Acupuncture has been shown to be an effective therapy for everything from chronic pain and irritable bowel syndrome to infertility and anxiety. In fact, according to the National Institute of Health, it's been studied for at least 50 health problems. It is part of Traditional Chinese Medicine (TCM) and is growing in popularity as Americans search for alternative treatments to complement Western medicine.

But how does it work? Who can benefit from it? And what is the science behind it?

Join us for this "pointed" episode as we learn the ins and outs of acupuncture from our guest, certified practitioner Cheryl Weatherby. Her knowledge, expertise, and commitment to treating the whole patient and the whole family might be just what you were looking for - even if you didn't know it.
