Community Acupuncture
Community acupuncture treatments involve being comfortably reclined on treatment tables arranged in a relaxing group setting. Treatment is provided using effective points on the head, torso, arms, and legs. This style of acupuncture creates a collective healing environment. With this we offer an affordable sliding scale making acupuncture more accessible to more people in the community.

Private Acupuncture
Private acupuncture treatments are available to those who prefer a bit more privacy. Treatments are one-on-one with the acupuncturist. If you are nervous about trying acupuncture, we recommend booking your first session as a private one, then you are welcome to switch to community afterwards or continue with private sessions.

TCM Massage - Tui Na
Tui Na is a therapeutic form of massage and has been used in China for more than 5,000 years. Tui na makes use of rhythmic compression techniques along different energy channels of the body to establish harmonious flow of qi throughout the body and bringing it back to balance. By applying pressure to meridians, acupoints, and groups of muscles and nerves, tui na removes blockages and works deeply with the positive energy of the body.
