Cupping is a therapeutic practice that involves creating suction on the skin using a glass or plastic cup. Cupping can be applied stationary on dry skin or as sliding cups with an emollient that allows the cups to glide along the skin. We love to use cupping for pain and recovery of energy.
Cupping leaves temporary marks on the skin that can look like bruising. In cases of wet cupping, where lancets are used to puncture the skin along with cupping, the marks may be darker. The marks themselves typically do not hurt and will resolve within days of treatment.

Gua sha is a therapeutic technique in which the surface of the skin is stroked using a round-edged tool. This is typically performed along the neck and back, but can also be used on the arms, legs, and even the face
As the gua sha tool moves over the body, small capillaries may break and create bruise-like markings. These markings will diminish in the days following treatment. In Chinese medicine, we refer to those markings as "sha" or sand, as it resembles grains of sand coming to the surface of the skin.

Electro-acupuncture uses two needles in each meridian point, or acupuncture point, and then connects to a machine that passes a small electric current through the needle.
When you get electro-acupuncture, it activates your sympathetic nerve fibers. By activating these fibers, your body releases endogenous opioids such as endorphins, which help to reduce inflammation. The activated nerve fibers may also help to reduce feelings of persistent pain. This makes it a good treatment for chronic pain and stress.

Integration Therapy is a gentle hands-on therapy which brings together the skills of Craniosacral Therapy, Zero Balancing and Chi Nei Tsang. These modalities all offer different ways to relax the physical structure to effect energy and function.
Therapeutic touch is placed at acu-points, joints, bones muscles and meridians. Qi is assessed at abdominal centers and tight diaphragms are relaxed so energy moves more freely softening tension in your organs, nerves, muscles, blood vessels, brain and spinal cord.

Our topical and internal herbals are very high quality formulas which are recommended when the practitioner feels that it suits the treatment principle and/or needs of the patient.
Our topical liniments, lotions and oils contain real herbal formulas that penetrate deep into the muscles and meridians rather than simple nerve blocks. Our internal formulas are natural, super potent foods with a rich history of healing. We have used these products for many years because they continually have proven to be safe, effective and have little to no side effects.

Acupuncture and Traditional Chinese Medicine come from a larger Daoist healing system which includes spirituality, herbal wisdom, physical medicine, astrology, exercise, meditation, feng shui and much more.
As specialists in some key areas, we find it important to offer this ancient healing wisdom. It can be powerful to integrate these concepts, exercises and principles into our lifestyle to continue the treatment after you leave our office.

Acupuncture is the insertion of very thin, sterile needles at specific points on the body to therapeutically balance the patient's body, mind & feeling. For thousands of years it has proven to be a safe, reliable, drug free way to spark the bodies' natural healing response.
Acupuncture needles are sterile, single-use, stainless steel and are about the thickness of a shaft of human hair. When when placed into the a salty, bio-electric medium like the body, natural currents of electricity are created, amplifying energy and dispersing stasis.
When done correctly by a professional acupuncturist, most people find it does not hurt. Depending on your energy and the point being treated, you may or may not feel the insertion of the needle. In general, our patients are surprised how comfortable and deeply restorative each treatment is.
Needles are most commonly inserted into the arms, legs, back and often at the site of pain or focus. Depending on a person’s condition, acupuncture points are typically retained for about 20-30 minutes. After they are placed, we dim the lights, leave the room and let you relax into health on our far infrared heated therapy tables.
Acupuncture treats the body and not the disease, and as such is an effective healing tool for everything from the common cold to pain management to addiction. The World Health Organization has published an official report on the effectiveness of acupuncture based on evidence from clinical trials. This list includes conditions such as fibromyalgia, allergic rhinitis, headache, dysentery, blood pressure regulation, stroke, adverse affects in the treatment of oncology, and various types of pain. The Centers for Disease Control and Prevention lists acupuncture as an effective treatment tool for chronic diseases and pain in lieu of pharmaceutical interventions. Since acupuncture stimulates and guides the body’s innate healing response, it can be used for just about any thing the body experiences.
In this official report, Acupuncture: Review and Analysis of Reports on Controlled Clinical Trials, the World Health Organization (WHO) has listed the following symptoms, diseases and conditions that have been shown through controlled trials to be treated effectively by acupuncture. Here is a short list of conditions.
Your body will continue to unwind, re-calibrate, and integrate, so the time post treatment is ideally one of rest and nourishment. Nourish yourself by:
