Treatments focus on wellness and balanced health as well as pain and symptom management. This traditional style acupuncture takes place in our communal room where you can sit in a zero-gravity chair with needles in anywhere from 30-45 minutes. Needles are primarily placed in the limbs of the body.  Incorporated treatment strategies include nutritional consulting, Chinese herbal therapy, and breathwork.
