Daniel D. Nemer, LOM

Acupuncturist

Daniel offers his patients acupuncture treatments for a variety of conditions. Acupuncture may be used for:

  • Pain relief: Acupuncture can help reduce or eliminate chronic back pain, neck and joint pain, headaches and migraines, even arthritis.
  • Stress reduction: Stress is the root of many health problems. Occasional short bursts of this response are not a problem, but when stress becomes a long-term way of life, this set of biological responses can cause serious health problems.
  • Detoxification: Acupuncture helps restore harmony and balance in the channels of your body by eliminating pollutants and rebuilding vital energy. Detox may be useful for anyone since we are all exposed to toxins on a regular basis.
  • Smoking cessation/weight management: Cutting out unhealthy behaviors and maintaining a healthy weight are the best things you can do for your health right now. Kick the habit or lose unwanted weight with a safe, natural and effective series of acupuncture treatments, which are designed to help you stop smoking or reduce unhealthy food cravings without stress or anxiety. Smoking cessation and weight management treatment packages of five or 10 sessions are available.
  • Balancing: Balance is a dynamic state, one that is ever-changing as we age, and adapting to influences from all sides in order to maintain equilibrium. Balancing acupuncture improves your adaptability to stress and restores your vitality.
  • Chronic health issues: Scientific studies have proven acupuncture’s effectiveness for many common debilitating health issues including allergic rhinitis, chronic low back pain, headaches (tension type and chronic), migraine prevention, osteoarthritis of the knee and post-operative pain.

Other conditions where acupuncture has shown positive effects include:

Coming soon: Facial rejuvenation and cosmetic acupuncture

We are dedicated to helping you achieve your highest potential for wellness regardless of your current state of health. We believe that:

  • Optimal health is a state of balance and harmony in mind, body, and spirit, and reaching and maintaining this balance is a lifelong process
  • Knowledge is the key to responsible health care decision making and patients should be actively involved in their healing process
  • Respect, compassion, and inspiration should guide the practitioner
