Acupuncture

From its formalization in China more than 3,000 years ago, acupuncture has been used to prevent, diagnose and treat disease, as well as to improve general physical and mental health without drugs or surgery. Acupuncture is a complete medical protocol focused on correcting imbalances of energy and blood in the body, or more known as "Qi"(pronounced chee). The stimulation of Qi through acupuncture allows the body to rebalance from the negative impacts of daily life and disease, while treating the root cause. Acupuncture has been used for both mental and physical diseases but is mostly known for its treatment for pain.

Cupping Therapy

Cupping is the term applied to a technique that uses small glass or plastic cups as suction devices that are placed on the skin to disperse and break up stagnation and congestion by drawing congested blood, energy or other humors to the surface. The skin and superficial muscle layer is lightly drawn into the cup and can be used for many purposes: pain, inflammation, circulatory problems, muscle stiffness, muscle spasms, performance enhancement, relaxation, and stress reduction.

Things You Can Do To Facilitate Healing With Acupuncture

For best results, please schedule your activities so that you do not come in when extremely hungry, immediately after eating, or when extremely tired.  After treatment, take it easy and assimilate the effects of the treatment for a few hours, if possible.  Do your best not to be too busy and/or strenuously exercise after your treatment.  Wait at least an hour to eat a full meal and do not swim.  While undergoing treatment, you may benefit most by refraining from excessive use of caffeine, cigarettes, alcohol, and non-prescription substances.

You will help yourself most by getting enough sleep, nutrition, and exercise as well as setting aside some time each day for complete and mental relaxation.  And give thanks every day for your life!

Your health and well-being are important to me.  I will do my best to facilitate you on your healing path, and the best way to partner with me in bringing you to your optimum health is to follow through with the recommendations that I give you.  And always feel free to ask questions and provide feedback.

Stop guessing. Start living.

 

Whether it’s your first step to a healthier life or your last resort, Chinese medicine gives you the power to make positive changes.
