For new or return patients.
This treatment combines body acupuncture with facial Gua sha techniques.
Gua sha helps increase circulation and lymphatic flow in the face, reducing puffiness, easing jaw and facial muscle tension, and enhancing tone and brightness. Body acupuncture works synergistically by regulating the nervous system, improving microcirculation, and supporting digestion, stress response, and hormonal balance - all factors that can influence the skin.
From a Traditional Chinese Medicine perspective, this approach nourishes qi and blood, addresses internal contributors to skin concerns, and promotes a calm, refreshed, and revitalized appearance.
This session also includes facial cleansing, high quality facial oils and hot towel application.
Most of the appointment is spent mapping out whatâs going on in your body and choosing points, then resting with fine needles in place for a stretch â sometimes with heat, cups or electrical stimulation â and you leave with a sense of what was treated and whether more sessions make sense.
