Acupuncture & Traditional
Chinese Medicine

Restoring balance in body, mind, and spirit.
Through acupuncture, herbs, cupping, moxibustion, and lifestyle guidance, we support your body’s natural healing. Tongue and pulse diagnosis reveal root imbalances, helping relieve pain, boost energy, and restore harmony.

Methods we use

Classical diagnostics to treat the individual, not the symptom list.

A specialized, palpation-based system that blends classical Chinese medical principles with modern pathophysiology

A highly structured and results-driven acupuncture system renowned for its ability to produce immediate clinical effects, particularly for pain management.

Auricular Acupuncture uses the ear as a “micro-map” of the entire body to regulate the nervous system and address addiction or pain. Scalp (or Neuro) Acupuncture targets specialized regions on the head to directly influence brain function and central nervous system disorders

Moxibustion, or “Moxa,” involves burning dried Mugwort (Artemisia vulgaris) near the skin to apply penetrating heat to specific acupoints.
Cupping uses glass, plastic, or silicone cups to create a vacuum that pulls the skin and superficial muscle layers upward.
Gua Sha involves the repeated scraping of lubricated skin with a smooth-edged tool (typically jade, stone, or a ceramic spoon) to stimulate microcirculation

Personalized herbal prescriptions designed by a practitioner to address an individual’s unique health patterns and constitution. Rather than using pre-made “patent” medicines, these formulas are precisely blended using specific herbs and dosages to restore balance to the whole body
Use of dietary patterns and specific nutrients to support the body’s natural systems for neutralizing and eliminating toxins. While the body “detoxes” naturally every day via the liver, kidneys, and gut, specialized nutritional approaches aim to optimize these biochemical pathways

A form of alternative medicine based on the “law of similars”, the idea that a substance causing symptoms in a healthy person can, in minute doses, trigger the body’s natural healing response to similar symptoms.

Your Treatment Experience

01

Pattern reading

I observe the tongue, feel the pulse, and gently palpate channels. In clinical terms, I’m assessing a pattern of imbalance or blockage of meridians.

02

First needles
(Japanese-style · Balance Method)

Feather-light, highly precise points, often away from the painful area, invite rapid change in the channels of energy . Sensation is usually a soft bloom or nothing at all.

03

Nervous-system support (Auricular · Scalp/Neuro)

Ear and scalp points help modulate pain pathways and focus, supporting deeper calm sensation and calm the mind.

04

Warmth & movement (Moxibustion · Cupping · Gua Sha)

As indicated: moxa to nourish and move cold, cupping to lift heaviness from tight fascia, gua sha to melt adhesions and help lymph flow and circulation of the blood and Qi.

05

Herbal & homeopathic guidance

If your pattern calls for it, we’ll choose a custom TCM formula and discuss gentle homeopathic support, always optional, always tailored.

Who this helps

(real people, real seasons)

Athletes & movers
seeking recovery as intentional as training

“By the third visit my shoulder stopped guarding; sleep returned, and mornings felt like mine again.”

Your Care, Made Simple

Step 1 Listen

Warm conversation, pulse/ tongue reading, and palpation along meridians and myofascial lines to understand your unique pattern.

Step 2 Treat

Precise, gentle needling on a warm table. When helpful, I add moxa (herbal warmth), cupping (decompression), or gua sha (slow fascial glide). Many guests drift into an “acu-nap.”

Step 3 Plan

Clear visit cadence, tiny at-home practices, and herbal or homeopathic supports (when appropriate) so progress holds between sessions.

Single-use sterile needles. Your comfort and consent guide everything.

How you may feel

session by session

Visit 1–2

A warm settling; less guarding; many sleep deeply the first night.

Weeks 2–4

Pain patterns quiet; range and energy steady; evenings feel gentler.

Series & maintenance

Relief holds longer; your baseline shifts toward ease and resilience.

(Timelines vary; we’ll adjust as you change.)

YOUR PART

(simple, kind, doable)

Warm water or tea after your session.

A short walk or gentle mobility to seal the work.

Keep the evening unhurried if we did deeper work; warmth is a friend.

Begin your ear-seed or breath ritual tonight if we set one.

Gentle FAQs

Does it hurt?

Most points feel like a whisper or a dull, warm bloom. We go at your pace.

The practitioner will Assess the treatment

Yes, cupping, moxa, and gua sha can be combined in a single treatment session. In Traditional Chinese Medicine (TCM), these modalities are often used together to create a synergistic effect, as they share similar principles of freeing stagnant energy (Qi) and promoting blood circulation.
Yes, the Practitioner frequently coordinate with your MD, physical therapist, and other specialists. This collaborative approach is a hallmark of “integrative medicine,” where different providers work together to ensure your treatments are safe, synergistic, and aligned with your overall health goals.
