Acupuncture is part of the ancient practice of Traditional Chinese medicine (TCM). TCM practitioners use the human body's more than 2,000 acupoints, connected by energy pathways (Meridians), to stimulate or improve the flow of energy (Qi) throughout the body. This system of energy throughout the body is responsible for overall health and wellbeing. Disruption, blockage, or decreased energy flow can cause dis-ease in the body. By stimulating these points through the use of tiny needles, flow of Qi can be improved, thereby improving your health.

​

Cupping
The suction and negative pressure created by cupping helps loosen muscles,
encourages blood flow, relaxes the nervous system, reduces cellulite, improves flow of
energy, and is also an excellent way to decrease high blood pressure. Cupping is an
ancient modality revered in many eastern cultures and is a wonderful, unique
experience. 

​

Gua Sha
Gua Sha is a Chinese medicine therapy that involves gentle but consistent pressure to
“scrape” the skin, by use of a stone tool, which increases blood flow. The benefits of
Gua Sha include reduction of inflammation, treatment of chronic pain, and reduction of
joint pain.

​

E-STIM
We apply a very light electrical stimulation to the needles, like a TENs machine. This is
a great additional therapy for muscle aches, tightness, and pain. It feels like a very
gentle tapping. We will recommend it if we think it will benefit you or ask us if you want
to try it.

Tui Na
Tui na is a hands-on body treatment. The practitioner may brush, knead, roll, press, and
rub the areas between each of the joints and get the energy moving in the meridians
and the muscles. Techniques may be gentle or quite firm.
