Acupuncture Treatments

Private Acupuncture Treatments:

One on one treatments with more time and privacy for Acupuncture Treatment
detailed intakes and different modalities of treatment
including Moxibustion, Tui Na [Chinese Massage],
Gua Sha, and Cupping. Private Acupuncture Treatments
also allow time for herbal formulas to be prescribed.
Additionally, because of the extra privacy, points
on the back, chest, and abdomen are used. Private
Acupuncture Treatments are also offered in combination with
30 minutes of Tui Na [Chinese Massage].


Group Acupuncture Treatments: 

Acupuncture done in a group setting while patients
relax in reclining chairs. It is not necessary to gather a
group of patients, simply make an appointment for yourself
and realize that others may come and go during your time in
the group clinic. Less time is spent on the intake
and only points on the arms, legs, head, and ear are used.
Since there are other patients in the same room it is
possible for others to hear some of your information. Due to time
constraints, only acupuncture is utilized in these treatments. Herbal
Medicine and other treatment modalities are only utilized 
in Private Acupuncture Treatments.




Herbal Medicine


Herbal Consultation:   

A thorough intake and interview will be performed so that an
appropriate herbal formula can be prescribed. If a patent
[pre-made pills of compressed herbs] is deemed appropriate
then it will be dispensed at the time of the appointment if
it is in stock. If a more personalized bulk [raw herbs] or
granule [pre-processed powdered herbs] formula is written
it will be ordered and available for pickup within a couple
of days.








Tui Na Massage Treatment

    Tui Na [Chinese Massage]:

    A service provided as a part of Private Acupuncture
    Treatments [shorter duration] or as a separate 30 minute
    or one hour Tui Na Treatments. Tui Na uses a variety
    of manual manipulation and massage techniques to
    harmonize the body and allow it to heal itself.
    It is also good for general relaxation of muscle tension
    and stress but is usually more focused on a specific imbalance
    in the body. All Tui Na Treatments are given in a private setting.
