Sana Acupuncture & Wellness Center, Garwood

When it comes to healing the body, Maria Betancourth eschews traditional methods that encourage the use of pharmaceuticals in favor of ancient treatments. A licensed acupuncturist, she applies the hair-thin needles and vacuum-sealed cups to particular areas of the body, aiming to treat everything from headaches to fibromyalgia. In doing so, it's thought that "vital energy" or qi is enhanced and balanced, which promotes the body's natural healing.
