About Chinese Medicine 

Cupping increases circulation, opens pores, and releases toxins in the area being cupped while allowing new blood and nutrients into the musculature. Cupping creates what’s called a micro trauma (a tiny injury) that gives your body the message to heal. Cupping can be used for a wide range of conditions but is most frequently used for pain & respiratory conditions.

Gua sha (gwa-shah) is an Ancient Chinese form of massage that uses a tool to scrape the skin to increase blood circulation, move water, and drain lymphatic fluid to help promote healing, decrease inflammation, and diminish pain.Gua sha is usually performed with an Asian soupspoon.

Tui Na (pronounced twee-nah) is a form of ancient Chinese massage. Practitioners apply techniques such as rubbing, pressing, rolling, kneading, brushing, shaking, and tapotement between joints and musculature to impact acute and chronic musculoskeletal problems.

Chinese Herbal Medicine uses herbs to improve health & can be used for a wide range of conditions. The difference between Western pharmaceuticals & traditional Chinese herbalism is that herbalists don’t treat symptoms or diseases. Herbal medicine treats the entire body both the mental & physical aspects, with a focus on the main disease state.
