This integrative session combines acupuncture with a personalized herbal medicine consultation to support your body’s natural healing process. Your appointment begins with a thorough intake to understand your health concerns, lifestyle, and goals through the lens of Traditional Chinese Medicine.

This treatment is well suited for concerns such as stress, anxiety, pain, digestive issues, hormonal imbalances, sleep disturbances, immune support, and overall wellness. Herbal recommendations are tailored specifically to you and may be adjusted over time as your body responds.

This 60-minute treatment combines traditional acupuncture with wet (blood) cupping OR fire (moving) cupping to support circulation, release muscle tension, and promote overall wellness. Wet cupping uses gentle suction and a small controlled release of blood from the skin’s surface to help draw out stagnation, while fire (moving) cupping involves gliding warmed cups across the body for deep relaxation and improved flow. Both techniques are safe, effective, and performed by a trained practitioner in a clinical setting, leaving you feeling lighter, refreshed, and balanced.
