About Acupuncture
Originating in China about 5,000 years ago, acupuncture is the oldest continuously practiced medical system in the world. Outside of China, in other parts of Asia, Europe, and South America acupuncture has been used for about 200 years. In the U. S. acupuncture has been available since 1972 when an aide of President Nixon was successfully treated in China. All told, acupuncture is used by nearly one-third of the world as a primary health care system and many more as an adjunctive therapy. The fundamental principles of acupuncture are to treat the person as an integrated whole in body, mind, and spirit, and to remedy the root cause of illness and disease, not only the symptoms.

Testimonials
Acupuncture In Towson is a lovely experience. Shahrzad made me feel heard and my main issues resolved. Initially I went for a sciatic nerve injury and then issues with digestion. I was in a car accident and the haze and tension I felt was removed. Wonderful atmosphere, lovely aromatherapy and very relaxing embodiment supported great healing. Shahrzad was so good that my husband got help as well. I am stronger and appreciate the time and attention.

Shahrzad has helped me so much in so many ways. As someone who suffers from multiple chronic illnesses and arising chronic migraines, fibromyalgia pain, GI problems, etc. she has helped me so much more than any of my doctors or specialists have. I have found that addressing things in a more holistic manner is way more beneficial than taking medication alone. Shahrzad has given many recommendations in terms of lifestyle changes, supplements, diet, etc. If I show up to a session with something like heartburn or menstrual cramps, etc. she addresses them in our sessions. I would recommend her to anyone and everyone!

I started acupuncture a couple of months ago because of knee pain, ankle pain and some back and neck pain. Within those months the pain has gone away and my energy has changed. Shahrzad is very knowledgeable and patient. She ensures that you are comfortable outside and spiritually at peace with the process of acupuncture, ensuring you get positive results from your procedures.

Shahrzad is wonderful. She really treats the whole person, mental and physical, inside and out. Her treatments are spot on. I once had a bad headache and she was able to numb my entire forehead for days! She is a great listener and she is very knowledgeable on a wide array of topics including allergies, women’s issues, pain, fatigue, sleep, stomach problems, and I’m sure many more. I can’t recommend her enough.
