    Ask the average person what acupuncture is and you will probably get a myriad of answers. One thing that it is not is painful. Yes, acupuncture is the insertion of small needles into vital locations along artery and vein pathways. To the contrary, properly performed by a trained acupuncture therapist, the experience is quite tranquil. The tranquility sets in once the needles have changed your body's chemistry. But, the insertion of the needles are sensationful, not painful. One should expect a warm, spreading, heavy, and distended sensation around the needles. These sensations are manifestations of the chemical and neurological shift made by the body, necessary for healing."Acupuncture releases the body's natural pain killers (i.e. enkephalins), helps to relax shortened muscles, reduces the perception and intensity of pain."
    Acupuncture hones in on very fine blood vessels that stimulate blood flow throughout the body’s neurovascular nodes that contain high levels of very fine blood vessels, mast cells, fine lymphatic vessels, and sensory nerve fibers. Every part of the body needs these structures. Acupuncture promotes blood flow through these regions, in order for them to live and thrive.
    Greg McCue, owner of Rising Tide Acupuncture in Huntington is a New York State Licensed Acupuncturist with a Master’s in Science of Traditional Oriental Medicine (Acupuncture and Herbology) from Pacific College of Oriental Medicine-N.Y. As I am told by Mr. McCue, “acupuncture promotes blood flow, restores the body’s homeostasis and creates an avenue for the body to heal itself. Our goal is to provide patient-centered health care, in an environment where health, wellness and longevity are achieved” 
    Every treatment at Rising Tide Acupuncture is tailored specifically to each patient. This is achieved through individualized acupuncture treatments, herbal formulas, Chinese massage and meditative techniques and Chinese physical training exercises. Mr. McCue continues, “Every person is unique and different, and therefore every treatment should be targeted uniquely and
differently.” Rising Tide prides itself on this specificity of treatment, time efficient results, and unwavering service to the patient! You can learn more about the varied techniques offered by visiting their website at risingtideacupuncture.net.
