Traditional Chinese Medicine
Traditional Chinese Medicine (TCM) has provided effective natural healthcare for over 3,000 years and it is the oldest documented medicine in the world. It is a unique holistic system that promotes health by restoring balance within the body.
Chinese medicine is considered complementary, and is frequently used with Western Medicine. It is safe, clinically proven, and effective. It is especially useful when patients have not adequately responded to conventional medicine or therapy.
The most commonly used treatment methods within Traditional Chinese Medicine are Acupuncture and Herbal Medicine, which are ProActive Acupuncture’s specialties.

Herbal Medicine
Acupuncture is a procedure involving the insertion of fine, painless needles into specific points along the body to increase circulation, restore balance, reduce pain and improve overall health.
Used frequently with Western Medicine, Acupuncture is a safe, natural, holistic method that can be effective in treating a wide variety of health conditions.
Acupuncture is accessible and affordable. Currently, most medical insurances provide coverage. At ProActive Acupuncture, we accept all medical insurances, workers compensation, auto injury, and patients paying out of pocket.
Our staff is available to answer any further questions, verify your insurance coverage, and schedule your first appointment!
Herbal medicine is considered the most effective and versatile modality within Traditional Chinese Medicine. By utilizing the powerful medicinal properties found in plants and minerals, herbal medicine naturally treats a wide variety of medical conditions and increases the rate of recovery from surgery or injury as well.
Researched and documented for centuries, herbal medicine is safe when administered correctly by a licensed practitioner. Unlike nutritional supplements and conventional pharmaceuticals, each herbal prescription is uniquely designed to suit the specific needs of the individual. Modern herbal medicine is also convenient as it is commonly administered in capsule, powder, or tincture form.
Our practitioners may prescribe herbal medicine along with acupuncture treatment to increase and enhance treatment results.
