Acupuncture
Acupuncture is the insertion of fine, single-use disposable needles into the skin and muscle tissue. The technique and depth depend on your condition of the day. It is not as painful as the hypodermic needle you may have experienced in the past. Ideally, you will feel a deeper sensation within your tissues and even a traveling sensation in your body conduits. Most people fall asleep during acupuncture and we fondly call this the “acu-nap.”
Cupping Therapy
Many people who struggle with chronic pain find relief through cupping therapy, especially when administered alongside other standard chiropractic procedures. We can help patients find the lasting relief they need with a customized treatment plan. Cupping therapy is a form of treatment that involves placing specialized cups on the skin for a few minutes to treat pain, blood flow and inflammation.
Herbal Supplements In Eastern Medicine
Herbal medicine is used to help balance today’s lifestyle equation. Mainly plant-based, the best tools are well-formulated herbal supplement plans that match your current condition and diagnosis. Your Licensed Acupuncturist & Herbalist specifies a formulation to treat both the root and branch of your condition. Essentially, the root cause needs to be addressed to avoid branch symptoms from reoccurring. Herbs work best when combined synergistically and pair excellently with your specific acupuncture treatment.
