Acupuncture and Traditional Chinese Medicine
Acupuncture is a refined art, using ultra-thin needles to awaken the body’s innate healing response. With each placement, circulation surges, neurotransmitters release, and the nervous system restores balance, leaving you deeply relaxed yet revitalized.
For centuries, precise points have been mapped, revealing pathways that connect the body in profound ways. This holistic approach harmonizes muscles, organs, and energy flow, addressing concerns far beyond the needle’s touch. Herbal therapies are used as a supplement to this initiation of flowing circulation and when used appropriately in combination can provide profound effects on not only the physical body, but our emotions, and our nervous system’s resilience against stressors.

Cupping is the act of using heat within a glass cup and placing it on the skin to create suction. If there are weak capillaries in the area, this suction will break them. The purpose of this is for the body to create ones and in doing so more blood flow is able to get to this area to deliver oxygen and healing agents. Over time the marks from cupping will get less. It’s important to note that there will temporarily be marks and be mindful of booking if you prefer to not have marks showing for any reason. This can be added to a follow-up acupuncture appointment or massage therapy. Add-On $40/Solo Service

Manual Therapy
The manual therapy I provide goes beyond a standard oil massage. My approach is centered on truly listening, to both your words and your body's signals. After our initial consultation, my focus is on understanding what your body needs and applying my skills to promote healing where it's needed most. You'll experience deep relaxation while I work to release tension and gather insights to support your overall well-being.
