Acupuncture
Acupuncture is based on the premise that bodily functions are regulated by an energy called chi or qi which flows through the body; disruptions of this flow are believed to be responsible for disease. Acupuncture describes a family of procedures aiming to correct imbalances in the flow of chi by stimulation of anatomical locations on or under the skin by a variety of techniques. The most common mechanism of stimulation of acupuncture points employs penetration of the skin by thin metal needles, which are manipulated manually or by electrical stimulation. See pricing.
Microneedling
Microneedling is a minimally invasive outpatient procedure using thin needles to stimulate the skin. A microneedling procedure can reduce the appearance of skin concerns such as acne scars, stretch marks, fine lines or wrinkles. It also can help with medical conditions such as alopecia and hyperhidrosis. It works by increasing your skin’s natural ability to repair itself by stimulating collagen production, increasing blood supply, nutrients, and oxygen to the dermis which is the support structure for the surface layer or epidermis of your skin.

Chinese Herbs
Herbs have been used in Chinese Medicine for over 5000 years. Herbs and food therapy can be used to improve energy, reduce acid reflux disease and hypertension. The longevity of life is also realized when health is improved with Chinese Medicine. Herbs are very safe to take when prescribed by a trained professional.
Food Therapy & Digestive Disorders
Get to the root of digestive disorders with food therapy to address heartburn, constipation, colitis, gas, bloating, food allergies, acid reflux, diarrhea, low energy, stomach cramps and irritable bowel syndrome (IBS).
Some remedies are as easy as drinking peppermint tea for upper GI issues and eating watermelon for lower GI issues. The digestive function is an important part of our overall health and 70% of our immunity! If your digestive system functions properly, then your energy and immunity is at it’s highest potential.
If any aspect of digestion is off balance then immunity and energy automatically suffer. So if you’re tired of being tired, ridden with stomach pain and fear taking prescriptions the rest of your life then food therapy could be your answer to optimal health.
Tui Na
Tui na (Chinese: 推拏 or 推拿; pinyin: tuī ná), is a form of Chinese manipulative therapy often used in conjunction with acupuncture, moxibustion, fire cupping, Chinese herbalism, t’ai chi, and qigong.
Tui na is a hands-on body treatment that uses Chinese taoist and martial art principles to bring the body to balance. The principles being balanced are the eight principles of Traditional Chinese Medicine (qv because Traditional Chinese Medicine (TCM) was codified by the PRC out of many ancient traditions). The practitioner may brush, knead, roll/press and rub the areas between each of the joints (known as the eight gates) to open the body’s defensive (wei) chi and get the energy moving in the meridians as well as the muscles. The practitioner can then use range of motion, traction, massage, with the stimulation of acupressure points; this is claimed to treat both acute and chronic musculoskeletal conditions, as well as many non-musculoskeletal conditions. Tui na is an integral part of Oriental medicine.
