North Seattle Community Acupuncture

There’s an old Chinese Medical saying: “Where there’s stagnation, there will be a pain. Remove the stagnation, and you remove the pain.” Acupuncture is terrific for removing stagnation, but it’s not the only tool for the job. Sometimes, we use cups, scrapers, or massage to move what’s stuck. What’s selected depends on the patient, the practitioner, and the problem to be solved.
