Acupuncture with Kristen Sparrow, M.D.; San Francisco Acupuncturist

Dr. Sparrow combines ancient Chinese healing with the latest scientific research to provide relief of pain, mood imbalances, immune disorders and stress.

Acupuncture seeks to balance the body and mind through gentle activation of the energy channels in the body. Recent science shows that by stimulating the body with needles you activate the bodys own healing mechanisms and calm the nervous system. This leads to relief of pain, improved mood and better immunity.
