 Acupuncture                                                                                                      

 
Traditional acupuncture, rooted in nature and the five elements, functions on the levels of the body, mind, and spirit. This ancient method of healing is based on natural laws influencing the movement of energy (or life force) found in nature and the body.
  
This life force energy, called ch’i, flows through the body in channels called meridians. Health is promoted when the ch’i in the body is full and moving properly. Illness can begin when the ch’i is blocked and moves disharmoniously. Such things as stress, sadness, and injury can also disrupt the harmonious movement of ch’i. 
 
Acupuncture treats the underlying imbalances and promotes harmony within the body. It does this by the insertion of fine, sterile, disposable needles at specific points along the meridians.

     Myofascial Release

Used in many hospitals today to speed healing from surgery and trauma Reiki will also help you reduce stress and leave you feeling more calm and centered within.
     
     

     Craniosacral Therapy
