Welcome to Young Pine Acupuncture

Located in Portland, Oregon, we provide quality acupuncture, Chinese herbs and massage. Sarah Frances Butler L.Ac. at Young Pine Acupuncture LLC is on a mission to improve your health and energy! A common natural therapy for treating joint and back pain, did you know that Oriental Medicine is also helpful for heartburn, menopause, insomnia, anxiety and the common cold? Because this medicine has been practiced for thousands of years in China, there is an amazing amount of accumulated clinical wisdom on just about every disorder that humans are susceptible to.

Though often regarded as an “alternative” medicine or last hope when western medicine has failed, Oriental medicine may be helpful for preventing many diseases before major symptoms even appear. For example, for a patient who is tired all the time and wants to lose weight, Frances Butler and the patient will work together to address the diet and lifestyle factors and energy imbalances that could lead to diabetes and high blood pressure if ignored.

An exciting benefit of the Oriental Medicine approach is that often symptoms that seem to have nothing to do with each other are connected, so by working on the underlying cause, a patient notices improvement in multiple aspects of their life. For example, a skin rash may be related to a problem with digestion that is also causing fatigue and irritability. By treating holistically, the body, mind and emotions are all cared for.
