Acupuncture uses hair-thin, flexible needles, inserted into specific points on the body to activate the body's own healing powers. Several thousand years ago, East Asian practitioners discovered that the body forms disharmonies as a result of the various physical and mental stresses of life. Oriental medical theory explains these disharmonies as an imbalance of opposing forces called yin and yang.

Charlene Wark has been working in the medical field for over 20 years, doing a variety of technical skills and customer service. Because of family health issues, she chose to pursue more natural effective treatments for the whole body. Her journey began with Therapeutic Massage at Irene's Myomassology Institute and continued with the study of Reiki and Oncology Massage at Beaumont Hospital.

Chinese herbs are often used in conjunction with acupuncture for added therapeutic effect. While many cultures have herbal medicine traditions, the sophistication of Chinese herbal medicine is unsurpassed. Chinese herbal medicine has a long history reaching back several thousand years, and the resulting system is now used to treat everything from the common cold to certain types of cancer.
