Steps to Healthy Balance

Treatment Methods

Traditional Oriental Medicine sees you as a total being, not just a set of symptoms.

Diagnosis

Traditional Oriental Medicine sees you as a total being, not just a set of symptoms. Your body and spirit, environment, living habits, diet, emotions, and many other factors are assessed to determine the patterns of imbalance.

The Meridian System

Your Meridian System is a network of interconnecting pathways that circulates vital energy throughout your entire body. When you are healthy and in balance, this energy flow is properly regulated and circulates continuously and smoothly.

Acupuncture

Special needles inserted at acupuncture points along the meridians adjust their energy flow. By regulating the meridians, your body is brought back towards a state of balance. This helps to unleash your innate natural healing power.

Moxibustion

Moxibustion enhances the effects of acupuncture treatment. Moxa comes from the leaf of the Asian Mugwort plant and helps treat the meridians when it is burned on various acupuncture points.

Shiatsu Massage

Shiatsu is a traditional Japanese form of massage based on the same meridian system as acupuncture, but instead of using needles, the hands and thumbs are used to apply pressure at points along the meridians.

Children’s Acupuncture

Shonishin is a specialized form of acupuncture that treats infants and young children. It has been in use since its development in Japan approximately 400 years ago.
