The Best Services
Healthy Life
Acupuncture
Acupuncture uses very fine, sterile, one-time use needles to stimulate your body to heal itself. A diagnosis is determined by reading your tongue and pluses, and asking questions about the degree and type of pain you have. Points are then selected and placed on various parts of the body that will help your body heal and eliminate the pain you are in.
Cupping
Cupping is a favorite among patients with pain and sore muscles. It is a great way to get the blood flowing in areas that feel stiff, pain, and lack of movement. Cupping creates a suction that pulls old stagnant blood to the surface, allowing the body to bring in fresh new blood to the area. This stimulates the healing process and feels amazing. Muscles become more relaxed allowing a better range of movement and pain feel is eliminated. Some discoloration may appear which shows the stagnation in the tissues, this will go away naturally in a few days.
