The ancient Taoists were masters of longevity. All of their meditation and movement practices, all of their herbal and medical knowledge, all of their philosophy and lifestyle were designed to achieve maximum longevity. To get the full benefit of such wisdom takes more than just a few acupuncture treatments. Diet, exercise, meditation, as well as self care modalities like acupressure and basic herbal knowledge all play a part. Paul Magee’s Lifestyle Consultations are designed to put you on the correct path, and give you the knowledge and skills necessary to achieve balance and longevity in your own life.

Each consultation lasts between three and four hours, and includes an extensive health history, an acupuncture and herbal consultation, as well as recommendations for exercise and meditation. Patients will leave with a clear action plan and a list of resources necessary for their continued health, vitality, and longevity.

When should I get acupuncture?

Probably the most common question I get as an acupuncturist is "When should I get Acupuncture?" Since Acupuncture is brand new to most Americans, I think this is an extremely reasonable question. The answer comes in three parts.

1) When you have a chronic health problem. Both the National Institute of Health and the World Health Organization recognize that Acupuncture is an effective treatment for certain conditions. The most common conditions that Acupuncturists treat fall into four main categories

Pain, from headaches to fibromyalgia to TMJ, Acupuncture can treat any sort of pain.

Nausea & other gastrointestinal problems, like IBS.

Emotional issues like depression and anxiety.

Women's health conditions like painful periods, fertility issues and menopause.

2) When you're feeling sick. It amazes me when patients call up to cancel their appointments because they're "catching a cold". If you're well enough to get to my treatment room, you should certainly come in. Acupuncture & herbs can drastically reduce the amount of time that a cold or other sickness will lay you low.

3) When you want to live a long & healthy life. Acupuncture and Chinese Medicine are very good at detecting minor imbalances early on, and I can provide regular "tune up" treatments to help you keep your mind, body and spirit healthy. The frequency of these treatments will vary on your age and overall health, but are usually recommended once every 1- 3 months.

This is a very general overview, and I would encourage you to either e-mail or phone me with any specific questions or concerns you may have.
