Services
Acupuncture
Acupuncture restores energy balance through precise needle placement at meridian points. This ancient practice treats chronic pain, emotional disorders, and systemic imbalances by stimulating natural healing responses. Our treatments use ultra-thin, disposable needles to ensure comfort and safety while addressing individual health concerns.
Cupping Therapy
Cupping therapy improves circulation and relieves muscle tension through controlled suction. This technique accelerates healing by increasing blood flow to targeted areas, effectively reducing pain and inflammation while enhancing range of motion and muscle recovery.
Gua Sha
Gua Sha alleviates musculoskeletal pain through guided skin stroking with smooth tools. This technique releases fascial restrictions, reduces inflammation, and improves circulation, particularly effective for neck and shoulder discomfort while promoting lymphatic drainage.
Moxibustion
Moxibustion applies controlled heat to acupuncture points using herbal bundles. This warming therapy enhances energy flow, strengthens immune function, and addresses cold-related conditions while complementing acupuncture treatments for deeper therapeutic effects.
Reiki
Reiki balances life energy through gentle hand placements that promote deep relaxation. This non-invasive technique reduces stress, complements other treatments, and restores energetic harmony to support the body's natural healing processes.

Report
I recently had a need to visit Carmen for her services as an acupuncturist. She started off by asking very thorough and appropriate questions which got to the very root of my needs. As such, I want to say that Carmen is a good listener...this I believe is an essential component of a good healer! As an acupuncturist, she is amazing!! Her technique is gentle and yet extremely productive. She knew the correct spots along the various Meridians to install the needles so much so that it took only one session with her to overcome my condition. She resolved my discomfort and pain in one visit what

Acupuncture & weight management
I've been seeing Carmen DeVore Acupuncturist, once a week lately. We have been addressing minor issues, once I have been an acupuncture client for years to keep my health and wellbeing in check. She is gentle and associates Reiki and other modalities during the session what really makes it very pleasant! Last week we were talking about healthy habits and nutrition and she kindly offered me to use acupuncture for cravings and weight management whenever I would be ready to do my part. I thought would be such a great help, and said yes!
Well... Since then
