Services We Offer

Acupuncture

An essential therapy in traditional Chinese medicine, acupuncture uses extremely fine needles placed at specific points on the body to balance energy flow, reduce inflammation, and enhance circulation. It is commonly used for back and neck pain, migraines, digestive disorders, anxiety, and more.
 

Laser Therapy (Photobiomodulation/LLLT)

This modern, noninvasive technique uses targeted wavelengths of light to stimulate cellular repair, improve tissue health, and reduce discomfort. It is particularly effective for arthritis, sports injuries, neuropathy, and chronic joint problems.
 

Magnetic Therapy

By applying carefully calibrated magnetic fields to targeted areas, this therapy helps to enhance circulation, reduce inflammation, and encourage relaxation. It’s often paired with acupuncture or laser therapy for maximum benefit.
 

Electro-Acupuncture

A specialized form of acupuncture that applies gentle electrical stimulation between needles to boost results. Especially useful for nerve pain, muscle spasms, and recovery after strokes or injuries.
 

Chinese Herbs and Supplements

Custom herbal formulations are tailored to each patient’s specific needs. These natural remedies can help improve immunity, support digestion, regulate hormones, and reduce stress while complementing other therapies.
