Acupuncture is an ancient form of Traditional Chinese Medicine. It involves the insertion of fine sterile disposable needles into selected acupuncture points of the body. These points are located along channels of energy, called meridians, which run through the body and over its surface. Meridians are like rivers flowing through the body to irrigate and nourish the tissues. An obstruction in the movement of these rivers is like a dam that backs up into others causing symptoms, pain and disease.
Acupuncture Points
Acupuncture Points
Acupuncture points are located on areas of the skin that have a lower resistance to the passage of electricity than surrounding tissue and they make up a complete network system similar to the nervous system.
Acupuncture is used to promote the body's natural healing, improve mood and energy, reduce or relieve pain and improve function of affected areas of the body. Acupuncture is a safe and effective therapy and can give relief when traditional medical therapy has failed.
Acupuncture Needles
Acupuncture Needles
Acupuncture needles are very fine, flexible and sharp at the tip. They are very different from a hypodermic needle (these are used for injections, etc) as they do not have a cutting edge which slices through tissue. Acupuncture needles are designed to glide through tissues and makes them unlikely to cause bleeding or damage to underlying structures.

An ancient practice that is used to treat several disorders. Cupping draws up old stagnant blood from the area to allow healthy free circulation, introduces healing properties, and restores oxygen to the affected area. This can leave bruising-like marks and it is these different colours and patterns that give the Acupuncturist an idea of what is occurring within the body.

Lymphatic drainage is a technique designed to stimulate the flow of lymph (a fluid that transports white blood cells, oxygen, and nutrients to tissues throughout the body). Also referred to as "manual lymph drainage" or "lymphatic massage", lymphatic drainage typically involves gentle, circular movements. Since the lymph system serves as a central part of the immune system, proponents of lymphatic drainage suggest that this technique can help treat a variety of health concerns.

Craniosacral therapy is a noninvasive, light touch modality that works along the Central Nervous System to relax deep tensions, pain, and dysfunction within the body. It relieves compression in the bones of the head, sacrum and spinal column. It may be able to provide relief for certain conditions and has strong evidence for supporting treatment for conditions like headaches. It may be a preferable option over prescription medications, since it has a low risk for side effects. Suitable for all ages!
Reflexology is based on reflex points found in the feet, hands, face and ears that relate directly to specific body systems, organs and glands. By using firm massage techniques, these reflex points can be stimulated to assist in healing the relating organs and glands. It allows blocked energy flow to be rebalanced and returns homeostasis within the body. Hand, foot, ear, and facial reflexology are the areas of the body where most of the work is performed.

Reiki originates from Japan. The word "Reiki" means universal life force energy and it is Sensei Mikao Usui who began to teach this system. It works with the chakra system and will affect each person differently, but it always acts wherever the receiver needs it most. The body holds wisdom to heal itself and Reiki goes to the root cause of discomfort in the body to begin healing. It will work on all levels of mind, body, spirit, and emotions, and it provides deep relaxation, peace, and a sense of well being. Reiki is a pleasant holistic health modality that will revitalize the body, mind, and soul.
