Services
Acupuncture
Acupuncture treatments utilize ultra-fine needles to stimulate specific points on the body, effectively treating chronic pain, neurological disorders, and systemic health issues. Our approach combines traditional Chinese medicine principles with modern medical understanding to address conditions like migraines, fibromyalgia, and digestive disorders. Patients receive personalized treatment plans developed through comprehensive diagnostic assessments.
NAET Allergy Treatment
NAET treatments use acupuncture and acupressure to eliminate allergies and sensitivities through a systematic desensitization process. This technique addresses food allergies, environmental sensitivities, and chemical intolerances by recalibrating the body's response to allergens. Each session focuses on one specific allergen, following a proven protocol that includes 25-hour avoidance periods for lasting results.
Cupping Therapy
Cupping therapy employs controlled suction to release muscle tension and improve circulation, particularly effective for chronic pain and sports injuries. The treatment helps eliminate toxins, reduce inflammation, and accelerate recovery from muscle strains. Sessions typically last 10-15 minutes with visible improvements in mobility and pain reduction often experienced immediately.
Moxabustion
Moxabustion applies controlled heat through burning mugwort to stimulate circulation and relieve chronic pain. This therapy effectively treats cold-related conditions, joint stiffness, and digestive issues by warming specific acupuncture points. The treatment delivers penetrating warmth that reaches deep tissue structures for lasting therapeutic effects.
Pediatric Care
Specialized treatments for children address developmental challenges, allergies, and behavioral issues through gentle, non-invasive techniques. Our approach successfully treats conditions like ADHD, autism spectrum disorders, and bedwetting through customized NAET and acupuncture protocols. Treatment plans consider children's unique physiology while maintaining a comforting environment.

Report
We have been doing NAET for my son in our hometown of Raleigh NC. On a trip up here some specific things began bothering my son. Valerie was willing and available to step in and help us. We saw her while we were here and the allergies that were bothering my son we completely taken care of. We didn't need to shorten our trip or go the ER like we have had to previously. I'm so thankful for her knowledge and willingness to help us even though were were out of town guests. I highly recommend her knowing that the NAET treatments she provides are life changing.
