Acupuncture is a form of integrative medicine developed in China over 5,000 years ago. Some of the core foundational roots are yin and Yang theory, 5 element theory and the theory of Qi. Though there are more scientific theories of Chinese Medicine, these three for the most part represent the core of how we diagnose and correct imbalances within the body. The method in which we correct these imbalances varies from the use of herbal formulas, acupuncture needles, food therapy, Tai-Chi and Qigong, tarot and Feng Shui.

Deep Tissue Massage is a form of bodywork that aims to relieve tension in the deeper layers of tissue in the body. Deep Tissue Massage is a highly effective method for releasing chronic stress areas due to misalignment, repetitive motions, and past lingering injuries. Due to the nature of the deep tissue work, open communication during the session is crucial to make sure you don't get too uncomfortable. Keep in mind that soreness is pretty common after the treatment, and that plenty of water should be ingested to aid with the flushing and removal of toxins that will have been released from the deep tissue during the session.

Tui-Na is a hands-on body treatment that uses Chinese Daoist principles in an effort to bring the eight principles of traditional Chinese medicine into balance. The practitioner may brush, knead, roll, press, and rub the areas between each of the joints, known as the eight gates, to attempt to open the body's defensive chi (wei qi) and get the energy moving in the meridians and the muscles. Techniques may be gentle or quite firm. The name comes from two of the actions: tui means "to push" and na means "to lift and squeeze." Other strokes include shaking and tapotement.
