History
The story behind Body Affects... It took me a long time to give my business a name. I wanted it to be reflective of the type of practice I currently had, as well as being able to grow and change as my practice has done. Body was a given as I work with the body. The body is a powerful force that influences all parts of itself, the mind, the emotions, and the world around it. I wanted to find a word to encompass the power of the body. An effect is that which is produced when you affect something. The body AFFECTS everything. The definition of Affect (most often a verb): have an impact on, to produce an effect on or change in, to impress the mind or move the feelings of, to make a difference to, to transform or to change (You do it). The definition of Effect (most often a noun): outcome, consequence, or appearance, a result of influence, to bring something about as a result (You cause it to be). Affect is the word that I found to describe the power and influence of the body.
Specialties
At Body Affects we aim to work with our patients/clients to design a personal wellness solution. We now offer acupuncture. You will meet with the therapist who will review your present complaint and your past medical history to better understand your individual situation. We then work with you to create a customized treatment and plan appropriate progressions and goals. We give you total control of your treatment. Often people have been to see several medical professionals before they find us, and have failed to meet their goals. Here we work with you to educate you about your situation, set realistic goals, and answer any questions you may have. Questions are always welcome! In our experience it is important to be proactive when it comes to your health. We give you as many treatments as necessary, give you the tools to prevent further discomfort/pain and the ability to maintain the relief you get from your treatment, and we're also here for maintenence treatments.
