Acupuncture

Your acupuncturist will create a specific plan and future treatment strategy for you based on your medical history. Acupuncture involves the placing of small filiform, single-use, sterile needles in specific points on the body. The needles are then activated through gentle and specific movements of the practitioner’s hand or with electrical stimulation. Acupuncture is used to decrease pain and increase the body’s ability to return to a state of homeostasis and healing.

Laser Acupuncture

Laser acupuncture (LA) is the stimulation of traditional acupuncture points with low intensity, non-thermal laser irradiation. LA is a safe, pain-free, non-invasive alternative to traditional acupuncture. This is not the same type of laser used in laser surgery to burn or cut. Laser acupuncture is considered “cold laser therapy, since it doesn’t produce heat. Laser therapy can help regenerate cells, decrease pain, reduce inflammation and improve circulation.

Auriculotherapy

Auriculotherapy (AT), is a diagnostic and treatment system based on normalizing the body’s dysfunction through stimulation of points on the ear. The ear is a micro system of the entire body, therefore the whole body can be treated through the ear. Your acupuncturist may choose to combine AT with your regular acupuncture treatment or she may decide to treat only with auriculotherapy. AT is very effective for pain management, addiction issues, sleep disorders and many other conditions. Your acupuncturist may choose to send you home with either ear seeds or tacks to further your treatment.

Nano Needling for Facial rejuvenation

Nano-needling Therapy is an infusion treatment that sends a serum, customized for your skincare concerns, directly into the upper layer of the epidermis. Delivering serum into the skin this way helps to increase the effectiveness and absorption of the product. Nano-needling Therapy is maximized when combined with the LED treatment. This treatment helps to boost the production of collagen and elastin. It also lifts, sculpts, and tightens the skin to reduce the appearance of fine lines and wrinkles. Nano needling is a minimally invasive treatment.

Gua Sha

Gua sha is a Chinese Medicine practice where your acupuncturist uses a smooth edged stone or metal tool to scrap the skin in order to affect the underlying tissues where there is stagnation or inflammation to help improve circulation and improve healing. Gua sha will leave tiny red spots (petechiae) which look like a rash. The spots will resolve in a matter of days. Gua sha is extremely effective at relaxing tense muscles and fascia and reducing scar tissue.

Medical Qigong is a form of healing energy therapy that incorporates the diagnostic and energetic balancing principles of CM with energy sensing and intuitive healing abilities of the Medical Qigong therapist to boost the body’s immune function, reduce stress levels and allow healing to occur in a totally non-invasive manner. Your acupuncturist may use sound therapy through voice or tuning forks to facilitate the session.

Moxibustion involves burning moxa, a cone or stick made of ground mugwort leaves on the acupuncture needles or near your body’s acupuncture channels and points.

Moxibustion is a very safe and therapeutically effective branch of Chinese Medicine.
