Services
Acupuncture
Acupuncture treatments use fine needles at specific points to balance bio-energetic systems and relieve pain or illness. Our practitioners apply both traditional techniques and modern scientific approaches to address various conditions. Most patients experience rapid relief through this energy rebalancing process.
Tui Na
Tui Na combines acupressure and therapeutic massage to treat health complaints by restoring energy flow. This technique accelerates healing for musculoskeletal issues while serving as preventative care. We integrate it with herbal medicine and acupuncture for comprehensive treatment.
Integrative Wellness
Our integrative approach addresses body, mind, and spirit through lifestyle modifications and traditional therapies. We help patients commit to self-development while incorporating modern scientific knowledge. This comprehensive strategy promotes long-term health improvements beyond symptom relief.
Cupping Therapy
Cupping uses controlled suction to stimulate blood flow and energy pathways in the body. This ancient technique effectively treats muscle tension, pain, and circulation issues. We incorporate it as part of our multi-modal treatment approach for enhanced therapeutic effects.
Graston Technique
Graston technique employs specialized instruments to detect and treat soft tissue restrictions. This evidence-based method accelerates recovery from musculoskeletal injuries. We combine it with other traditional therapies for optimal patient outcomes.

Great experience! Terry Frank took time to understand my issues and was able to diagnose and work on areas that other medical professions could not. Within the time I was there, I could already sense some relief for my pain and left with a plan to help long term. Highly recommend!

Both my husband and I have been to traditional chiropractors through the years only to have to repeat treatments over and over with short term relief. The drs at this center diagnosed and successfully treated both of us. I highly recommend them.
