Care at the clinic
Acupuncture is the heart of a visit. Herbs and cupping are added only when they fit your plan.

Fine, single-use needles at points chosen for you, in a quiet room. Most visits last about 45 minutes.

A written list of herbs chosen for one person, weighed in our pharmacy as raw herbs, granules or a tincture.

Glass cups set on the back or shoulders for a few minutes, after a short talk about what to expect.
About cupping

What your acupuncturist may add
Moxibustion
Warmth from a burning herb held near a point, never touching the skin. Tell us first if smoke bothers you.
Gua sha
A smooth tool drawn over oiled skin on the back or shoulders. It leaves a faint flush that fades in a few days.
Ear seeds
Tiny seeds taped to the ear for you to press between visits, for people who would rather start without needles.
