Services
Acupuncture
Acupuncture uses sterile needles at specific points to balance Qi flow and stimulate healing. This FDA-recognized treatment alleviates chronic pain, reduces stress, and improves organ function by triggering neurotransmitter release. Patients receive customized sessions lasting 30-90 minutes, combining techniques like electro-stimulation for enhanced pain management outcomes.
NAET Allergy Elimination
NAET combines acupressure, kinesiology, and elimination diets to address allergies at their source. Through 30-90 minute sessions, practitioners desensitize patients to allergens causing symptoms ranging from digestive issues to respiratory problems. This non-invasive approach strengthens immune responses while educating patients about environmental triggers.
Chinese Herbal Medicine
Custom herbal formulas target individual health patterns using time-tested combinations of raw herbs, powders, or pills. Our practitioners prescribe blends that regulate bodily systems while ensuring safety through rigorous sourcing standards. Dietary therapy guidance complements herbal prescriptions for comprehensive digestive and hormonal support.
Therapeutic Massage
Tailored massage sessions integrate Swedish, deep tissue, and Amma techniques to relieve muscular tension. Practitioners address specific concerns like sports injuries or chronic pain through 30-60 minute appointments focused on improving circulation and restoring mobility in targeted body areas.
Neuro-Emotional Technique
NET sessions lasting 15-30 minutes resolve emotional blockages stored in the body using pulse point diagnostics and kinesiology. This mind-body approach identifies stress patterns contributing to physical ailments, helping patients achieve emotional balance that supports overall treatment effectiveness.
