Services
Acupuncture
Our acupuncture treatments use thin filiform needles to stimulate specific meridian points for therapeutic effects. This technique addresses pain management, nerve issues, and internal medicine conditions through precise needle placement. Patients typically experience noticeable improvements within 8-10 sessions.
Gua Sha
Gua Sha involves controlled skin scraping to relieve muscle tension and improve circulation. This traditional technique creates temporary petechiae while increasing microcirculation by up to 300% for lasting pain relief and inflammation reduction.
Cupping
Cupping therapy applies controlled suction to specific body areas to reduce inflammation and improve blood flow. The treatment duration varies between 5-20 minutes per session, often leaving temporary circular marks that fade naturally.
Moxabustion
Moxabustion uses burning mugwort to stimulate acupuncture points through heat. We offer both direct and indirect methods, with the latter often combined with needle therapy for enhanced therapeutic effects in treating chronic conditions.
Herbal Medicine
Our herbal program features FDA-registered suppliers offering customized formulas in multiple formats. Patients receive tailored treatment plans using teapills, granules, or raw herbs to address specific health concerns without pharmaceutical side effects.
