A few facts about Acupuncture & Chinese Medicine

Whether the source of illness is physical, emotional, or spiritual, Chinese medical treatment can bring about the healing of not only your primary complaint but the many minor discomforts that may have accompanied it.

Acupuncture works very well with Western biomedical protocols, and Elijah Hawken has considerable experience working alongside Medical Doctors, Registered Nurses, and Licensed Counselors in several different clinical settings. Chinese medicine can accelerate recovery from surgery, strengthen the immune system, and alleviate many of the unwanted side-effects of conventional treatment of major illnesses such as Hepatitis C and cancer.

Acupuncture treatments are cumulative – each treatment builds on the previous one to restore you to health.

Chinese medical treatment is a sound investment toward your continuing health. It is a preventative medicine, and if you do become ill, it can restore your health and well-being. When compared to the cost of pharmaceuticals, Chinese medical treatment is not only affordable, but can improve your primary concern as well as restore your overall well-being without the harmful side-effects that often result from taking prescription drugs.

The time, money, and commitment put toward Chinese medical treatment restores health, increases energy, reduces stress, and has even been proven to reduce the amount of sick-leave taken from work. Over time, Chinese medical treatment often proves much more economical than conventional medical approaches to treating illness.

What People Say About Us

"As a boxing photographer, I put my body in some pretty unnatural positions trying to get the shot. Eventually, I developed chronic pain in my neck – a hazard of the trade, or so I was told. I suffered with this pain on a daily basis for two years and considered a change in careers until, on the recommendation of a friend, I made an appointment with Ms. Hawken. I have to admit, I was skeptical at first, but no more. After a few treatments the pain and stiffness in my neck were gone. The procedure was painless, drug-free and actually quite relaxing. Not only have I returned to Ms. Hawken for successful treatments in other areas but, after two years, my neck remains pain-free. I find Ms. Hawken to be personable, professional, and immensely qualified. I highly recommend her health-care treatment."

Chris H.

"After 6 months of having a paralyzed vocal cord and not being able to speak without a microphone or breathe correctly, Ms. Hawken treated me with acupuncture for 5 sessions. After the first session, I had a partial-voice back within 5 days. Within 7 weeks I had 95% of my voice back! I do believe the acupuncture did the trick!"

L.M.

"When I first started getting acupuncture, I had chronic back pain, tightness in my neck and shoulders so badly that sometimes I could not even turn my head. Also I had such bad menstrual cycles that there would be a few days each month that I could not even get out bed. I had had these problems for several years, and I had tried several different methods of treatment, which either did not work at all or only masked my symptoms and gave me short periods of relief. I received acupuncture treatments regularly over a period of several months – after each session I felt much better, and finally my aches, pains and hormonal problems went away completely. Now I actually wake up in the morning feeling great. Acupuncture has also successfully treated me for bladder infections and the common cold. I am a firm believer in the art of acupuncture, and in Elijah’s ability to practice acupuncture."

Brandy H.

"I had heavy periods that left me so tired every month that I felt like I spent two weeks of every four just needing to sleep. I also began experiencing panic attacks and migraine headaches. After seeing Elijah for acupuncture and herbal treatment, my periods are easy, shorter in duration and I no longer feel tired. The panic attacks are completely gone and I only have occasional, mild migraine symptoms that clear up within a few hours. Thank you!"

Katrina D.

"I’ve suffered from chronic neck and back problems for several years, and while I’ve sought various treatments, I was still in pain. A trusted friend recommended that I see Elijah for acupuncture treatment. When I first met her, I liked Elijah immediately, but more than that, I was impressed with her professionalism and knowledge. She answered all my questions, calmed my slight anxiety, and explained everything. It is no exaggeration to say that I found relief from my very first treatment. Each successive treatment brings improvement in my range of motion and a further reduction in my symptoms and pain. I’m feeling much better, and I am grateful to Elijah. I recommend her to you without reservation."
