WELLNESS SERVICES
Acupuncture
Acupuncture promotes natural healing and also enhances recuperative power and immunity. It also supports physical and emotional health and improves overall function and well-being. It can be used as a stand-alone treatment or as part of an integrative health plan.
Cupping
The suction and negative pressure provided by cupping can loosen muscles, encourage blood flow, and relax the nervous system. Cupping is used to relieve back and neck pains, stiff muscles, anxiety, fatigue, migraines, rheumatism, and many more.
Herbs
Chinese herbs are prescribed to restore energy balance to the opposing forces of energy – Yin and Yang. Custom formulations are highly effective when taken as prescribed and are safe. When Yin and Yang fall out of balance it can lead to a range of health issues.
Asian Bodywork
Tuina is a therapeutic massage that is a treatment to address specific patterns of disharmony. Shiatsu means “finger pressure,” which includes massages with fingers, thumbs, feet and palms, assisted stretching and joint mobilization.
Microneedling
Microneedling is a very simple, safe, effective, and minimally invasive therapeutic technique. It was initially introduced for skin rejuvenation, however, now it is being used for a very wide range of indications including facial lines/wrinkles, acne scars, acne, post-traumatic/burn scar, alopecia, surgical scars, hyper pigmentation, drug delivery, hyperhidrosis, stretch marks, and many more.
