Acupuncture & Traditional Chinese Medicine

In Traditional Chinese Medicine (TCM), acupuncture is linked to the belief that disease is caused by disruptions to the flow of energy, or qi, in the body. Needles are inserted into specific points in the body and stimulate the "well of qi" to provide a change in the neurohormonal pathways.

We always use new and disposable needles for each treatment. To address your problem and implement positive changes, we advise you to undergo ten sessions. Western medicine has increasingly recognized acupuncture as an effective alternative or adjunct to conventional treatments for:

Cupping

Cupping therapy is an ancient form of alternative medicine in which a therapist puts special cups on your skin for a few minutes to create suction. It is used to alleviate pain, increase circulation, relieve inflammation, increase blood flow, and promote relaxation and well-being.

The color and pattern of the marks produced by cupping will depend on the level of stagnation in the therapy area. Typical colors range from a bright red to dark purple and usually last three days up to a week. Colors and patterns sometimes last longer if a person is very sick or sedentary.
