How acupuncture in Northern Kentucky can help you


Acupuncture is not a new form of medicine. In fact, it has been used for more than 3,000 years to treat a wide variety of symptoms and medical conditions, providing relief from pain and increased healing. Acupuncture works by stimulating your body’s natural energy, to increase circulation and promote healing of tissues and organs. Your Acupuncturist at Pure Health in Union, Kentucky want to help you discover how acupuncture can help you.

Women Getting Acupuncture

We begin your acupuncture treatment by inserting sterile, ultra-thin needles at exact points along your body’s meridians, or energy centers, to release energy to your affected areas. After your initial acupuncture treatment, additional visits are recommended to increase and maintain healing.


According to the World Health Organization (WHO), through a series of clinical trials, acupuncture has been shown to be an effective treatment of many medical conditions, including:


  • Pain of the lower back and neck
  • Sciatica and knee pain
  • Rheumatoid arthritis
  • Tennis elbow and sprains
  • Headache and TMJ pain
  • Asthma and hay fever
  • Nausea, vomiting and ulcers
  • Postoperative pain
  • Effects of radiation and chemotherapy


Acupuncture treatments received in Northern Kentucky will help to oxygenate tissues and increase blood flow to the specific areas treated. Acupuncture also helps to produce your body’s own anti-inflammatory substances like cortisone and increases the production of endorphins, which help to control pain. Extensive research indicates that acupuncture also stimulates the nerves responsible for body and brain chemistry.


You deserve to live a healthy, full life, free of pain. That’s why you owe it to yourself to include an ancient, proven method of treatment, acupuncture! The ancient secrets of acupuncture have been proven by modern medicine and science. Don’t wait when it comes to the health of your body. Help from acupuncture treatment is just a phone call away. It’s time to call Pure Health in Union, Kentucky. Call today and find out how acupuncture can help you!
