Modalities Offered
Acupuncture treatments are a wonderful way to maintain optimal health - both physical and emotional. In addition to being extremely effective at treating pain and injury, it has been shown to help alleviate depression, anxiety, insomnia, seasonal allergies, and more.
Cupping has been used for millennia by cultures around the world. It feels like a reverse massage, with a pulling sensation instead of pressure. Cupping increases blood flow, releases muscle tension and breaks up fascial adhesions. We use it frequently to treat tightness and pain.
Massage Therapy helps the body heal from both acute and chronic pain and is preventative in nature. We offer tailored sessions using techniques such as sports massage, deep tissue massage, swedish massage, integrative bodywork, myofascial release, craniosacral, and more.
Sports Medicine / Orthopedic Acupuncture is a great addition to a recovery or training plan. It addresses muscle imbalances, scar tissue, fascial adhesions and injury. Our practitioners are skilled in orthopedic assessment that can help identify root causes of pain and movement dysfunction and avoid future injuries.
Gua Sha brings blood and lymph from deep in the tissue to the surface to improve circulation and bring fresh oxygenated blood to muscle and fascial tissue. It is a very useful addition to acupuncture and massage in treating tension headaches, plantar fasciitis, tennis elbow, neck pain, rotator cuff pain, and so much more.
Chinese Herbal Medicine is a powerful tool for addressing many conditions. This approach has been used for thousands of years for everything from the common cold to upset stomach to menstrual irregularities.
