Acupuncture & Herbology

licensed acupuncturist & herbalist
use your body’s own intelligence to cultivate harmony and healing
Chinese Medicine is an ancient science that originated approximately 3,000 years ago. It includes a myriad of therapies such as acupuncture, herbal medicine, and cupping. Chinese medicine uses the innate intelligence of the body to redirect the body’s energy (Qi) – your human body is basically a genius who, when in optimal balance, knows exactly how to organize and sort each cell, hormone, and nerve signal to create a functioning magical being: you!
What is acupuncture?
How does acupuncture work?
An excess can be thought of as a stagnation or a “stuck-ness.” When too much stagnation is accumulated in one spot, the energy cannot flow freely. The needle in this case would be a signal to the body to move what is stuck. A deficiency, on the other hand, is a lack of Qi or nourishment in a certain spot. In this case, the needle gives a signal to the body that this is the squeaky wheel, and it needs some grease, some get-up-and-go!

Lifestyle & Herbal Consultation

Lifestyle and herbal recommendations are included in acupuncture treatments, but they can be a separate service if you are not interested in receiving acupuncture, or if you just want to dip a toe into the realm of Oriental Medicine.
