Traditional Acupuncture Session - $115

Acupuncture can help with a variety of health issues, including: back pain, menopausal symptoms, stress management and digestive issues.
After a thorough intake interview and diagnostic assessment (pulse, tongue), a point prescription is developed, and an individual treatment strategy is created.
This treatment usually includes a front and back treatment and may include additional acupuncture techniques such as moxibustion, cupping.
Cupping invigorates local circulation of qi and blood in the area being treated, resolving swelling, pain, and tension. Drawing impurities to the surface, it removes toxins. From a Western physiology perspective, cupping loosens connective tissue or fascia and stimulates blood flow to the deeper tissue.
The marks that occur during cupping can last between three to seven days, depending on the patient's physical activity, the amount of toxins released during the session, and how much water the patient drinks afterward. The discoloration ranges from a deep purple to a dark red.
