Services
Acupuncture
Our acupuncture treatments use single-use, pre-sterilized needles to stimulate the body's natural healing processes. Sessions typically last one hour, with initial consultations requiring 90 minutes for comprehensive health assessment. This drug-free therapy effectively addresses chronic pain, stress disorders, and various systemic conditions by restoring Qi flow through meridian pathways.
Chinese Herbal Medicine
Customized herbal formulations address individual health needs using time-tested combinations of medicinal plants. We offer traditional loose herbs for maximum potency, as well as convenient pill and powder forms. Our herbal therapy complements acupuncture treatments and supports long-term wellness through internal balance and systemic support.
Infertility Treatment
Specialized TCM protocols enhance reproductive health for both men and women. Combining acupuncture, herbal medicine, and lifestyle modifications, our fertility program supports natural conception and complements assisted reproductive technologies like IVF. Treatments focus on hormonal balance, uterine health, and sperm quality improvement.
Cupping Therapy
This ancient technique uses controlled suction to improve circulation, relieve muscle tension, and promote detoxification. Cupping effectively treats chronic pain conditions, sports injuries, and respiratory disorders by stimulating blood flow and Qi movement in affected areas.
Tui Na Massage
A therapeutic form of Chinese medical massage that manipulates Qi flow through deep-tissue techniques. Tui Na addresses musculoskeletal issues, stress-related disorders, and internal imbalances by stimulating acupoints and meridian pathways without needles.
