Combination Treatments

Chinese medicine is so much more than just acupuncture. I am also trained in herbal medicine, 5 element nutrition, and different types of traditional hands-on techniques. I find that these complementary therapies can enhance the effects of acupuncture, helping you get better faster, giving me the ability to address a wide range of diverse conditions. If any of them would be beneficial for your condition, I will include them with your session at no extra charge. 

My toolbox includes:
  • acupuncture: the fundamental therapy upon which all of my sessions are built
  • herbal medicine: classic Chinese herbal formulas in a convenient pill form
  • tui na: Chinese medical deep tissue massage techniques for pain
  • zhi ya: acupressure, applying manual pressure to the acupuncture points
  • chi nei tsang: massage of the internal organs that are located in the abdomen
  • ba guan: moving and stationary cupping using traditional glass fire cups
  • gua sha: specialized massage tools made of horn and jade, used with herbal oils
  • topical herbal formulas for pain: Chinese herbal preparations that help heal from the outside in
  • 5 element nutrition: classic Chinese dietary therapy that considers both your condition and constitution
