TCM | Acupuncture
Traditional Chinese Medicine (TCM) is Energy Medicine. The term "Qi"- energy refers to the vital life force. In TCM, we use a wide range of healing modalities to diagnose and treat illness. We believe that the main cause of illness and disease are caused by blockages in the mind and body. By manipulating and redirecting the “Qi” that pulses through the cells of our bodies, we undo the blockages and restore balance.
Initial Consultation + Treatment
Initial consultation is required prior to discussing a treatment plan. Taking time for careful evaluation is valuable getting an overall view of each patient’s case, and provide insights on any underlying issues, be it physical or otherwise. Suggestions for treatment could include diet and lifestyle changes.
Acupuncture Treatment
Acupuncture works directly with the meridians/channels in your body.
By removing the blockages in the meridians, we encourage the flow of
Qi and blood, which helps bring nourishment to areas of pain/disease, and ease the problem.

Cupping is often used as part of the treatment.
Cupping Therapy
Cupping is a method of physical treatment that involves utilizing special cups on the skin to create a suction. It increases blood circulation to the area where the cups are placed. This may relieve muscle tension, which can improve overall blood flow and promote cell repair.
