Services
Acupuncture
Our acupuncture treatments use fine needles to stimulate specific points, promoting natural healing and pain relief. This ancient practice effectively addresses chronic pain, stress, and various health conditions. Patients experience improved energy flow and restored bodily balance through personalized sessions.
Cupping Therapy
Cupping therapy employs controlled suction to release muscle tension and improve circulation. This technique effectively reduces pain from injuries, enhances athletic recovery, and alleviates respiratory conditions. Sessions leave patients with noticeable muscle relaxation and improved range of motion.
Medical Yoga
Medical yoga combines modified postures with breathwork to address specific health concerns. Our instructors tailor sequences to improve flexibility, reduce stress, and manage chronic conditions. This practice integrates seamlessly with other treatments for comprehensive wellness outcomes.
Nutritional Counseling
Personalized nutrition guidance focuses on healing through whole foods and dietary modifications. Our experts address food sensitivities, hormonal imbalances, and digestive issues. Patients receive practical meal plans that complement their treatment programs for lasting health improvements.
Reiki Healing
Reiki sessions channel universal energy to promote deep relaxation and self-healing. Practitioners use gentle touch to balance energy flow, reducing stress and emotional blockages. Patients often report renewed vitality and improved mental clarity after these non-invasive treatments.

I would highly suggest that whomever is struggling with appointments, find another option. The contact number for this location isn't direct to the actual center. It's connected to a central phone desk. My experience unfortunately is strictly based on the fact that I have a very serious spinal issue. I have a tremendous amnt of difficulty driving. Unfortunately I drove to this office, over 40 miles from home, and was stuck in what appeared to be a very serious car accident. I contacted the main number, well before the appointment time. I advised the representative who was so caring and

After months of physical therapy to treat piriformis, I made an appointment at East Meets West for a deep tissue massage with Jennica. The tightness in my glutes that had been hurting me for over a year was instantly fixed. I was shocked by how the massage had cleared me of any pain. Jennica also sent me video recommendations with stretches to help with any muscle tightness. So glad I found East Meets West!

After spending $85, you walk out with the same pain.
Did the cupping. She left me with the cups in the room for thirty minutes. I layed there as the cups fell off. The dog came into the room, hygiene of the dog felt unclean and unprofessional. Final verdict: The decor was east, the cupping was west I guess (Referring to the name). Left the place feeling the same pain. She had no clue how to do cupping. Maybe try them for other services. But cupping, noooooo. She also tried to upsell a massage afterwards. One good thing: Able to schedule you in last minute. Wish she didn't though, and

I made an appointment with Devon for a treatment of Orthobionomy and as an accompaniment, added on an acupuncture treatment with Polina to follow. Let me be clear, Devon was great and although the modality of Orthobionomy is very subtle, he was a good practitioner. If I were only reviewing Devon, I would give 3-4 stars but the second half of the experience really ruined it all for me. Once I got to the Polina treatment... we certainly did NOT jive right off the bat. I felt she was standoffish and somewhat off-putting and I'm sure she would say the same about me. We may not have hit it off
