Acupuncture – Traditional

Ultra-fine needle therapy designed to stimulate nerve pathways, boost circulation, and restore natural balance. Effective for chronic and acute pain, stress, insomnia, digestion, and systemic wellness.

Integrated Bodywork (With or Without Needles)

A hands-on alternative or complement to massage therapy, focused on relieving deep muscle tightness and restoring mobility using traditional Chinese manual techniques:

  • Tui Na: Traditional Chinese medical massage to target structural tightness.
  • Deep-Tissue Cupping: Boosts circulation and loosens stubborn muscle knots.
  • Myofascial Gua Sha: Releases restricted fascia and restores mobility.

Treatment Options:

  • With Needles: Combines targeted acupuncture needling with hands-on manual therapies for maximum therapeutic benefit.
  • Needle-Free: Utilizes acupressure alongside Tui Na, cupping, and Gua Sha for clients who are needle-hesitant or looking for a pure bodywork experience.

All integrated bodywork sessions are delivered within our registered practice and are insurable under Acupuncture coverage.

Cosmetic Acupuncture

A holistic facial rejuvenation treatment using fine needles to stimulate collagen, boost circulation, reduce fine lines, and relieve jaw tension (TMJ). May include facial cupping or Gua Sha.

How do you know what to fix?

In order to discover the root of the imbalance, Chinese medicine uses a four step procedure in examination. They are observation, listening/smelling, inquiry, and palpation. Based on the finding, the practitioner will then be able to prescribe the proper treatment to correct the imbalance.

Is acupuncture or bodywork painful?

Needling may produce mild sensations like tingling, heaviness, or pressure (de qi), but it is not painful. Bodywork, cupping, and Gua Sha are always tailored to your personal pressure preference.

Are there any side effects?

No. It is normal to feel a ‘good tiredness’ (relaxed) feeling after the session. The energy flows best when the body is not stressed out.

How do I choose between needle-based and needle-free bodywork?

If you want the combined benefits of systemic acupuncture points alongside muscle release, select the needle-based option. If you are hesitant about needles or looking specifically for physical massage-style release, the needle-free option uses acupressure, cupping, and Tui Na to deliver deep relief.

Are these treatments covered by insurance?

Payment is required at the time of service. You will receive an official receipt issued under Acupuncture Treatment (R.Ac.) to submit to your extended health provider for reimbursement. All acupuncture and integrated bodywork modalities fall under standard Acupuncture benefits.
