Chinese Herbal Medicine is a 3000+ year old Eastern Medicine practice it is relatively new in the USA. The scientific model of Western Medicine is about 200 years old. While Western medicine is king when it comes to life saving surgeries and antibiotics, Eastern medicine is king for prevention and healing sickness. You will find Acupuncture and TCM to be a very enlightening process, helping you to understand how to take care of your body, and prevent sickness throughout your life.

"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. "

"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!"

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). It helps reduce pain, inflammation, and stress in the body. Acupuncture, when performed by a licensed acupuncturist (L.Ac.) is completely safe and effective.
Herbal Medicine
Chinese Medicinal Herbs heal much deeper than acupuncture alone. They are safe to take during pregnancy. We dispense them in capsule, topical, and in tea form.
If you have exhausted your options with western medicine and have still not found relief, or if natural healing is your preference, Chinese medicine may be for you. Our patients feel it is exactly what they've been missing and are leading healthier lives because of it.
Our herbs are FDA regulated have strict purity and safety testing to protect our patients and ensure their medicinal quality. All of the herbs in our dispensary are only obtained via board licensed acupuncturists. Click here to read about our herbs quality.
Cupping Therapy
Cupping therapy is an ancient therapy used for millennia by the Egyptians and the Chinese.
With this method the skin is gently drawn upwards by creating a vacuum in a cup over the target area- usually the back, but can also be on the limbs. The cup stays in place for five to fifteen minutes, or using oil the cups slide across the body surface to release deep tension. It used to help treat pain, decrease anxiety, help decrease the emotions of PTSD and trauma- in other words, its fantastic and feels great.
