Personalized Treatment Plan

Tailored Care for Your Unique Needs

Our approach begins with a thorough body constitutional inquiry with Traditional Chinese Medicine diagnostic methods, such as tongue checking and pulse analysis to assess your general health needs. Your body constitution definitely influences the tone of your facial muscles. By understanding how your body moves and functions, we can create a targeted strategy for optimal results.

The Power of Acupuncture

Using a combination of Traditional Acupuncture points and muscle motor points, we stimulate the meridians on the face to circulate more energies and blood for better healing. Main acupuncture points used on the face are from the stomach, gallbladder and small intestine channels. Motor points of the face are used for sculpture, toning and lifting of the face.

Comprehensive Care with Complimentary Therapies

Depending on your needs, we incorporate additional therapies such as facial sculpting Gua Sha (skin scrapping), LED anti-aging light and/or moxibustion with healing herb mugwort to enhance the effectiveness of your treatment.
Personalized Care

What to Expect During Your Acupuncture Session

Our consultations are tailored and client centered to ensure strategic localization of procedure and treatment to a myriad of cosmetic maintenance plans. Stubborn facial muscles are properly set in place without external force, freezing, or augmentation. This method ensures a true to root, foundational, and core level treatment that improves the longevity and quality of your skin.

Treatment sessions average 60 minutes but is entirely dependent on the individuals assessed needs. Any extra time may occasionally be added at no additional cost to ensure you receive the full benefit of the treatment experience. Regardless, you are sure to leave feeling physically alleviated, serene, and solaced.
