Maintenance/ Tune Up
Regular acupuncture treatments have positive effects on health and well-being. Acupuncture works as a preventative treatment by keeping the body in balance. Dr. Qi uses additional modalities in conjunction to acupuncture to best treat the individual’s condition, such as Electrical Stimulation, Maxibustion, Cupping, Gua Sha, Auricular, Acupressure, heat therapy and Chinese herbal medicine treatments, etc. (see “Services”)
Seasonal Allergies
Acupuncture alone can bring significant relief to headache, itchy and watery eyes and running nose. A combination of acupuncture and Chinese herbs can be even more effective.
Diabetes Support
Acupuncture and Chinese herbs can offer unique, targeted treatment to individual patients to reduce diabetes-related symptoms. The treatment, which varies from patient to patient, focuses on regulating the circulation of blood and balancing the organ systems to enhance pancreatic function.
