Acupuncture is one of the oldest, most commonly used forms of medicine in the world. Originating in China more than 2,500 years ago, acupuncture is currently one of the most thoroughly researched, practiced, and respected forms of complementary medicine available anywhere.
According to Traditional Chinese Medicine, your overall health is determined by the quality of the Qi (energy) flow through the natural pathways of your body (meridians). Acupuncture uses a variety of techniques, including placing very thin sterile needles into specific points on the body, to stimulate and improve your Qi flow. The many benefits of acupuncture include:
- Pain reduction
- Stress and tension relief
- Increased energy levels
- Stronger digestion
- Relief from bad habits and addictions
- Greater sense of overall health and well-being
- spiritual wellness
- emotional balance
- help with moving forward
Five Element Acupuncture
Five Element Acupuncture is a form of acupuncture for body, mind and spirit. It is the classical approach to acupuncture where each point is treated with deep reverence and understanding. In five element acupuncture, you are diagnosed on one element--fire, earth, metal, water or wood. In doing so, we find the most powerful approach to your overall wellbeing on all levels. The effects of being treated on your element extend far into your life, and the more treatment you receive the further we go in that exploration. Five element acupuncture is best for trauma, emotional conditions, chronic illness, chronic pain, and for generally feeling more like yourself.

Cupping with Deep Tissue
Cupping has been a part of Chinese Medicine for over 2,500 years. It relieves aches and pains, improves circulation, and also helps with respiratory and digestive issues. I simply place a specialized "cup" onto specific points on your body, and then use suction to draw your skin up into the cups. It doesn't hurt — it simply draws fresh blood to that area of your body, which facilitates the cleansing and strengthening of your Qi (energy). The end result is a greater overall sense of health and well-being.
Children are highly responsive to simple treatments, and I don't often need to use needles. Treating children on 2-3 points with mona or with acupressure can easily bring about the desired changes. I also offer herbal support, and 5 element diagnosis.
