Traditional Chinese Medicine (TCM) originated in ancient China more than 2,000 years ago. It is a healing system of Eastern medicine that brings balance to our bodies and strengthens it's natural defenses, allowing for healing to occur and for our bodies to maintain good health. See below to learn more about the TCM treatments we offer.
Chinese acupuncture, a part of TCM, or Oriental Medicine, is one of the oldest healing practices in existence. It is used to promote health and balance in our bodies by stimulating "Qi" (pronounced "chee") through acupuncture points and meridians - pathways of qi in the human body. Relieving blockages and restoring balance in the body and mind, allows qi to flow freely, and helps the body heal pain and disease naturally.
A more recently developed treatment that is used alongside more traditional TCM treatments, Electrical Stimulation Therapy, or electroacupuncture, is increasingly popular. It is an acupuncture technique used to treat a wide variety of conditions. A major advantage of Electrical Stimulation is that the insertion of acupuncture needles does not need to be quite as precise, as the current coming through the needle is stimulating a larger area than the needle normally would on its own.Similar to traditional acupuncture, and much more effective than using a tens unit pad, needles are inserted at points on the body.
Herbal medicine and herbal supplements have been used in Traditional Chinese Medicine, and also in many cultures for thousands of years. Herbs and naturally derived medicines have been proven to be both safe and effective in treating myriad conditions as well as for the maintaining overall health. At the Center, we prescribe the highest quality herbals and supplements available to help our patients achieve a state of health and balance.

I completed a couple months of acupuncture treatments with Ed as part of trying to solve for 10 months of secondary infertility in a more naturopathic way before seeking western techniques. I did conceive successfully after those 2 months and am experiencing a healthy pregnancy so far! I was making a few lifestyle changes at the same time so it's hard to say what finally worked to convince my body it was ready to carry a baby but I'd like to think acupuncture was a part of it! And the experience at Brookfield Acupuncture Center was a pleasant one.

I went to see Ed for some reflux and anxiety issues. After just a few sessions, I am feeling so much better. He is very knowledgeable and takes time to listen. His supplement suggestions have been very helpful. I look forward to my appointments and always leave feeling focused and peaceful. I can see acupuncture being an important part of my health regimen moving forward and since this was my first experience, I am glad Ed was there to guide me through it. Very grateful!

My mom had really bad anxiety and sleep insomnia. She would go days without sleep, and it was starting to really affect her daily life. She tried a verity of different treatments, but none of them really seemed to make a long lasting effect. Eventually, I took her to Brookfield acupuncture, and she has been doing so well ever since! She sleeps every night now.
There are times where she says she does struggle to fall asleep, but she does manage to get good sleep every night. I'm very hopeful that accupuncture will continue to better her sleeping and over all mood.

I have had lower back pain and meds were not helping. I looked at previous reviews on Brookfield acupuncture Center. The acupuncturist is very good in finding the correct area. My back was in terrible shape so went for a 2 nd session and it helped immensely. His manners in assisting you are very thoughtful.
