Find Relief & Restore Balance
We're here to help improve your well-being, because you want to thrive, right?! At our first consult, we will clarify the type of treatment that will be best for your needs. This may include Chinese herbal medicine, acupuncture, gua sha, cupping, micro-needling, or a combination of all of these.
What To Expect
Our first consultation is designed to get to know you. We ask very detailed questions about your daily routines, including your diet, digestion, elimination, sleep patterns, exercise/movement practices, medications and supplements, and how you manage stress and pain. We feel your pulses and look at your tongue, then recommend a treatment plan designed for you. As you proceed through your phases of care, we address your concerns, track your progress, and provide a continuum of care. Our initial consult is just 30 minutes, and acupuncture visits are 50-60 minutes.

Herbal Medicine
Chinese herbal medicine consists of custom tea blends made from time-tested ingredients in pharmaceutical-grade, convenient powdered form which is easily consumed on the go, 2-3 times per day.
Chinese herbal medicine is the heart of Chinese medicine and many of the plant and mineral-based formulas we use have been in use for centuries. If you are coming to our clinic for any type of health challenge with symptoms like digestive disorders, insomnia, anxiety, depression or other “internal medicine” conditions, Chinese herbal medicine will be a big part of your treatment plan. Learning Chinese herbal medicine requires years to complete and our herb suppliers go through rigorous Good Manufacturing Practices (GMP) and are tested for purity and proper identification per FDA standards. Chinese herbal medicine is extremely safe and effective when used under the direction of a licensed professional.
Your practitioner will discuss dietary restrictions you may have as well as any medication you are taking prior to providing your herbal formula. It is amazing how powerful Chinese herbs can be at helping you reach your health goals.
