Acupuncture

Acupuncture is a technique in which specific acupuncture points on the body are stimulated by inserting a thin needle through the skin. It is  used for treatment of various symptoms and diseases and dates back over 3000 years.  There have been extensive studies conducted on acupuncture; however, researchers are only beginning to understand the effects of acupuncture and how it works from a biomedical perspective.  Acupuncture is considered a  safe therapy when performed by an experienced, well-trained practitioner using sterile single use needles.  Ask me about your specific condition and see if acupuncture is right for you!

Herbal Medicine

Herbal Medicine can treat a wide range of symptoms and disease processes.  Chinese Herbal Medicine is one of the great herbal systems of the world with an unbroken tradition going back to the 3rd century BC. Throughout its history it has continually developed in response to changing clinical conditions. I recommend, prescribe, and use only high quality, 3rd party tested, practitioner grade, ethically sourced herbal products.

Moxibustion

Moxibustion is a traditional Chinese Medicine technique that involves the burning of the herb, Artemisia vulgaris, to facilitate healing. It can b e applied indirectly, directly on the skin, or on top of an acupuncture needle.  It has a warming, moving, and nourishing effect.  Moxa stimulates the immune system, decreases pain, promotes circulation, and reduces inflammation.

Bodywork

Tuina and Shiatsu are bodywork (Eastern Medical Massage) techniques (pushing, pulling, pressing, and percussion) used to facilitate the movement of stagnations in the body to promote healing.

Cupping

Cupping is a technique that uses small glass cups as suction devices that are placed on the skin to disperse and break up stagnation and congestion.

“Where there’s stagnation, there will be pain. Remove the stagnation, and you remove the pain.”

Yoga

Ashtanga (8 Limbs) Yoga combines Breath, Asana (posture), and Dristi (gazing or looking place) to  create a moving meditation.  The breath is essential to the practice and individual needs are taken into consideration.  Anyone can practice! When practiced consistently, with correct method; physical, mental, and spiritual transformation can occur.
