- Shiatsu Massage$85Shiatsu is a traditional, hands-on Japanese healing art. It can help in a wide range of conditions - from specific injuries to more general symptoms of poor health. Shiatsu is a deeply relaxing experience and regular Shiatsu sessions help to prevent the build up of stress in our daily lives.
- Nutritional ConsultationNutrition is a major branch of Chinese Medicine. It is the first line of treatment, before herbs and acupuncture. One's constitution and condition should dictate one's diet. Just as a system of cause and effect occurs in Nature, eating warming foods can treat a cold constitution or condition, and vice versa. The Chinese and many other systems of natural medicine have spent millenia observing how different substances, including food, effect our body's function. Nutritional therapy has been developed as a modality that can stand on its own. During treatment, an acupuncturist should inquire about the dietary habits of all patients. Often recommendations are made that can be crucial to the success of the treatment. Emphasis is placed on well-balanced nutrition in terms of vitamins, minerals, and fiber intake as well. The typical overheated American diet of foods like French fries, chili dogs, hot dogs, hot off the griddle Johnny cakes, meats, alcohol, etc. will create an unbalanced system that is vulnerable to diseases of heat or excess, such as cancer and heart disease.

- Acupuncture$25Essential Oils constitute a branch of Herbalism. A vast amount of plant material is used to yield a small bottle of oil, and they are thus highly concentrated.
