Acupuncture

Acupuncture is a traditional Chinese medical practice that involves inserting thin needles into specific points on the body. Acupuncture activates the parasympathetic system (“rest and digest” state) so that deep healing can occur.

Body Cupping

Body cupping is a traditional therapy that uses silicone or glass cups to create a vacuum effect on the skin. This suction draws the skin and underlying tissues into the cup, which promotes circulation, e relieves muscle tension, and encourages healing. The treatment is typically relaxing and is sometimes followed by circular marks on the skin, which fade within a few days.

Gua Sha

Gua sha involves scraping the skin with a smooth-edged tool, often made of jade. This can create light bruising/redness called "sha," which is believed to help release stagnant energy and promote circulation to alleviate muscle tension. The treatment may leave temporary marks on the skin that fade within a few days.

Ear Seeds

Ear seeds are tiny, natural seeds (often from the Vaccaria plant) applied to specific points on the outer ear. This technique stimulates the ear to help balance the body's energy and promote healing. Ear seeds are typically held in place with adhesive tape and can treat stress, pain, digestive issues, and anxiety. They can be worn for 5-7 days and provide a gentle, continuous stimulation to help support your overall wellness.

Herbal Medicine

Herbal Medicine can benefit a variety of pain conditions, anxiety and depression, skin conditions, digestive ailments, women's health/menopausal issues and more. Herbal formulations are customized to the individual patient’s condition upon taking a pulse and tongue diagnosis and can be taken as capsules, tinctures, or powders.

Cosmetic Acupuncture

Cosmetic acupuncture is a non-surgical and non-invasive approach to skincare, providing a natural alternative to more invasive cosmetic procedures. It reduces fine lines and wrinkles, stimulates collagen production, and tightens the muscles of the face. It is often used in combination with other skincare techniques and herbal treatments for optimal results.
