Acupuncture
Acupuncture is one component of the Traditional Chinese Medicine (TCM) system of health care. An acupuncturist will develop a treatment plan based on individual signs and symptoms using subtle methods of diagnosis, such as pulse and tongue evaluation, and a thorough health history.
Acupuncture uses extremely fine, flexible, single-use disposable needles to stimulate specific points along the body’s meridians (energy pathways). Acupuncture needles typically remain inserted for 20-30 minutes stimulating acupuncture points, though the duration may vary depending on treatment requirements.
Common issues treated with acupuncture are: headaches and migraines, musculoskeletal pain, joint and muscle pain, skin conditions, digestive disorders, stress, anxiety, addictions, infertility, pregnancy support and induction, allergies.
Massage Therapy
Most people have some understanding of the benefits of massage. Whether a quick shoulder massage to relieve tension, or a full body relaxation massage, most people have experienced the relief that massage provides.
What is lesser known is that massage can directly affect not only the function of the muscular system, but the nervous, circulatory, and immune systems as well. Whole body massage can aid in recovery from an injury or accident, increase range of motion, and calm the nervous system. By temporarily increasing circulation and lowering blood pressure, massage also works to promote mental clarity and increase the feeling of overall well-being.
We offer the following types of massage therapy: Sports/Injury Massage, Swedish Relaxation Massage, Deep Tissue Massage, Pre-Natal Massage, Lymphatic Drainage, Myofascial Release, Lensen - Muscle Energy, Cupping
