Our Healing Services and Techniques

Acupuncture
Acupuncture needles are actually slender, sterile wires. They are designed for single use only. These fine needles are strategically inserted into specific points on the body. Most of the time, the patient feels something akin to a small mosquito bite or can feel nothing at all during needle insertion. The function of the needle placement is to enhance blood circulation, reduce inflammation, relax muscles, and facilitate various physiological changes that aid in the body’s healing process.
Cupping Therapy
Cupping therapy, a time-honored practice, promotes blood flow and alleviates tension in muscles and fascia. During this treatment, specialized suction cups are strategically placed on targeted areas and can be adjusted by the acupuncturist to achieve optimal results. This method not only enhances circulation but also helps to soothe tightness, providing a holistic approach to wellness that has been celebrated for centuries.
Tui Na Massage
Tui Na massage, an age-old Chinese therapeutic practice, employs various techniques including pressure application, kneading, and rolling of the skin, muscles, and acupuncture points. This holistic approach aims to address physical imbalances within the body, enhancing its natural healing capabilities. By focusing on these manipulative methods, Tui Na not only alleviates discomfort but also promotes overall wellness, encouraging the body's innate ability to restore health and balance.
Guasha Therapy
Gua sha therapy utilizes a smooth instrument, such as a Chinese soup spoon or a dedicated Gua Sha tool, which is gently scraped or glided over lubricated skin. This practice effectively alleviates physical issues stemming from localized heat retention, boosts circulation of blood, lymph, and essential nutrients throughout the body. It can also be used to strengthen the immune response and help to reduce inflammation.
Electro Acupuncture
Electro-Acupuncture is designed to address a variety of conditions including muscle spasms, paralysis, chronic pain, neuropathy, and other neurological disorders. This technique utilizes a TENS unit in conjunction with acupuncture needles. The electrical stimulation induces repeated muscle contraction and relaxation. This helps to fatigue overactive muscles while enhancing blood circulation to support the healing of injured tissues.
Heat Therapy
Our heat therapy incorporates two distinct methods: TDP mineral/infrared lamp and Moxibustion. The TDP lamp utilizes far-infrared light to enhance circulation and reduce inflammation. This creates relaxation of tendons, muscles, and fascia, and enhances the blood flow while its unique mineral plate provides additional benefits for arthritic conditions. Moxibustion involves the use of warmed herbs, which are absorbed to diminish inflammation and promote healing from within.
Asian Diet Therapy
Each food possesses unique characteristics, including taste (such as sweet, sour, spicy, salty, and bitter), and temperature (warming, cooling, or cold). By leveraging these distinct properties, we can utilize food as a form of physical medicine to enhance our body's performance and alleviate symptoms resulting from imbalances in organ functions. Embracing the therapeutic potential of food can foster greater harmony within our bodies.
