Included in all services - I do not believe in charging extra for these modalities, if you need them, we do them, you are paying for your time in the clinic and within that timeframe we will treat your chief complaint to the best of our ability. 

​

• Cupping therapy -  the touch and pressure from cupping stimulate large nerve fibers, which results in the blocking of pain signals to the brain sent by other nerves. increase blood flow while removing fluids and toxins from the area being treated. The fluids are said to have high levels of substances related to diseases.

• Gua sha - enhances blood circulation and lymphatic drainage, reduces muscle tension and promotes relaxation

• Red light therapy - Red light therapy is thought to work by acting on the “power plant” in your body’s cells called mitochondria. With more energy, other cells can do their work more efficiently, doing things like repairing skin, boosting new cell growth and enhancing skin rejuvenation. More specifically, certain cells absorb light wavelengths and are stimulated to work.

• Near and far infrared heat therapy - Produce visible light that has a wavelength of 1 to 5 microns and is used as a simple source of heat. Generates infrared energy with wavelengths from 1 to 50 microns. Accomplished by heating a proprietary ceramic disc coated with 33 different minerals that, when heated, emit the Far spectrum of infrared energy that is most easily absorbed by the human body. Near infrared promotes collagen production, enhancing circulation, improving skin texture, and pain relief. 

• Hot moist heat therapy - Promotes deep relaxation via parasympathetic and softens tight muscles quicker and deeper penetration of the patient’s tissues and a more powerful response from the body’s temperature receptors.

• Aromatherapy - When inhaled, aromatherapy stimulates your nervous system (brain, spinal cord and nerves). This means aromatherapy starts a chain reaction of signals to your brain and chemical responses throughout your body. This activity begins once you start smelling an essential oil.

• Herbal oils and liniments - I create infused oils and liniments with local and Chinese medical grade herbs to promote tissue healing, relieve tension, and decrease pain.
