Services
Acupuncture
Our acupuncture treatments use traditional Chinese techniques to address chronic pain, migraines, and systemic conditions. Practitioners employ free-hand needle insertion for precise placement, targeting both symptoms and underlying imbalances. With over 20 years of experience, our certified acupuncturists create customized treatment plans that integrate with other modalities for comprehensive care.
SCENAR Therapy
This advanced therapy utilizes Russian-developed SCENAR devices originally designed for space medicine. The technology stimulates the body's self-healing mechanisms through biofeedback, particularly effective for musculoskeletal injuries and chronic pain management. Combined with acupuncture point stimulation, it enhances treatment outcomes for complex conditions.
Herbal Medicine
Custom herbal formulations complement our acupuncture treatments, using time-tested Chinese medicinal preparations. Our practitioners, trained through four-year apprenticeships, create personalized herbal protocols to address digestive issues, respiratory conditions, and hormonal imbalances. These natural remedies work synergistically with other therapies for lasting results.
Tai Chi Instruction
Private Tai Chi instruction integrates movement therapy with wellness practices. Originally studied under Chinese masters, these sessions improve balance, reduce stress, and enhance physical rehabilitation. The practice complements our alternative medicine approach, particularly for musculoskeletal recovery and preventive care.
Pilates Training
Personalized Pilates instruction on original equipment enhances physical therapy outcomes. Certified instructors use classical methods learned from Joseph Pilates' protg to improve core strength, posture, and mobility. This modality particularly benefits patients recovering from injuries or seeking enhanced physical wellness.
