Auricular (Ear) Acupuncture
Ear acupuncture is commonly used to treat stress, trauma and addiction but it can be used to treat a wide variety of complaints. It is a quick and easy way to receive a full treatment without accessing the whole body. It works by using the ear as a microsystem for the whole body and it goes deeply, treats the root of your concerns and leaves you feeling very relaxed.
Infrared/ Heat Lamps
Both infrared (sun) and clay (medicinal) heat lamps increase healing in the body. Warmth is very important to Chinese Medicine as it allows for proper movement of qi (energy) and blood which supports health and vitality. Cold in the body is a common cause of pain and illness thus the simplicity of adding heat to a treatment can go a long way.
