What I Offer

Acupuncture

Cupping
An adjunct modality in Chinese Medicine that helps to promote the flow of blood and qi (energy) throughout the body. Used to help with inflammation, pain, relaxation and range of motion.

Tui Na

Gua Sha
Gua Sha is a modality of Chinese Medicine that is similar to Instrument Assisted Soft Tissue Manipulation (IASTM). Used to help with blood and qi (energy) flow to alleviate pain and promote healing.

Cosmetic Acupuncture
Employs the principles of Chinese Medicine to benefit the skin. Used to help reduce fine lines and wrinkles, promote a healthy glow, improve muscle tone, stimulate circulation and lymphatic drainage, increase collagen and elastin production and reduce signs of stress and aging on the face.

Ear Seeds and
Auricular Acupuncture
In addition to the body there are many acupuncture points on the ear, this is called auricular acupuncture. Ear seeds are a good way to elongate the effects of acupuncture and can provide ongoing treatment at home. These can be left on for a few days and can be massaged a few times a day to receive benefit.

The Dolphin Neurostim is an FDA-approved device that uses MPS to relieve pain, reduce inflammation, and improve mobility. It's effective for chronic pain, scar tissue, and rehabilitation. The dolphin neurostim is also supportive of vagus nerve stimulation that helps support regulation of the nervous system and supports chronic conditions.

Red Light Thearapy
RLT works by stimulating the mitochondria of our cells. The stimulation of cells can help rejuvenate skin and boost collagen, speed recovery and enhance athletic performance, decrease pain and inflammation. It also has been proven to help stimulate dopamine and serotonin production to help uplift mood and promote relaxation as well as stimulate melatonin production to regulate circadian rhythm.
