We at Prickly Pear Acupuncture focus on providing individualized holistic (whole person) health care. We spend 15 – 30 minutes face-​to-​face with each of our patients every visit. This time is spent asking all the necessary questions to determine the root cause of your issue and develop a treatment plan specific to you. We use a combination of acupuncture, herbs, dietary supplements, as well as dietary & life style recommendations to create long lasting results. Our approach is designed to help those with difficult and complex conditions and to provide you with the attention and care that you need to be a better you. Specialties include: asthma, sleep issues, digestive disorders, and post-​stroke recovery.
