The Magic of Acupuncture, Cupping and Moxa
​Acupuncture is known to heal a variety of ailments. One of its most magical therapies is its ability to lower our sympathetic nervous system, our body's built-in alarm. When thrown off balance, it can cause serious complications, including pain, chronic disease and premature aging. Regular acupuncture therapy is able to reset the nervous system and encourage the body to heal. 

A session of acupuncture therapy is surprisingly painless, extremely relaxing, and often provides noticeable results. Check with your extended health provider to see if registered acupuncture is covered under your benefits.

Facial Rejuvenation

Facial Rejuvenation Acupuncture is quickly becoming one of the most sought-after treatments. It is a completely natural therapy that is able to lift the muscles without the use of injections into the face. This youth-enhancing treatment can noticeably tone facial muscles, diminish lines and sagging skin, stimulate collagen, brighten skin, banish wrinkles, and heal facial scars. 

Cupping

Cupping is an age-old therapy that uses suction on the skin to improve circulation, calm inflammation, stop pain, and promote relaxation. While feeling similarly to a deep tissue massage, cupping packs a punch and leaves the area more oxygenated for faster recovery. Cupping can increase mobility and range of motion in just one session. It is common to feel tired after cupping and rest is recommended. ​

Moxibustion (Moxa)

Moxa has been used for centuries and for a variety of reasons. It involves the burning of a herb, Mugwort, and is used to warm and circulate the body. This is beneficial for autoimmune diseases, cold conditions, and chronic pain. The warming properties of moxa has also been very successful in balancing digestion, regulating menstrual cycles, as well as turning breech babies. Moxa smells pleasantly earthy and feels very comfortable.
