Services
Acupuncture
Our acupuncture treatments use ultra-fine needles to stimulate specific points along the body's meridians, promoting natural healing and pain relief. Specializing in the Kiiko Matsumoto method, we focus on palpation-based diagnosis to address both symptoms and root causes. Patients experience reduced inflammation, improved circulation, and restored physiological balance through this ancient practice adapted for modern wellness needs.
Herbal Medicine
Custom herbal formulations complement our acupuncture treatments, offering targeted support for various health conditions. Our practitioners prescribe tailored combinations of time-tested botanical remedies to enhance treatment effectiveness. Available in multiple formats including pills, tinctures, and liquid decoctions, these natural solutions work synergistically with acupuncture to promote comprehensive healing without pharmaceutical side effects.
Moxibustion
This traditional technique uses carefully controlled heat from mugwort herb to stimulate acupuncture points. Koshiishi-style direct moxibustion improves circulation and relieves pain without skin damage. Particularly effective for musculoskeletal issues, fertility support, and stress-related conditions, this warming therapy enhances energy flow and promotes deep relaxation through gentle thermal stimulation.
Light Therapy
Our InLight Medical System uses polychromatic LED wavelengths to stimulate cellular healing and reduce inflammation. This non-invasive therapy combines red, blue, and near-infrared light with Nogier frequencies to address chronic pain, skin conditions, and neuropathy. Patients experience improved circulation, accelerated tissue repair, and enhanced mood through this cutting-edge modality that complements traditional acupuncture treatments.
Qi Gong Instruction
Personalized Qi Gong sessions teach movement-based meditation techniques to enhance energy flow and self-healing capacity. Our instructor-guided practice combines breathwork, gentle movements, and visualization to improve circulation, strengthen immunity, and reduce stress. Tailored to individual needs following Chinese medical diagnosis, these sessions empower patients to maintain wellness between treatments through accessible, daily self-care practices.
