Acupuncture therapy:

Acupuncture is the insertion of very fine needles in different points of the body to balance the flow of Qi. It is part of a complete medical system and integrated approach to health maintenance and treatment of disease. According to the National Institute of Health, over one million people in the US receive acupuncture annually.

Recent research has found evidence that acupuncture points are strategic conductors along meridian pathways which through acupuncture enables electromagnetic signals to be relayed at a greater rate than under normal conditions. The electromagnetic signals may start the flow of pain-killing biochemicals, such as endorphins, and of immune system cells to specific sites in the body that are injured or vulnerable to disease.

Tui-Na therapy (Body work/Massage):

Tuina is Chinese therapeutic massage applied on specific acupuncture points, along a channel or meridian, or a whole area of the body. Although best known for its capacity to help body aches, joint problems, back pain, and neck stiffness, Tui-na can also help with many disorders, such as insomnia and indigestion.

Qi-Gong (Breathing Exercise):

Qi Gong is a practice of specific breathing techniques combined with movement and visualization in order to regulate the body functuions. Qi Gong exercise can help relieve many symptoms such as pain, anxiety, stress and depression, as well as ease fatigue and insomnia. It affects many body processes and promotes well-being and relaxation.
