Exploring Acupuncture

Here at Bright Hope Counseling, we only employ low level light class IIIa lasers.  In other words, a person can experience all the benefits of acupuncture without experiencing any pain or fear of needles.   There is absolutely no risk or negative side effects.   A traditional acupuncture appointment takes anywhere between 30 minutes to an hour depending on the type of treatment.  With our lasers, we can get the same amount of work done in under 15 minutes. 

The following is taking directly from the World Health Organization of what Acupuncture has been studied and able to treat:
1. Diseases, symptoms or conditions for which acupuncture has been proved-through controlled trials-to be an effective treatment:
  • Adverse reactions to radiotherapy and/or chemotherapy
  • Allergic rhinitis (including hay fever)

  • Dysentery, acute bacillary
