Acupuncture

Acupuncture techniques target the deepest layers of the body through an intricate system of channels and network vessels.  It is utilized to restore balance of energy, blood, fluids as well as eliminate obstructions.  Hair thin needles are inserted into the skin surface at particular empirically derived points.  Each point is associated with specific physiological organs, meridians, patterns and functions.  ​
​​​​
Acupuncture related modalities may include Electrostimulation, Moxibustion, Infrared Heat Therapy, Cupping, Gua Sha, Acupressure, Tui Na, Qi Gong, Tai Chi,  Lifestyle & Dietary Counseling.
​
Herbal Medicine​


Traditional Oriental Medicine is rooted in thousands of years of documented Eastern Medical practice.  Herbal remedies are carefully composed of a very particular balance of individual herbs which are combined in a manner specific to an individual's pattern and condition.  Patients can expect their formulas to be re-evaluated on an ongoing basis for modification as patterns and conditions change. 
​
Psychotherapy​

Individual, Group, Couple and/or Family Psychotherapy is offered for a broad range of Emotional, Behavioral, Physical conditions and/or Phase of Life issues.  Treatment will incorporate Psychodynamic, Cognitive-Behavioral, and Mind Body focused techniques depending on individual needs.  Emphasis is placed on achieving and maintaining optimum Psycho-physiological balance.
​
Bio/Neurofeedback

Referred to by some as "meditation of the west", bio/neurofeedback is a modality whereby individuals are made aware of their physiological state and reactions via computer-generated 'real time' feedback of nervous system activity.  Superficial electrodes are attached to the skin surface measuring muscle tension, peripheral body temperature, sweat gland activity, brain waves, respiration and heart rate.  Patients are taught to regulate body responses through such techniques as progressive muscle relaxation, visual imagery, mindful breathing, and other body awareness and tension-reducing techniques. 
​
Psychological/Oriental Medicine Assessment​

Evaluation is an integral part of every treatment.  Initial assessment is conducted for each new patient whether they are seeking Psychological Services, Biofeedback, Acupuncture or Herbal Consultation.  Patients can expect on-going monitoring of progress with modification to treatment protocols as necessary.  Psychological, Psychoeducational, and Neuropsychological Evaluations are also available.
