Please consult your physician before starting any new treatment.

Consistent monthly treatment scheduled between flare-ups to preserve nerve function, manage muscular tension, and support systemic balance for ongoing Multiple Sclerosis management.

Targeted weekly sessions rehabilitation protocols sustained over six months to help regulate central nervous system function, lessen cognitive fatigue, and enhance traumatic brain injury recovery.

The time between 2 weeks and 3 months after a stroke is the 2nd golden period for care. Intensive bi-weekly sessions encourage vascular restoration and neural reactivation.

Scalp Acupuncture

Dr. Tung & auricular (ear) are examples of systems I use in my practice to reach areas that are inaccessable to needlingn. These systems work very well for pain, congenital disease, and internal organ dysfunction.

Scalp Acupuncture involves placing acupuncture needles along the scalp along suture lines to

Tuina with essential oils

Assessing the pulse and tongue of the patient gives a window into the deeper levels of energetics. These tools give a snapshot of the internal systems strengths and weaknesses. When systems begin to harmonize , I often feel it in the puse first.

Massage is a helpful modality to relax tight or spastic muscles. Adding essential oils

How Acupuncture Supports Brain Recovery

The medical trials and research on acupuncture are limited but promising. Here are a few that demonstrate how acupuncture stimulates neural repair, increases cerebral blood circulation, and enhances cellular neuroplasticity during stroke rehabilitation.
