Acupuncture

Acupuncture stimulates the body's neuroendocrine system through sterile needles to restore homeostasis, proven effective for hormonal imbalances, chronic pain, and stress-related conditions. Treatments integrate traditional Chinese medicine principles with Western anatomical understanding to address root causes through 2000-year-old techniques validated by modern research. Each session targets specific meridians that regulate Qi flow and systemic health.

Herbal Medicine

Customized herbal formulations use medicinalsourced plants to address hormonal imbalances, digestive issues, and immune support. We combine traditional TCM formulations with modern pharmacognosy to create individualized protocols that complement acupuncture treatments. All botanicals undergo rigorous quality control to ensure potency and safety while working synergistically with the body's natural healing processes.

Holistic Women's Health

Specialized care addresses women's health across all life stages through integrated treatments for menstrual irregularities, fertility challenges, and menopausal transitions. Our approach combines acupuncture with functional lab testing to identify hormone imbalances, creating targeted interventions that optimize health and vitality through proven natural methodologies.

Orthopedic Acupuncture

Orthopedic acupuncture combines TCM principles with Western anatomy to treat musculoskeletal pain by releasing trigger points and improving circulation. This evidence-based approach uses microcurrent stimulation to accelerate tissue healing, effectively addressing sports injuries, chronic pain, and post-surgical rehabilitation through targeted needle placement in muscle motor points.

Functional Lab Testing

Advanced diagnostic testing uses dried urine and saliva samples to assess hormone levels, metabolic markers, and gut health. Partnering with DUTCH and ZRT Labs, we create data-driven treatment protocols that track progress and personalize interventions for optimal health outcomes through comprehensive, science-backed analysis methods.

I had always been hesitant to try acupuncture until our new insurance included treatment as part of our wellness plan. I was so grateful to have Ann Marie work on me that I hardly noticed her "tools" being used. My stiff neck and shoulders began to relax following my first treatment and I couldn't be happier! I'm now a firm believer thanks to Ann Marie. Her skill and calm manner makes the whole procedure strangely enjoyable. 5 Stars for Ann Marie Blanchard at 3 Seeds Acupuncture! Tell a friend!

Ann-Marie has been fantastic in helping me cope with ongoing symptoms of endometriosis! In addition, she was a great support when I went through a stressful life and career transition. Acupuncture is one of my go-to self care tools and Ann-Marie is wonderfully warm and gentle. I feel nurtured and supported in her hands.

As an holistic practitioner it is rewarding to have a skilled, caring and resourceful referral for my clients. Her treatments are very personalized and the studio and treatment rooms are very tranquil.

Ann-Marie is such a fantastic role model for her clients in addition to being a wealth of knowledge--especially with respect to women's health, hormones, and well-being. I'm so grateful to have her on my team of health care providers.

Ann-Marie is a great practitioner of acupuncture and other eastern healing practices (i.e., cupping). I saw her for a number of visits around sport related ailments (shoulder and back mainly) and found relief, long lasting relief that gave me the ability to work on those areas from a conditioning standpoint thereby strengthening the joints in my shoulders and developing core stability. The side benefit, or perhaps the main benefit that I did not expect was the overall physical sensation of wellness I experienced post-treatment. Go see her, and get beyond the needles and fears and experience what

Ann-Marie has helped me with a wide variety of aches, pains, and my overall health and wellbeing. I've been working with her for the past year on helping me achieve optimal health through coaching on diet, exercise, and creating more balance through acupuncture and supplements. Whenever I have a specific pain in my body, she treats it with cupping and most often the pain is alleviated after 1 session. She has a wealth of knowledge and I trust her advice and expertise.

I was suffering with sciatic pain in my lower back after I would walk. I have had a laminectomy at L3 & L4 in the past and now I have stenosis of the spine in that area. I had a series of treatments from Ann Marie at the end of 2016 and it's April and I'm still pain free! Thank you Ann Marie, you are a life saver!
