Medicine, A Natural Approach First Consult and Acupuncture Treatment During a consult of this type, I do an extensive intake, asking questions about the reason for the visit, past history, and do on. The last half of the time is pent with a treatment based on the diagnosis I make. Time: About 1.5 hours Acupuncture Treatment During and acupuncture treatment I may use several modalities, acupuncture, acupressure, therapeutic massage, herbal compresses, electro stimulation, moxa and deep heat, depending on the goals of the treatment. Time: About 1 hour Herb and Supplement Consult I find that many people have questions about the supplements or herbs they have decided to take. Many people over supplement. During this consultation I am here to answer questions about current herbs and supplements or to consult on recommendations. Time: About 1 hour Facial Rejuvenation, A Natural Face LiftIn this treatment you are truly pampered. The treatment is designed to one and lift the face as well as to encourage the reduction of fine lines. Only natural ingredients are used. I mix herbs which are gently steamed to create herbal packs to open the pores and to clean your face. I also use acupuncture (with your permission) and/or gentle electro stimulation to help reduce fine lines. Next comes an acupressure facial massage, using the Chinese meridian system to tone and lift. While all the above is happening, you are relaxing to soft music as well as the aromas of herbal essential oils. Hands and feet also receive gentle therapeutic massage while the herbal steams are working. This package is wonderful for both men and women. Time: This Royal Treatment lasts for1.5 hours Time is needed to prepare the herbal formulas, please book ahead. Nutrition Consult Many people have questions about their diets. What should I be eating or not eating? How should I combine foods? When is the right time to eat? Do I have any special needs. How can I control and change my old eating habits? Stretching & Exercises Come see me to learn a series of gentle stretching exercises to open the energy and balance the qi. These exercises help to open, strengthen and balance the energy in the Chinese meridian system. I will also show you specific exercises to strengthen your own specific needs Time: About 1 hour Stop Smoking This package includes a consult as well as four half hour treatments over a two-week period, herbs (if needed). Acupuncture and herbs are used in this program to help reduce the cravings for nicotine. I also use acupressure tags on the ears which are kept on until you come in for your next treatment. Often clients elect to come in for the four treatments in one week, but the can be spread out if wished after we consult. Some clients may need more treatments. Time and prices vary, please talk with me about this service. Cleanse & Detox This is a 10 day program. It includes an introductory class, a second, follow up class to answer questions and to introduce some supportive exercises, as well as herbs and a day by day program book which I have created, detailing the program. This book includes menu suggestions as well. This program may be followed at any time during the year. Spring and Fall are the times when I teach this program to groups. Lavender Oil 15ml, certified organic essential oil, grown in California. This lavender is simply the best I have ever found. My source is a small producer in Northern California who does not produce enough to market to the general public. Price: $18.95 |
