 Your body is wise.

Our holistic methods look at the person and the pain, and we treat the big picture.

It shows up differently in different people. The goal is always pain relief, but getting to the bottom of what is causing the pain is part of the long-term strategy to alleviate the source of pain. Our bodies want to be efficient. It actually takes a lot more work to live in a pattern of pain than it does to live in health. Our techniques remind the body that healing is a more efficient method of operating and that living without pain takes less energy. 

Just as we are all individuals,

back pain is a unique type of pain.

We work with you to find the best combination for your unique condition. Here’s how our combination of four powerful, time-tested, all-natural therapies works to heal your body and remind it how to live in health.

Herbal supplements simultaneously cure and strengthen the body.

Gentle Acupuncture

Our specialty is gentle acupuncture. Acupuncture has been healing bodies for centuries by awakening and stimulating your own body’s innate healing process.

Herbal Supplements

When your body is in a state of relaxation, it can repair at the deepest level. This means less inflammation, better circulation, balanced hormones, a calmer mind, more energy, and better mood.

Functional Nutrition

 We provide specialized, simple, and doable dietary recommendations for all of our patients.

Relaxation & Stress Reduction

Your initial consultation is free

Come meet us in person to learn more!

  • At your free initial 15-min phone consultation, you’ll meet with your practitioner to discuss your medical history, medications you are currently taking, and most importantly, your goals. We want to be certain that Golden Hour’s program is a good fit for your needs and that there is a high probability of success for you before we move forward to the next step.

  • After your free consultation with your practitioner, and we agree that this program is a good fit for you, the next step forward is the Intake Appointment. At this visit, your practitioner will perform a thorough assessment of your particular issue, medical history, and other factors to identify the root cause of your problem to devise the right treatment approach for you, based upon the goals you have discussed. 

    After this assessment, you will receive your first acupuncture treatment, and you will be given a treatment plan with simple, easy-to-follow instructions. Your treatment plan includes dietary and lifestyle adjustments as well as herbal supplements to address the root of your issue. 

  • You’ll return for weekly visits to ensure close support as you begin to feel your body establishing a new pattern. We want to make sure your treatment plan is providing you with:

    • Balanced hormones

    • Improved digestion

    • Decreased inflammation

    • More “good days” — energy, mood, stamina

    You’ll also receive acupuncture at each visit to ensure that your nervous system is rebalancing to return to its original pattern of health. 

  • Once we see improvements that are maintaining over time, we will start spacing visits out further apart. This usually occurs after 8 to 12 visits, with some individual variability. We will go from weekly visits to visits every 10 to 14 days, then once a month, then on an as-needed basis for “tuneups.” We are here for you, in case you have other healthcare issues you want to address. Of course, many of our patients wish to continue with regular maintenance, and we are always happy to work with you on that level, if that is your wish.
