Acupuncture
Acupuncture uses sterilized needles to stimulate specific body points, enhancing natural healing abilities. This treatment effectively addresses chronic pain, migraines, and respiratory issues by restoring energy flow. Our technique follows WHO/National Institutes of Health standards, providing safe, drug-free solutions for musculoskeletal disorders and stress-related conditions through precise point stimulation.
Cupping Therapy
This ancient technique improves circulation and relieves muscle tension through controlled suction cups. We apply glass cups to specific areas to treat back pain, inflammation, and respiratory conditions. Sessions last 15-20 minutes, promoting detoxification while enhancing local blood flow to accelerate tissue repair and reduce chronic pain symptoms.
Herbal Medicine
Custom herbal formulas address individual health needs, combining 1,800 traditional ingredients in precise ratios. We create personalized blends to treat digestive disorders, hormonal imbalances, and immune deficiencies. Formulas come as teas, tinctures, or capsules, following 5,000-year-old practices that minimize side effects through synergistic herb combinations under NCCAOM-certified supervision.

Wonderful option when western medicine isn't working. No pain, just relax and take a nap. You will feel much better!

I was skeptical about acupuncture. I had torn my shoulder a few years ago, and it becomes very inflamed and very painful at times. I went my primary physician and they gave me muscle relaxers and prescribed physical therapy as well as massage therapy. Neither of these options took care of the issue. After my fist session with Dr. Eva (awesome lady btw), I was blown away. After the one session my shoulder felt much better. After my second session I was brand new and pain free. I highly recommend acupuncture. It does work wonders. It's much healthier than taking pain pills to mask the issue. You
