Acupuncture
Acupuncture and other kinds of treatments offered
Types of Acupuncture:
Acupuncture
Acupuncture concentrates on the electrical energy in the Meridian system and organs. Energy, also known as life force or Qi, circulates along 14 channels, called meridians, through the body. When the Qi is blocked, the flow of energy is impaired and can result in pain and illness. By placing hair-fine needles into specific acupuncture points along the channels, the energy is rebalanced and blockages are removed, allowing the Qi to flow and restore harmony between the body's opposing forces of Yin and Yang.
Micro Acupuncture
Micro Acupuncture is a treatment procedure for Eye Disorders. The needles will be placed in the hands, feet, and around the eyes.
Electro-Acupuncture
Electro-acupuncture is a procedure in which low levels of electrical current from an e-stim device are run through acupuncture needles while they are retained in the patient. Electrical currents have stimulating effects, which can influence cells, tissues and entire systems. This procedure is especially effective for certain types of painful conditions ranging from tennis elbow to treating low back and neck pain. Electro-acupuncture has been proven to promote the flow of qi and blood, relieve pain, and warm the muscles, removing blood stasis (a blockage, or poor circulation).

Other Treatment Modalities:
Cupping
This is an ancient technique that involves attaching a jar to the skin by way of a vacuum to restore micro-circulation in the capillaries. The underlying tissue is raised, or sucked, partly into the cup. This helps relieve pain and pulls toxins from the body tissue. Cupping causes the skin to turn red, blue or purple especially if there is an energetic blockage underneath which can last up to two weeks. Cupping is a great treatment for colds, flu, allergies, fever, aches and pains.
Gua Sha
This involves palpation and cutaneous stimulation where the skin is pressured in strokes by a round-edged instrument. This results in the appearance of a small petechiae called "sha" that fades within 2 or 3 days. Raising sha involves blood stagnation that is considered pathogenic, promoting normal circulation and metabolic processes. The patient will experience immediate relief from pain, stiffness, fever, chills and nausea.
Moxibustion
This is a form of Oriental herbal heat therapy using the mugwort herb called "moxa" by the Chinese. It is heated either on an acupuncture needle or placed directly on or around the skin. It is to stimulate blood flow and circulate the Qi energy in acupuncture meridians. Moxibustion therapy in conjunction with acupuncture can be very effective for many diseases and conditions including back pain, muscle stiffness, arthritis, digestive disorder and female health problems.
