Question 1

NeuroAcupuncture Treatments

Accepted Answer

NeuroAcupuncture is a contemporary acupuncture technique integrating traditional Chinese needling methods with Western biomedical neurology. NeuroAcupuncture has proven to be the most effective technique for treating acute and chronic central nervous system disorders, including: stroke, Parkinson’s Disease, Multiple Sclerosis, Traumatic Brain Injury, PTSD, Cerebral Palsy, and Autism. Patients often experience remarkable results with just a few needles, bringing about immediate improvement.   NeuroAcupuncture Treatments take longer than regular full acupuncture treatments, depending on the chief complaints and the treatment.  They are booked as a Double Treatment.   Recommended protocol is twice a week for 5 weeks, then reassess and spread the treatments out.

Question 2

Acupuncture Facelifts / Facial Rejuvenation Acupuncture

Accepted Answer

Let your inner beauty shine.  Natural beauty originates from deeper levels.  It emanates from the balance that exists deep within the body as well as the superficial layers. Facial Rejuvenation treatments can reveal your inner beauty, bringing a radiant glow and energizing lift to your face. Acupuncture Facelifts can improve many facial conditions such as acne, dry skin, sagging skin, wrinkles, frown lines, scars, double chin, and bags and circles under the eyes.  The Facial Rejuvenation Treatment is a series of 15 treatments grouped close together.  A Maintenance Program follows of every other week to once/month.   Dr. Megan Marco trained with one of the American pioneers of Facial Rejuvenation, Acupuncturist Virginia Doran, who pulled this knowledge out of the ancient texts of emperors' acupuncturists.  Facial Rejuvenation is subtle, effective, and shapes the face like sculpting clay.  The treatments lift the skin of the face, build collagen to push out any wrinkles, fade scars, and increase circulation to bring more vitality and a healthy glow to the face, while still keeping the facial muscles intact to allow the person to look like themself while their face and body get younger. 
The Acupuncture Facelift does not involve botulism, like botox, nor does it inject any chemicals or fillers into or onto the skin or involve any surgery.  It is a healthy way to truly look and feel younger and happier.   With a combination of Acupuncture and herbs, internal and topical, we will treat the underlying causes of aging while helping you to look and feel better.  Homework of organic creams, herbs, and supplements can help to complement, speed up, and maintain results.

Question 4

Cupping, Moxa, and Far-Infrared"

Accepted Answer

Cupping
The ultimate in muscle release, for tight muscles in the back.  Gwyneth Paltrow made this famous on the red carpet when she showed her cupping marks.  Olympic athletes have also shown off their cupping marks.   Moxa and Far-Infrared
Also called moxibustion, it is warming and relaxing, like sitting by a hot fire. Great for your lower back. We simulate moxa with our TDP Far-infrared lamps, the jade mats, and the BioMat.   Smokeless moxa is charcoaled and is less smokey than the raw mugwort moxa pole, while the raw mugwort is raw and not treated and lights quicker.  We sell both for home personal usage and can teach you how to use them.   Cupping and Far Infrared can be added onto any Acupuncture treatment.  If you are interested, please discuss with Dr. Megan Marco to see which modalities are applicable to your treatment goals.
