Balance Method
One Acupuncture method we utilize is Dr. Tan’s balance method. This method, created by Dr. Richard Tan, utilizes knowledge from various different styles of several masters. The system is rooted in the ancient classics of Acupuncture, the Nei Jing, and based on the concept of healing the body by balancing meridians. It is a style of acupuncture known for its instant results. [1]
Electrical Stimulation
We use E-stim in most of our Acupuncture sessions. This can achieve dramatic results in reducing pain very rapidly; sometimes in as little as one session.
Auricular Therapy for Addiction Recovery
We use auricular therapy for smoking cessation, drug and alcohol withdrawal, overeating and other types of unwanted behaviors. Very small needles are placed in various spots on the ear. This is combined with the appropriate herbal formulation and sometimes body acupuncture to help the body cope with the stress, discomfort and craving of withdrawal.
Cupping
We have a large array of cupping devices, from fire cupping to suction cupping.
Long Covid
Traditional Chinese Medicine (TCM) and Acupuncture have a track record of helping alleviate long Covid symptoms. Some symptoms that Herbs and Acupuncture help with are:
- fatigue
- body aches and pains
- headaches
- shortness of breath
- poor memory
- wheezing/reduced lung capacity
- frequent drowsiness
- rapid heart rate
- vision changes
- ringing in the ears
TCM was/is used extensively in mainland China very successfully during the outbreak and after acute illness. Herbs have also been used to boost the immune system.
Red Light Low Level Laser Therapy
We utilize this on specific points or areas of pain. This can be used with ear acupuncture or body acupuncture or as a stand alone therapy.
Healy/Rife type Therapy
We use frequency therapy for aid in detoxing the body from bacteria and viruses. This is also used to adjust the body’s energetic balance.
Nutrition/Supplements
We offer guidance for nutritional and vitamin/mineral supplementation either for heavy metal detox or to aid the body in the healing process
Hypnotherapy/Guided Meditation
As a separate therapy with a different pricing structure, we offer hypnosis, guided meditation and the teaching of self-hypnosis with meditation.
