Options For You
ACUPUNCTURE SESSION
A session includes a variety of techniques including evaluation, acupuncture, electro-stim, cupping, moxibustion, and massage. This is a very comprehensive treatment developed based on each patient’s needs.
CUPPING
A part of Chinese Medicine for over 2,500 year, cupping relieves aches and pains, improves circulation, and also helps with respiratory and digestive issues. A specialized "cup" onto specific points or areas on your body, and then use suction to draw your skin up into the cups. It doesn't hurt — it simply draws fresh blood to that area of your body, which facilitates blood circulation. This helps to clear adhesions in your muscles and fascia to reduce pain, and improve blood flow throughout the body.
MOXIBUSTION
A Traditional Chinese Medicine technique that involves the burning of mugwort, a small, spongy herb, to create heat at a specific point or area of the body. Moxibustion has been used for healing purposes throughout Asia for thousands of years. The high heat that this process produces strongly increases blood flow to a particular area or point. This is commonly used for many types of tendon injuries, and for many fertility issues to improve blood flow to the uterus.
ELECTROACUPUNCTURE
A highly effective holistic treatment for pain, nausea, and chronic ailments. In practice, it is actually very similar to traditional acupuncture. Using the exact same system of Chinese Medicine, I insert very thin and sterile needles into specific points along the meridians of your body. I then attach the needles to a device that delivers gentle electrical pulses between two points. This helps restore the healthy flow of Qi (energy) through your body, removing any blockages and clearing out stagnation in the tissue. Electroacupuncture is also very useful to stimulate muscle function in the case of partial paralysis with Bell’s Palsy or after a stroke.
FERTILITY & ACUPUNCTURE
Acupuncture has been shown to be very effective in enhancing the success rates of a women undergoing IVF procedures. The aim of treatment is to increase blood flow to the uterus and to reduce stress so that the body is most receptive to the IVF procedures.
Infertility can also be addressed with acupuncture without the use of infertility drugs.
This is a very individualized treatment process, so please contact me to further discuss your needs.

I come to your place of business and set up a mini treatment room as a benefit to your employees. Treatments are focused on the issues of stress management, fatigue, headaches, allergies, and to help people quit smoking. This is a great program that provides employees with benefits that extend well beyond the treatment room!
