TCM is a natural, holistic approach to health that has been practiced for thousands of years. It includes therapies such as acupuncture, moxibustion, herbal medicine, cupping, gua-sha, qi gong exercise and dietary recommendations. TCM utilizes theories rooted deeply in Chinese philosophy and culture. It focuses on harmonizing human body and the universe and promoting human body’s natural healing defense mechanism.

Most people find acupuncture to be very gentle. You may feel a tiny pinch when the needle is inserted, followed by sensations like heaviness, tingling, warmth, or a dull ache. 

Yes, the practitioner has all the required training, education, certification and licensure to deliver a safe acupuncture treatment.  We use sterile, stainless steel, single-use, disposable needles and follow strict safety and hygiene protocols. 

Cupping is a TCM therapy where suction cups are placed on the skin to increase circulation, relieve muscle tension, and promote healing. It’s commonly used for pain, tight muscles, colds, fatigue and internal disharmonies. Some mild bruising may occur and is completely normal.

Before taking any herbal medicine, please consult with your primary care physician or specialist or healthcare providing team. Herbal medicine can be very effective, but it’s important to ensure there are no interactions with your current medications or health conditions.

Every client's situation is unique, and everyone respond to acupuncture treatment differently.  The number of sessions varies depending on your condition and your body’s natural healing capacity. Some clients experience relief after one or two treatments, while chronic or complex conditions may require ongoing care. We will create a personalized treatment plan for you.

We recommend you:
• Avoid exposure to wind and coldness

• Avoid consuming cold, raw, icy foods or drinks 

• Avoid shower for minimum of 2 hours
• Rest, go to bed early and avoid any strenuous activity for the day
• Avoid alcohol or heavy meals right after the session
There will be a take home after care instruction after each session
