What we offer
Acupuncture
Acupuncture is an ancient practice that is part of Traditional Chinese Medicine (TCM) which aims to restore and maintain health by stimulating specific points on the body using hair-thin disposable needles.
The goal is to restore the balance and smooth flow of Qi or Chi-energy within the body, leading to homeostasis and relaxation for healing and repair.
Research has shown that acupuncture has physiological effects, including increasing endorphins for pain relief and mood enhancement, increasing white blood cell counts for immune system support, boosting serotonin for mental health and pain management, and improving circulation for tissue nourishment and repair.

Acupuncture Add-Ons
Electro-Acupuncture
Electro-acupuncture is a type of acupuncture that uses a small electric current passed through needles to increase their stimulation and improve treatment, especially for pain. Research has shown that this method increases the release of natural pain-relieving neurotransmitters, such as endorphins and enkephalins.
Facial Rejuvenation
Facial Rejuvenation Acupuncture is a treatment that can make the face look younger by 5 to 15 years in just a few sessions. It can eliminate fine lines and reduce deeper wrinkles, bags under the eyes, puffiness, droopy eyelids, and double chins, while firming jowls. It can also moisturize the skin by increasing local circulation of blood and lymph, boost collagen production and muscle tone, tighten pores, and brighten the eyes. It can even improve hormonal balance to help with acne and reduce stress on the face, bringing out an individual's natural beauty and radiance.
Cupping
Cupping uses glass cups to create suction on the skin, promoting healthy blood flow to muscles and organs. Aromatic oils or herbal linaments may be used to enhance the treatment. Cupping can also treat upper respiratory issues and activate the immune system. Temporary soreness and bruising may occur, but most people find the treatment relaxing and therapeutic. Drinking plenty of water and detoxifying activities can aid the body in eliminating toxins after treatment.
Prenatal & Postnatal
Acupuncture is helpful throughout all stages of pregnancy. Before conceiving, it can balance hormones, regulate cycles and improve blood circulation. During fertility treatments, acupuncture can reduce side effects, improve outcomes and support emotional wellbeing. During pregnancy, acupuncture can ease symptoms such as morning sickness, back pain, headaches, and constipation, and help turn breech babies. After birth, acupuncture can help mothers recover physically and emotionally, and increase milk supply. Research shows that acupuncture during pregnancy and after birth can also reduce postpartum depression and anxiety.
Moxibustion
Moxa, short for moxibustion, is a traditional Chinese therapy that involves burning dried mugwort on or near the skin to stimulate blood flow and promote healing. The technique is often used to relieve pain, reduce inflammation, and boost the immune system.
Chinese Herbal Medicine
Chinese herbal medicine involves taking a combination of natural herbs in a formula daily to improve health and treat medical conditions at their root cause. It is a gentle, safe, and natural approach. The herbs I use are pharmaceutical grade and come from reputable sources that go through rigorous testing to ensure patient safety. Herbal formulas can be customized and taken in powder, raw (boiled into a tea), encapsulated, or tablet form to treat a patient's specific patterns and symptoms. They are generally gentle with few side effects, making them a desirable alternative to Western pharmaceuticals in appropriate cases.
Gua Sha
Gua Sha is a technique used to treat pain associated with acute or chronic disorders. It involves scraping or rubbing the skin with a tool until a reddish skin rash called petechiae is raised. This technique is used to resolve musculo skeletal pain and also prevent or treat common cold, flu, bronchitis, asthma, and chronic disorders related to pain and congestion of Qi and Blood.
Acupressure
Acupressure is an alternative medicine technique that comes from acupuncture. Instead of using needles, physical pressure is applied to acupuncture points by hand, elbow, or devices. According to Traditional Chinese medical theory, there are special acupoints along energy channels called meridians that carry vital energy or qi throughout the body. When one of these meridians is blocked or out of balance, it can cause illness. Acupressure and acupuncture are used to help restore balance, along with other treatments like herbal therapy, nutrition, meditation, and therapeutic massage.
