Acupuncture works with the natural vital energies (qi) of the body. It enhances the body's recuperative power and immunity in order to promote its ability to heal itself.

In your initial session we will determine your particular needs. Your medical history is reviewed and there is discussion of what may be achieved through your course of treament. Treatment frequency is determined on an individual basis, as each patient has different needs.

Chi Nei Tsang is a Taoist form of abdominal massage based upon the ancient five tranformations of qi/chi theory that is the heart of East Asian traditional medicine. By freeing the abdomen of tension, constraint, and congestion of fluids and gas, the qi (bioenergy) moves properly in the organ system. Chi Nei Tsang releases core level stress from the abdomen first and then assists the qi to move through the body to help it self-heal. ​

Reiki brings the body-mind-spirit into balance. It provides the inner harmony necessary for a person to heal in whatever way is needed.
