Acupuncture
Acupuncture is a medical treatment, rooted in the ancient science of Yin and Yang, in which fine needles are strategically inserted into the body. It works with your body’s innate intelligence to re-balance your system and create proper energy and blood flow.
The effectiveness of acupuncture is demonstrated in the clinical results. Consequently, western researchers have become curious and started taking a closer look. Here are some findings on the scientific mechanism of acupuncture.
Causes chemical changes at a cellular level and increase cellular conductivity via the connective tissue.
Increases blood flow and circulation - seen by doppler ultrasound.
Decreases pain – MRI readings show that the stimulation of acupuncture points illicit observable changes in the brain (one of which is for pain)
We provide duration options, to provide you with a treatment that works with your available time and clinical needs.

Additional Services to Enhance Your Health
Moxibustion
Moxibustion is a form of topical heat therapy that applies a burning an herb, called Ai Ye, to areas of the body and acupuncture points.
Moxibustion creates an overall warming and circulating effect to the blood and qi and thereby decreases pain, inflammation, and what Chinese medicine understands as “coldness” in the body. As it helps promote movement, we also use moxa to help turn breech babies.
We complementarily include moxa in all acupuncture treatments, as needed.
Fertility Coaching
For thousands of years, Chinese medicine has been used to enhance fertility, balance hormones and treat gynecological and other health conditions that could be a factor in your ability to conceive.
Creating a healthy environment to conceive starts with understanding your unique fertility and health presentation. You are more than your diagnosis or lack thereof. By implementing a preconception care plan that is customized specifically for you - you create the fertile ground by which to conceive and maintain a healthy pregnancy.
Microneedling
Microneedling effectively treats fine lines, wrinkles, acne scars, improves skin texture and color and dramatically enhances effectiveness of skincare products.
Visible results begin on the first day and continue for weeks afterward. As collagen levels continue to build up, your skin becomes more luminous and complexion more even.

Chinese Herbal Medicine
The powerful healing properties of herbs are a safe and effective method to not only treat your symptoms but correct the root cause of disease. As part of our comprehensive care, each herbal blend is customized to fit your unique pattern of symptoms and health presentation.
Your herbal formula is specific for you and changes as you improve. There is no one size fits all prescription. As a board-certified herbalist, we take extra precaution and care to ensure quality control and safety for each patient.
Supplements
Natural supplements are sometimes recommended to address any deficiencies and support your body’s natural healing ability.
Although I will recommend specific supplements for your treatment, you are welcome to use our online store for any supplement purchase.
Cupping
Cupping is a wonderful modality for pain relief and much more! The cups gently pull the fascia and muscle upward, allowing any inflammation, toxicity, and stagnant blood flow to surface and be eliminated. This therapy is also used to prevent and treat colds and flus.
Cupping provides muscle tension and stress relief. Many of our patients love to add this therapy onto their acupuncture treatments.

“Marie is a very special practitioner. I have seen her weekly over the last year, before and during my pregnancy. She is extremely skilled, knowledgeable, professional, and flexible. She’s been an instrumental part of my prenatal experience, and I’m sure had a hand in helping my dream of being a mother come true. She has served as one of my great supporters during this journey, and to say she’s just an acupuncturist seems reductive. More like a hybrid therapist, friend, nutritionist, and healer.”
