Services
Acupuncture
Acupuncture involves inserting fine needles into specific points to restore Qi flow and balance bodily systems. This treatment effectively addresses chronic pain, stress, anxiety, and hormonal imbalances by stimulating the body's natural healing processes. Patients experience improved circulation, reduced inflammation, and enhanced overall wellness through regular sessions tailored to their unique health needs.
Chinese Herbal Medicine
Customized herbal formulas complement acupuncture treatments to address specific health concerns. These time-tested remedies support digestive health, hormonal balance, and immune function while targeting root causes of conditions like endometriosis and arthritis. Patients receive personalized prescriptions based on thorough assessments of their symptoms and lifestyle factors.
Women's Health
Specialized treatments support women through all life stages, from menstrual cycle regulation to menopause transition. Fertility acupuncture enhances IVF success rates, while post-partum care addresses hormonal imbalances and recovery needs. Our holistic approach combines acupuncture, herbs, and nutritional guidance to optimize reproductive health and overall well-being.
Cupping Therapy
Cupping uses suction to relieve muscle tension and improve circulation in targeted areas. This therapy effectively treats sports injuries, chronic pain, and scar tissue adhesions by promoting blood flow and releasing fascial restrictions. Patients experience immediate relaxation and improved mobility following sessions that integrate seamlessly with acupuncture treatments.
Stress Management
Acupuncture protocols specifically target stress-related conditions by regulating the nervous system and hormone production. Patients learn personalized stress-reduction techniques alongside treatments that alleviate physical manifestations of anxiety, including headaches and digestive issues. This comprehensive approach fosters emotional resilience and improved sleep quality.

There arent enough words to describe Ayla. She cares deeply about her clients, and is always available should you need a quick last minute appointment. I was a total skeptic re acupuncture and she made me a believer. I feel 10x lighter and at peace after my appointments. Ive come in with sciatica so painful I could barely walk, and the next day its practically gone. So stressed out and leave calm. But most importantly, Ayla is an amazing listener, healer and human.

I love Ayla Yavin and her acupuncture team. They are all so professional and kind. I never felt any pain during my sessions and always left feeling better than when I came in. I always felt relaxed when I walked into the office. It's a beautiful space. Anyone would be lucky to visit Ayla and her team.

Ayla is the best. Friendly and personable. Nice office and very good at what she does. I have been seeing her to help with damaged nerves in my leg that conventional medicine is unable to fix. The acupuncture has helped and my leg does not drag as much as it did before. The stimulation the acupuncture has provided has definitely increased the nerve activity in my leg. I am sure this is going to be a long term slow improvement and my leg may never be fully healed but Ayla's knowledge has helped and my leg keeps slowly improving rather than getting worse as the regular doctors believed it would.

I had a great experience with Ayla Yavin, it was my first time using acupuncture to address symptoms of a women's health issue. The treatment along with Chinese Herbs prescribed, was effective. I have highly recommended her to other friends and colleagues!
