ACUPUNCTURE
Acupuncture is the art of treating disease
by inserting needles into specific points on
the body.
It is used to free the body of blockages in
energy called the "qi". This form of treatment has been
utilized for thousands of years and
continues to show effective and safe
outcomes for treating more than just pain.
Treatments are generally very relaxing and
rejuvenating. |

The
insertion of each needle is done with care
and expertise.
The
sensation of the needles varies among each
patient.
Many claim a sense of relaxation and comfort
once the needles are inserted. The needles
are very thin and only sterile individually
packaged, single- use needles are used. |

HERBS
Herbal medicine is often used in conjunction
with treatments. Chinese herbs are
thoughtfully put together in various forms
according to each particular diagnosis. Herb
formulas come as teas, pills, and powder
granules. The clinic uses two offsite Herbal
Pharmacies that are very well established.
If an herbal formula is recommended you will
be directed to these pharmacies for private
payment and direct shipment.

comfort. |

CUPPING
Cupping is a
ancient form of treatment that involves
using fire to heat glass cups which are
placed on various areas of the body. By
heating the cups a vacuum is created that
allows for a gentle pulling effect. This
pulling allows for circulation of blood, qi
and body fluids.
It is said that cupping is used to remove
toxins from the body making it very
effective for the treatment of colds and
viruses. It can also break up stagnation
freeing the body of aches and pains.
Cupping can provide for deep relaxation
throughout the whole body |

ELECTRO STIMULATION
Gentle
currents are used to stimulate certain
points on the body.
This form of treatment allows for constant
stimulation and is extremely effective in
treating pain in the muscles and joints.
Electro stimulation works wells for
arthritis, muscle tension, body trauma, post
stroke rehabilitation, and weight loss. |

TUI NA
(CHINESE MASSAGE)
This type of massage uses the same points on
the body as acupuncture. Various levels of
pressure are applied to the points to
achieve stimulation. While Tui Na (twee-
nah) can be extremely relaxing in its
effectiveness of treating muscle tension it
does provide for strong touch and is
considered more of a medical therapy than
relaxation therapy. It is effective in
treating acute or chronic injury, back pain,
arthritic pain, and headaches. Treatments
encourage the circulation of qi and blood. |

NUTRITION
Not all food is created equal. Some foods
hold more energetic potential than others.
Eastern nutrition gives food different
energetic properties to help encourage
health and healing. Western nutrition
assigns the vitamins and minerals to foods
that explain their health benefits. Either
way it is important to make necessary
changes in the diet to restore balance in
your body. This is an essential component to
living a healthy life style. |
