Moxibustion

Moxibustion involves the burning of dried mugwort (Moxa). This is a form of heat therapy that can be used in many ways. Moxa can be placed on the ends of needles to send heat to the source of pain. A Moxa Pole looks like a cigar and can be waved over the affected area. Moxa can be placed on a barrier on the skin such as salt or a slice of ginger. Acupuncture plus Moxibustion improves range of motion while reducing edema, inflammation and pain.

Facial Rejuvenation

Electrical Stimulation (E-Stem)

An Electrical Stimulation (E-Stem) Machine uses electrodes attached to needles that have been inserted in points along the body in the affected area. The E-Stem machine sends a micro- current of electrical impulses to the muscle, which helps promotes blood flow, reduces muscle tension, releases endorphins and reduces inflammation.

Cupping

When muscles are tight they trap and hold on to waste, lactic acid and dead blood cells. This prevents blood flow from entering the muscle. Cupping causes a vacuum-like suction to allow these waste materials to be brought to the surface, bringing fresh blood into the muscle to promote faster healing. As opposed to massage, which provides downward pressure on the muscles, cupping provides a back stretch to relieve tightness.
