Massage Therapy

Massage therapy can help with a variety of concerns such as shoulder tension, low back tension, headaches, poor sleep, stress relief, muscle pain and tension, and more.


Acupuncture

Fine, sterile needles are applied to points throughout the body to stimulate a healing effect. We offer private acupuncture and sliding scale community acupuncture appointments, as well as other services that fall under the scope of acupuncture: cupping, gua sha and ear seeds.


No-Needle Treatments

No-needle treatments provide the benefits of acupuncture without the needles. Both treatments fall under the scope of practice of acupuncturists, and use tools other than needles to stimulate acupuncture points or channels. Click on either treatment to see full description.
