Acupuncture is a technique of Traditional Chinese Medicine (“TCM”) that involves inserting thin needles into specific points on the body. These points align with the body’s energetic system as it has been studied and understood over thousands of years. Acupuncture aims to balance the flow of energy, or "Qi," to promote healing, alleviate pain and treat a variety of health conditions, including physical, emotional and psychological issues.

Besides acupuncture, we also use other TCM modalities in order to achieve effective health results.

Fire cupping is a traditional therapy where heated cups are placed on the skin to create suction. Cupping improves circulation, relieves pain, and promotes healing. It is used to treat muscle tension, inflammation, and respiratory issues, among other things.

Ear seeds are small seeds or beads applied to specific points on the ear, often using adhesive. This practice is rooted in auriculotherapy, a form of acupuncture that targets the ear to address health issues. Ear seeds are used to alleviate pain, reduce stress, and support overall wellness.

Gua Sha is a traditional healing technique where a smooth, flat tool is scraped across the skin to promote circulation and release tension. It is typically applied to areas of muscle pain or stiffness. Gua Sha enhances healing, reduces inflammation, and improves overall wellness.

Herbal formulas are blends of various plant-based ingredients used in traditional medicine to promote health and treat ailments. They are tailored to address specific conditions, such as digestive and gynecology issues, inflammation, insomnia and immune support. (Herbal formulas are often used in practices like Traditional Chinese Medicine and Ayurvedic medicine).

Electroacupuncture is a modern variation of acupuncture that involves applying a small electric current to the needles. This technique stimulates the acupuncture points more intensively. It is used to treat pain, muscle tension, and various neurological conditions.
