Energy Realignment
Acupuncture is a healing practice that helps correct imbalances of energy, or Qi, in the body.
Acupuncture can improve your whole wellbeing and can treat symptoms of a wide variety of conditions. Acupuncture also effectively manages various health symptoms, including pain, anxiety and depression, hormone regulation, and migraine headaches.
All this may explain why acupuncture is Western culture's most popular form of Traditional Chinese Medicine.

How It Works
First Session
We encourage first-time visitors to start with a 90-minute Foundation Session. This gives you time to ask questions and review your self-care practices, diagnoses, supplements, and desired outcomes.
Follow-Up Sessions
Following your Foundation Session, follow-up appointments are available in 30, 60, and 90-minute increments.
Preparing for Your Sessions
Before coming to a session, eat a little so you do not arrive hungry. Plan to undress to your comfort for an individual session and be covered by a sheet and blanket (similar to a massage).
Types of TCM
The following types of Traditional Chinese Medicine are available:
- Acupuncture – Acupuncture is a component of TCM in which thin needles are inserted into the body's meridians.
- Acupressure – Acupressure complements acupuncture, where physical pressure is applied to the body's meridians instead of needles.
- Tui Na – Tui Na practitioners brush, knead, roll, press, and rub the body to move energy through the body's meridians and muscles.
- Cupping – Cupping uses heated cups to create suction on the skin's surface for pain relief and relaxation.
- Gua Sha – Gua sha applies pressure to the skin using a smooth-edge tool to relieve blood stasis and stimulate new blood flow.
