Acupuncture  TOP
This comprehensive medical system is over 4,000 years old and is based on the movement of Qi (energy) throughout the body. For various reasons, the flow and distribution of Qi can become unbalanced. Through these sessions, our experienced acupuncturists can help determine underlying causes and patterns of disharmony and then help restore balance by "needling" particular points throughout the body.

Craniosacral Therapy  TOP
Rooted in osteopathic medicine, Craniosacral Therapy is based on the theory that cerebrospinal fluid ebbs and flows within the membrane around the brain and spinal cord, increasing or decreasing pressure on the cranium in the process. For some individuals, whether through illness or injury, the cranio-sacral rhythmic flow may be disrupted or impeded, resulting in chronic pain, discomfort or ailments such as recurring ear and sinus infections. Through this gentle therapy, our therapists apply very light movements to the skull to mobilize the cranio-sacral rhythmic flow of fluid. By doing so, they can help increase relaxation and improve circulation in order to promote positive healing effects throughout your body.

Jin Shin Jyutsu®  TOP

Jin Shin Jyutsu®, an ancient Japanese healing art, means “art of the creator through person of knowing and compassion.” In a Jin Shin Jyutsu session, the client lies face-up on a massage table while the practitioner lightly touches specific points on the body where energy might accumulate in order to assist the energy to resume its natural flow. Allowing blocked energy to release may result in feelings of deep relaxation, clearer thinking and emotional or physical healing. Jin Shin Jyutsu is an excellent complement to conventional healing methods. Have questions about Jin Shin Jyutsu see the most frequently asked questions (faq).
