Services
Acupuncture
Acupuncture uses thin needles at specific points to stimulate healing and balance. This ancient practice effectively addresses menstrual irregularities, chronic pain, digestive issues, and emotional imbalances. Patients often experience deep relaxation and noticeable improvements within initial sessions, with treatment plans tailored to individual recovery speeds.
Herbal Medicine
Custom herbal formulas utilize nature's chemical balance for targeted healing without side effects. These remedies address both acute conditions and preventative care, adjusting as the body heals. Rooted in shamanic traditions and modern research, this therapy strengthens immunity against stress and pathogens.
Cupping Therapy
Cupping creates therapeutic suction to enhance lymphatic flow and tissue repair. This centuries-old technique relieves muscle tension, respiratory issues, and inflammation. Temporary markings indicate effective treatment response, with patients reporting immediate relaxation and improved mobility following sessions.
Nutritional Counseling
Personalized nutrition plans combine Chinese dietary principles with modern science. Sessions address food-body type interactions, seasonal eating, and mindful consumption practices. Custom meal plans and ongoing support help patients optimize health through daily food choices and preparation methods.
Women's Health
Specialized care addresses menstrual disorders, fertility challenges, and menopausal transitions. Treatment integrates acupuncture, herbs, and lifestyle modifications to restore hormonal balance. Services support women through all life stages, from reproductive years to postpartum recovery and beyond.

Questions
What conditions do you treat?
We treat hormonal imbalances, digestive disorders, chronic pain, anxiety, insomnia, and women's health issues. Our approach addresses both symptoms and root causes through integrated therapies.
What should I expect during my first visit?
Initial consultations last 90 minutes, including health history review and personalized treatment. Subsequent visits take about an hour, combining acupuncture, cupping, and dietary recommendations as needed.
Do you accept insurance?
We provide superbill documentation for potential insurance reimbursement but do not directly bill insurance providers. Payment is required at time of service.
How does your approach differ from conventional medicine?
We focus on restoring systemic balance rather than symptom suppression. Our treatments work with your body's natural healing systems using acupuncture, herbs, and lifestyle modifications.
Are your treatments painful?
Acupuncture uses thin needles with minimal sensation. Cupping creates therapeutic pressure without discomfort. Most patients find treatments deeply relaxing with immediate positive effects.
How often should I schedule treatments?
Treatment frequency depends on individual needs. Acute conditions may require weekly sessions, while maintenance plans typically involve monthly visits for sustained wellness.
