What We Do

Acupuncture is a gentle and effective method to help manage your health. We specialize in Japanese acupuncture which is well known for being virtually painless. We use very thin needles about the size of a human hair. Sometimes you will experience a Qi sensation after the needle has been inserted. This sensation can range from a tingle to a dull pressure and often fades quickly.

This 20–30 minute therapy is calming. Many people fall asleep during treatment and report feeling refreshed afterward.

Acupuncturists use cupping extensively to release tight muscles and resolve stagnation of blood and energy (Qi) due to a number of causes, including physical injury and various ailments. The therapy can also be used to:

• Eliminate toxins
• Treat respiratory ailments such as asthma and bronchitis
• Alleviate arthritic symptoms
• Ease lower back pain
• Resolve depression and lessen gastrointestinal problems

Low level laser, cold laser or light therapy, is a treatment which uses different types of light to stimulate the tissues and cells of the body.  With a low level laser, we are able to stimulate an increase in cellular energy, promoting healthier cell growth.  Many have seen great results after treatment:

• Enhancement to mitochondrial activity and the production of ATP (cellular energy 
• Regulation of inflammation
• Increased blood flow
•  Increased synthesis of protein, collagen, DNA
• Reduction of oxidative damage to the cells

Massage therapy has been an integral part of traditional Chinese medicine for  thousands of years. This type of massage involves a variety of techniques such as gentle pushing, pulling, kneading and twisting to facilitate the flow of energy throughout the body to promote overall health and wellbeing. 

Chinese herbal supplements are a safe and proven method to stimulate the body’s own restorative processes. These Asian formulas are primarily plant-based, and treat a variety of ailments. We prescribe standard, certified safe herbal capsules or liquid tinctures based on your individual diagnosis and needs.
