The body’s innate wisdom takes precedence over what any of us think we know. Accessing, listening to and allowing that innate force to work is the priority in this Practice.

Why Acupuncture?

Through thousands of years of history, the practice of acupuncture has been used to treat illnesses of body and spirit. Originating in China over 5000 years ago, acupuncture was combined with herbal remedies to create a unified school of medicine that would become the cornerstone of an eastern healthcare philosophy as robust and defined as western medicine. Acupuncture promotes health and addresses disease through the restoration of the body’s natural systemic balance, utilizing a system of channels or meridians that touch and communicate with all parts of the body.

An acupuncturist gently inserts fine needles into specific points in the body, tapping into these channels; diffusing tension, stagnation and supporting organ function. Acupuncture has enjoyed growing popularity in the west. Its practitioners increasingly discover mutuality with western medical practice in many fields, enabling people of all ages, backgrounds and needs to attain peace and profound health benefits in the harmony between ancient and modern.

Trusted in healing

When I came to Sharon, I was in a traumatic state, experiencing significant hyper-vigilance, fear, and grief. Sharon’s care, combined with regular solo healing retreat time and therapy, enabled me to recover. Sharon’s work absolutely helped me get to a turning point where my symptoms were relieved and I could feel complete again.

I know experts say it can take several appointments to experience pain relief from acupuncture appointments but, after my first appointment with Sharon, I felt immediate relief for back pain I’ve had for decades. It was fantastic! And it was so nice to finally be heard after years of Western Medicine doctors telling me to just suck it up because there are no new treatments for relief.

In all three sessions that I have so far experienced in Sharon’s hands, I have had a necessary and profoundly deep healing and release. Her manner is firm yet gentle, invasive as needed yet respectful, informed, responsive and inspired. She is a master alchemist in her craft and a powerful healer. I am a grateful beneficiary of her gifts.
