Acupuncture
Acupuncture can be a daunting experience for many individuals, but it is important note that it can be a relaxing and rejuvenating form of medicine. During the initial treatment, a thorough assessment of past and present health conditions is conducted to determine the areas that require attention. The pulses are taken and a glance at the tongue. Then the insertion of (on average), 7-15 fine needles on the body is then performed, followed by a 25-30 minute relaxation period on a massage table. Throughout the process, the patient's comfort is monitored, and pulses are re-checked for any adjustments that may be needed.

Natural Medicine/BioResonance
Bio-resonance is a system of medicine distinct and separate from all other forms of medicine practiced today using electromagnetic vibrations of very low frequency, which can transmit information in the human brain, bypassing the usual senses. Of the 10 million units of information only one is recognized, the others are fixed in the subconscious. Information from the subconscious is extracted either spontaneously, or at the level of unusual, altered states of consciousness: hypnosis, dreaming or meditation. The TLC Acupuncture & Natural Medicine bio-resonance method allows the evaluation of the state of bio-energy of each organ individually.
Recognizing that the human body functions chemically, structurally, biologically, and bio-energetically; bio-resonance primarily focuses on correcting or aligning any bio-energetic imbalance in the body. It is believed that such an imbalance will lead to functional imbalances or dis-ease in the body. Bio-resonance is separate from: Naturopathy, Natural Medicine, Osteopathy, Chiropractic and Traditional Chinese Medicine.
TLC Acupuncture and Natural Medicine uses a Body Scan that combines the benefits of bio-resonance, laser acupuncture and auricular medicine. It has shown to be an effective and painless option for both adults and children.
Acupuncture for the Prenatal & Laboring Woman
The benefits of acupuncture during pregnancy has been verified by many scientific research studies. They have found that acupuncture can be a safe and worthwhile complimentary treatment during pregnancy. For pregnancy, acupuncture helps to relieve a host of symptoms, assists with labor and even aids in correcting a breech presentation.
Acupuncture & acupressure can be beneficial in many aspects of your pregnancy. For instance, when used in pre-labor to help induce, the first stage of labor for pain and ripening the cervix, the active stage of labor or if labor becomes sluggish. Acupuncture is able to naturally help with your energy level, because some women need acupuncture to boost energy and strength. Whereas some women need acupuncture to move stuck energy and some women need support calming anxiety or other issues that come up during the birthing process.
To help you experience your most optimal birth we mainly perform acupuncture, acupressure and ‘Tui Na’ massage. We also often include, electrical stimulation, ear acupuncture, ear seeds and essential oils into our treatments.

Traditional Chinese Medicine, Variable $
Traditional Chinese Medicine (TCM) originated in China over thousands of years. As a TCM practitioner, I use herbal medicine to treat and prevent health issues or as a complimentary health approach in-between treatments.

Cupping
$50 1/2 Hour
$20 Add to Acupuncture Treatment
Cupping is an ancient technique, used in many cultures, in which a special cup is applied to the skin and held in place by suction. The suction draws superficial tissue into the cup, which may either be left in place or moved along the body. Cupping brings fresh blood to the area and helps improve circulation. Traditional cupping, sometimes referred to as “fire cupping” which uses heat to create a vacuum-like suction inside of glass cups. In modern times, cups that use a small pump to create suction have been introduced.
Added Service:
Moxibustion (included as needed per practitioner discretion)
Moxibustion involves the heating of acupuncture points with smoldering mugwort herb (known as moxa). Moxibustion stimulates circulation, counteracts cold and dampness in the body, and promotes the smooth flow of blood and qi. This safe, non-invasive technique may be used alone, but it is generally used in conjunction with acupuncture treatment. I use multiple techniques to administer moxa and often suggest at-home treatment to supplement what we can do in the clinic. I love moxa … and you will too!
Sports Acupuncture
We aim to provide the best possible care for athletes by offering a comprehensive and focused treatment plan that integrates the assessment techniques of TCM and sports medicine. Our goal is to enable practitioners to effectively combine these techniques and provide the most effective care.

Added Service:
Tui Na $50
Tui na means “pushing grasping,” and is a powerful form of Chinese medical-bodywork. Based on the same Chinese medical principles as acupuncture, tui na seeks to improve the flow of qi through the meridian channels. Tui na is particularly effective for conditions involving muscles, tendons and joints, such as structural misalignment, orthopedic problems and sports injuries. It can also be used to treat internal diseases.
Added Service: TDP
TDP stands for Teding Diancibo Pu, in Chinese, which translates to “special electromagnetic spectrum” lamp which contains a mineral plate discovered in a mine in China where workers were very healthy. A TDP Lamp is utilized during treatment for very specific circulation problems in the body, which aids in muscle relief by emitting 33 essential minerals into your body. Ultimately this relieves Muscle Pain, Joint Pain, Inflammation and Soft Tissue Injuries, which is good for people with sore muscles, arthritis, bursitis, back ache, tennis elbow and joint pains.
