Acupuncture is one of the oldest, most commonly used forms of medicine in the world. Originating in China more than 3,000 years ago, acupuncture is currently one of the most thoroughly researched, practiced, and respected forms of complementary medicine available anywhere. It has been used since ancient times for people and animals.

According to Traditional Chinese Medicine, the overall health of the body is determined by the quality of the Qi (energy) flow through the natural pathways the body also known as the meridians.

Acupuncture uses a variety of techniques, including placing very thin sterile needles into specific points on the body, to stimulate and improve the body's Qi flow.

The many benefits of acupuncture include:

  • Pain reduction
  • Stress and tension relief
  • Increased energy levels
  • Stronger digestion
  • Immune system boost
  • Relief for women's gynecological issues
  • Reduced symptoms due to asthma or allergies
  • Improves circulation
  • Greater sense of overall health and well-being

☯️Helpful Tips🌿 For A Calming First Acupuncture Session☯️For People!

 

auricular acupuncture & ear seeds

 

All acupuncture sessions include the application of ear seeds on acupressure points located on the ears to help balance the mind and body, reduce stress and calm the mind.

 

 

 

 

 

herbs & homeopathic medicine

 

Chinese herbal medicine is a 2,000 year old tradition using naturally occurring substances — including herbs — to enhance one's health and vitality. As opposed to Western medicine, the foundation of this approach is to support the body's natural self-healing mechanisms and abilities.

I am a licensed herbalist with significant training in herbal medicine with over 30 years experience. Since each patient has different needs, I carefully select herbal formulas, liniments or homeopathic remedies that are specific to your needs.

 

laser acupuncture

Laser Acupuncture is the latest innovation in the 2,500 year old medical tradition of acupuncture. It uses low-energy laser beams — instead of traditional acupuncture needles — on specific points of your body to unblock and restore the healthy flow of Qi (energy) through the body's meridians. This treatment is completely painless, and just as effective as a traditional acupuncture session.

I combine laser acupuncture with acupuncture in sessions when needed.. During the session a laser will be used on points on the body that are specific for reducing pain, promoting circulation and boosting the immune system. There is no pain and is a perfect solution for those scared of needles.

The many benefits of laser acupuncture include:

  • Relieves pain!
  • Moves energy
  • Stimulates the acu-points
  • Moves energy through the meridians
  • Improves circulation
  • Stress and tension relief
  • Increased energy levels
  • Aids digestion
  • Greater sense of overall health and well-being

 

acupressure

 

Acupressure is based on one the most ancient principles of healing — that simply touching a specific point on the body will release stress and improve health in the body. In an acupressure session, I apply firm pressure directly to these "points" on your body which  muscle tension and improves circulation. This simple and powerful technique has been shown to very effective in treating pain, headaches, backaches, and even insomnia.

 

 

moxibustion

Moxibustion is a Traditional Chinese Medicine technique that involves the burning of mugwort, a small, spongy herb, to facilitate healing and health. Moxibustion has been used for healing purposes throughout Asia for thousands of years. The purpose of moxibustion, as with most forms of Traditional Chinese Medicine, is to strengthen the blood, stimulate the flow of Qi (energy); and enhance your overall vitality and health.

Among other benefits, a landmark study published in the Journal of the American Medical Association in 1998 found that 75.4% of women suffering from breech presentations before childbirth had fetuses that rotated to the normal position after receiving moxibustion at an acupuncture point on the bladder meridian.

reiki   

Reiki is a Japanese form of energy work that cleanses and balances the energy system in the body. As a result, the body's natural self-healing mechanisms strengthen, helping to establish optimum health. During a session, I work directly with your energy field to remove blockages, detoxify your system, and restore your vital life force energy. Reiki utilizes a gentle laying on of hands to conduct the necessary energy force between us. The benefits of Reiki range from the release of habitual mental/emotional stress to alleviating chronic pain.

I combine Reiki into all of my acupuncture sessions. There is no extra charge for this.

Tuning Forks are a part of Sound Healing Therapy. I often combine Tuning Forks with acupuncture in many sessions.

  • Reduces Inflammation
  • Aligns the Body & Mind
  • Calms the Nervous System
