Why Our Unique Treatment Works So Well...
Picture
We address the root cause
​
We are experts at discovering the ROOT CAUSE of your issue, not just masking the symptoms. Our treatments will help you get rid of your discomfort and help manage your emotions.
Picture
We customize the treatment to you​
​

All of us are unique. Therefore, to assume that treatment should be the same for everyone does not serve you. Your condition is personal, so your treatment needs to be as well.
Picture
Integrative Focus​
We know how to work with people who are concurrently taking medications and doing psychotherapy. We know we may not have everything you need, and we know how to help you maximize your other therapies without getting in the way.
Picture
We don't have an agenda​
We never tell people to stop taking their medications, nor do we shame people for it. We will work with you on whatever level you are comfortable with to safely and effectively get the results you want. No judgment or pressure here.

Patient Testimonials

"You have performed magic! I feel incredible. I'm sleeping deeper, I feel calm and more balanced. Ive finally got down the vitamin times as of yesterday. I'm also taking more yin yoga classes. I cannot thank you enough! ♥️♥️♥️"

"Well, your wizardry knows no bounds it seems.  I feel A LOT better today.  My feel much more calm (more like myself) than I did yesterday (or for many, many days prior), I got a full night of sleep (amazing!), and this morning, I generally feel the least irritated than I have in weeks.  The world thanks you for that last one the most , but I appreciate it all."

"You're the best body healer I've ever encountered!"

"...I am so happy you’re there to help heal us. So grateful we have a trusted healer in our lives - no one else can do what you do, so please keep doing it!"

"My back is so much better! That treatment was incredible. I don’t know what you did, because it was a little weird, but it worked!"
​
"...just remember that you were chosen to do what you do and spread the message you’re spreading...You’re a hell of a healer."

​"I’ve gotten other massage treatments, but I hold yours as the standard."
"Ryan has no headache today n feels very clear. He's a believer! I'll book him for sat next week. Thanks so much! Only took 7 years for him to go"

"I just wanted to tell you what a gifted healer you are. I'm stretching and I was thinking how you always give my body the push to recalibrate itself. I was in so much pain last time. After a couple days of different pain it seems like my body kind of healed itself."

"I just wanted to say thanks . I felt markedly improved last evening and I slept better than I have in months."

"Hey...I'm so grateful. This is the best my foot has felt in weeks and weeks. Wow! I'll do my 'homework' and see you soon. Again, Happy Thanksgiving...and THANK YOU!"

Here's How Our Unique Combination of FOUR Very Potent, Time-Tested 100% Natural Therapies Work To Bring The Body To Heal Itself
(And YOU get to choose which therapies you would like to incorporate.)
Picture
Gentle, Painless Acupuncture​
Acupuncture is one of the most powerful ways to naturally stimulate your body’s internal healing process. Then, it gets right to work repairing and restoring all cells and tissues. Acupuncture harnesses the vast healing intelligence your body contains to help you heal faster.​
Picture
Herbal Medicine​
Herbs simultaneously cure AND strengthen the body. This dual action is something unique to herbal medicine that makes it very well suited to treat chronic and non-life threatening conditions like migraine, PMS, menstrual difficulties, menopausal symptoms, hormonal imbalance, and reproductive issues.
Picture
Functional Nutritional Therapy
We know how to work with people who are concurrently taking medications and doing psychotherapy. We know we may not have everything you need, and we know how to help you maximize your other therapies without getting in the way.
Picture
Relaxation and Stress-Reduction
When your nervous system is calm, your hormonal system, immune system, digestive, and circulatory systems all calm down, too. This means more hormonal balance, less inflammation, better circulation and nutrient absorption.​

Our Process

Picture

STEP ONE:  Compile a Clear and Detailed Root Cause Assessment
We will take a detailed history, review any other data you have received about your current experience and condition, and listen to all your overall symptoms to get to the root cause of your condition. 

STEP TWO:  A Customized and Specific Plan of Action
The next step is to create a customized and very specific plan that takes all guesswork out of your self-care and the treatment strategy we will use...without drugs, surgery, or long-term commitments.
This includes weekly acupuncture treatments, key supplements, herbal formulas, and simple dietary changes.

STEP THREE:  Weekly Treatments to Adjust the Neuromuscular System
We’ll begin weekly treatment sessions with the goal of getting your hormonal, nervous, and immune systems to a consistent, vital level. 

STEP FOUR:  Ongoing Assessment and Monitoring of Your Pain and Range of Motion
We will follow up at regular intervals to ensure progress is measurable: that your general outlook is improved, while ensuring the results last.

STEP FIVE (optional):  Occasional Maintenance If Needed
If needed, we can schedule occasional visits to ensure results are permanent.

Common Questions

What is the treatment?
We use a combination of acupuncture, pharmaceutical grade supplements, and classic Chinese herbal formulas to address the different systems of your body. Sometimes, we also add focused massage techniques and bodywork to increase the efficacy, if needed.

How long does it take?
Hard to answer as everyone is different, however if the case is typical, it usually takes between 2-3 months. 

I already had surgery to address my problem, will it still work?
For sure. We can still have a profound effect on your challenge, regardless of any surgeries, structural deformities, or permanent injuries. Each case will be different. 

​
What can you do to help me from experiencing the fullness of this discomfort again?
A part of our work together will be to give you specific maintenance actions that you can do on your own to help manage your experience. All are relatively simple techniques that are super-effective. It will take a little bit of work on your part, but you should be happy with the results.
Do I have to follow a specific diet, or do I have to start meditating?
Only if you want to. We make small suggestions you can take to help increase the speed of recovery. Many of these suggestions have the potential to make a profound effect. But it is not a requirement.

Will the herbs and supplements interact with my current medications?
We are aware of how these will interact with all aspects of your condition, and all considerations will be taken into account. In many cases, our herbal therapies can actually work together, and you may be able to modify your current medication with your medical doctor after working with us, if that is important to you. We will work with regardless - the choice is yours.

Will it work?
We will not lie, require up-front commitments, or just saying anything to get you in. The bottom line is your case is unique. We promise to give you our opinion, based upon experience, and let you decide from there what you want to do from there.
Your initial consultation is free. Come meet us in person and learn more.
