Today, Dr. Emma Lockwood is joined by acupuncturist Monica Mae Leibson.

Monica tells us how a childhood illness set her on the path toward herbal medicine, and how she found her passion.

Next, she explains acupuncture itself - as it relates to the Chinese concepts of Chi and balance - and what the process is like.  Even people who are afraid of traditional needles quickly learn that this process is much different.  In fact, Monica tells a funny story about treating doctors and nurses, and how they reacted to acupuncture.

We explore the 5 elements of Chinese medicine - wood, fire, water, earth, and metal.   So much of the body is connected, hence why chiropractic and acupuncture often complement each other quite well.

Finally, Monica walks us through what your first appointment with her looks like, and what to expect.
