Acupuncture
​
In Asian medical theory electrical pathways, or meridians, are highways of communication between our bodies different systems. When there is blockage in the flow of energy, from stress, physical or emotional injury, the meridians become congested and we feel tension, pain and/or other symptoms. By removing the obstacles that impede the flow of function, a proper acupuncture treatment guides the body to repair itself.

Acupuncture is one part of a tradition within a whole person approach to medicine. There are numerous studies and thousands of years of documentation that support its' efficacy.

​Through the knowledgeable insertion of needles the body can access it’s natural ability to resist infection, achieve higher degrees of function, change the states of pain, improve physical, mental, digestive energy, and experience more fluidity in one’s emotional responses to the world.

​Herbal Support
​
Refined and documented over time, the detailed use of medicinal herbs in Asia can be traced back over 4000 years. Properly sourced, formulated and administered, herbal formulas can support your immune system, strengthen muscles and bones and stimulate the healing of damaged tissue. Herbs have been used to improve digestion, help with concentration, memory and the management of physical, emotional, and mental stress. They can also support endocrine function in situations of painful periods, irregular periods, boost fertility, and manage menopausal changes. 

Asian herbal pharmacopeia include: roots, bark, leaves, flowers, seeds, and in some instances animal products. If the body is depleted from stress, age, or certain conditions, strengthening through the proper use of tonic formulas are best to replenish reserves and build vitality. For acute conditions, like bacterial or viral infections, formulas that assist the immune system are best. 

Functional Medicine Consultations

In todays' world it has become more and more difficult to achieve and maintain optimal levels of nutrients vital for our bodies systems to thrive.

Many factors contribute to this: pesticide and herbicide use, soil nutrient depletion from overuse of crop fields, heavy metal toxicity, additional exposures to concentrated environmental toxins, and of course ingesting overly processed foods that are lacking in proper nutritional value.

Without the proper nutrients to help our systems run efficiently, they begin to break down. Compromised systems leave us more vulnerable for opportunistic infections which cause inflammation, pain and tissue damage. 

Functional Medicine lab diagnostics hone in on specific physiological and metabolic pathways in order to more accurately pin point the system that may be in distress. We can then recommend supplementation based on these findings.

Typical tests include: Gastrointestinal panels, adrenal stress index, inflammation bio markers, hormone panels and food/environmental sensitivities 

Hyperbaric Oxygen Therapy

Over the past 50 years Oxygen therapy has gained in influence with creditable research and case studies to support what it can do. Adding pressurized oxygen to the plasma suppresses the inflammation response and regenerates damaged tissue. Traumatic brain injury, neurological conditions, and other stubborn chronic inflammatory conditions including autoimmune dysregulation have been positively supported.
 
​Warm Water Therapy

​Warm water therapy sessions are a great way to help  regulate the nervous system. I specifically work with trauma recovery, the vagal circuit and creating safe spaces for woman and other minorities. Physical ailments of any kind may also be addressed. For more information about the styles that I draw from please visit my warm water therapy page.
