Traditional Chinese Medicine
Therapies offered:
Acupuncture
The Acupuncture treatment involves the insertion of very fine,
sterilized, single-use needles throughout the body at specific
locations called acupoints. Stimulation of these acupoints with
the needles balances the body's energy, promoting healing in the
body.
Moxa Therapy
Moxabustion, or moxa therapy, is the burning of the herb mugwort (artemesia
vulgaris) which is a part of traditional Chinese medicine. I use
moxa therapy often with Acupuncture to facilitate healing, increase
energy, improve blood circulation, strengthen the qi and blood, warm
and soothe the meridians.
Cupping
Cupping is a technique most beneficial for respiratory conditions,
asthma, bronchitis, colds and flu, as well as muscular skeletal
conditions of all kinds. Pressure is reduced inside a glass cup to
create a vacuum on the skin during this painless technique. The
pressure from the vacuum encourages the flow of qi and blood in the
area beneath of cup.
