Acupuncture

Classical Chinese Medicine

Classical Chinese Medicine includes the use of the complement channels - the Sinews, Luos, Divergents, and Extraordinary Vessels - in addition to the primary channels common to all modern acupuncture. These channels keep pathology latent in the body until the capacity for latency has been lost, or until we are ready to heal. These channels allow us to access and intentionally heal inherited pathology, trauma, chronic injuries, and other seemingly intractable diseases.

Treatments include the use of:

ACUPUNCTURE

MOXIBUSTION

GUASHA

CUPPING

TUINA (CHINESE MASSAGE)

FOOD MEDICINE

CHINESE HERBS

ASTROLOGICAL INSIGHTS
