• Cupping ~~ The ultimate in muscle release, especially for tight muscles in the back. Gwyneth Paltrow made this famous on the red carpet when she showed her cupping marks.
• Moxa ~ a.k.a. moxibustion ~~ Warming and relaxing, like sitting by a hot fire. Great for your low back. We can perform moxa with a mugwort moxa pole or simulate it with our TDP Far-infrared lamps. Smokeless moxa is charcoaled and is less smokey than the raw mugwort moxa pole. We also sell both for homework and personal usage.
• Qi Gong ~~ Pronounced Chee Gong, is Chinese energy work performed with Acupuncture, massage, or on its own.
• Electrostimulation ~~ Great for depression and anxiety and to get the thoughts moving.
• Gua sha (pronounced Gwa shah) ~~ Excellent for neck and shoulder tension. Breaks up adhesions.
These Chinese Medicine modalities can be included in or added onto any Acupuncture treatment. If you are interested, please discuss with your Licensed Acupuncturist, Dr. Megan Marco, when you come in for your appointment to see what modalities are applicable to your treatment goals.
