Acupuncture

      It is a technique using small, sterile, stainless needles inserted at specific points in the body, causing a positive response in order to correct various ailments. Only disposable needles are used. The location of the application of the needles and the depth of the needle insertion is determined by the nature of the problem. the application of these needles may be accompanied by a brief painful sensation, and that there is a slight possibility of minor swelling, bleeding, discoloration of the skin, hematoma, a bruise at the needling site or fainting. Momentary euphoria or lightheadedness may occur after acupuncture treatment. The attending acupuncturist can easily handle any immediately reported problems that arise from the acupuncture treatment, and the possibility of minor problems need not be a cause of concern. Some very rare risks of acupuncture include pneumothorax and infection.  ​

Chinese Herbs

      The substances from the Oriental Materia Medica may be recommended to treat bodily dysfunction or diseases, to modify or prevent pain perception, and to normalize the body’s physiological functions. Herbs are used to facilitate the body’s own restorative process. The herbs are usually taken in tea form by boiling dried plants in their natural form or reducing to granules. Chinese herbal teas tend to taste bitter because they are made mostly from roots and barks.

 

Cupping

      It uses round vacuum cups over a large muscular area, such as the back, to enhance blood circulation to the designated area. This method may produce a deep redness, discoloration and on rare occasions, a minor blister which may persist for up to a week. These marks may resolve on their own and are not indications of complications or injuries.

 

Acupressure

      Acupressure is a way to modify or prevent pain perception and to normalize the body’s physiological functions.
