Therapies Detail

Why holistic healing works!

  • Acupuncture and Herbal Medicine are based on holistic theory.

  • Addresses a person’s constitutional pattern of disharmony.

  • Not just chasing symptoms

  • The science shows as the needles puncture the skin, they create microtraumas.

  • These tiny punctures stimulate your lymphatic and circulatory systems.

  • Nutrients and oxygen are delivered to your cells necessary for better health from the inside out.

Mei Zen Acupuncture

Acupuncture Neuromodulation

Fascia Release

Tui-Na Manual Therapy

Many problems of the abdominal region are from adhesions and fibrotic tissue.

  • Adhesions are bands of scar tissue that form in response to imbalanced hormones, neurogenic inflammatory chemicals, infection, radiation, surgery, or trauma.

  • Scar tissue may form again after surgery meant to remove it.

  • Adhesive sticky fluids create narrowing of spaces, blockages, causing structures, tissues, and organs to stick together.

Tuning Fork Acupuncture

Sound Healing

  • The sound healing frequencies along with using pressure

  • Release and reposition tissues and arteries,

  • “Flush” out debris and toxins from the aorta and major pulses of the abdomen, organs, and extremities.

  • Release pressurized fluids across a cell membrane, and fascial adhesions of trigger points.

  • Reducing our, “fight or flight” sympathetic tone, that keeps us feeling stressed, anxious, and out of sorts. 

Dolphin Neurostim™ and Microcurrent Point Stimulation (MPS) Therapy

  • Provides effective relief from acute or chronic pain of soft tissues, stress, anxiety, cellular healing, as well as scar tissue release.

  • Through research and experience the Dolphin Neurostim™ was developed based on ancient Chinese Acupuncture Medicine and Modern Western science.

My approach prioritizes a safe, respectful, and comfortable environment tailored to your unique needs.
