Acupuncture
Acupuncture treatments stimulate specific body points to alleviate pain and restore balance. We use Master Tung Technique and Dr. Tan Balance Method for chronic pain, migraines, and musculoskeletal disorders. Electro-acupuncture enhances treatment effectiveness for nerve-related conditions.
Infertility and ART
Specialized acupuncture and herbal protocols enhance fertility naturally and complement assisted reproductive technologies. We prepare bodies for IUI/IVF cycles while addressing hormonal imbalances and stress factors affecting conception through integrative treatment plans.
Chinese Herbal
Customized herbal prescriptions target specific health concerns using traditional Chinese formulations. Our approach addresses digestive issues, autoimmune conditions, and chronic fatigue while complementing other treatments for comprehensive healing.
Cupping Therapy
Cupping therapy improves circulation and relieves muscle tension through controlled suction. This treatment addresses sports injuries, chronic pain, and inflammation while promoting lymphatic drainage and toxin removal.
Neuropathy Treatment
Combining acupuncture with BioTherapy techniques, we target neuropathic pain through increased blood flow and nerve stimulation. This approach addresses diabetic neuropathy, post-chemotherapy pain, and other nerve-related conditions through non-invasive methods.

Report
Christine is very knowledgeable. I was having leg and hip pain at night and could not sleep. After trying a few different ways to treat the problem, she determined it was from my Sciatica and my lower back. I am pain free and the movement in my hip and legs are much better. Thank you so much Christine! I will be back for my follow-ups as needed!

Christine knows her stuff. Not only does she know where to put the needles, she also has deep knowledge of herbs and has helped me with digestive issues, fatigue, and chronic pain. She is a shaman, a healer, and really cares about her clients. I'm grateful to have found her.

I found Dr. Connor in December of 2018. She turned my life around. My back pain was so bad I could only work 6 days a month in 3 hour increments. Now I work 5 days a week, 8 hour days - I have minimal back pain and I own a commercial janitorial busines, doing manual labor. Digestion, emotional and stress have all improved and I feel balanced and calm and increased energy. I continue treatments weekly to keep up my healthy progress. Thank you
