Acupuncture

Acupuncture is a branch of Traditional Chinese Medicine (TCM) that was developed over 2,000 years ago. It is an effective and natural form of health care that has evolved into a complete medical system. It is a safe, holistic way to effectively treat a wide range of medical conditions. By stimulating the body’s various systems, acupuncture can help resolve pain, improve sleep and digestive function, among many other ailments.

Cupping

By utilizing suction cups to help stimulate the flow of Qi and blood to the superficial layers of the skin, cupping allows the practitioner to address familiar issues like muscular pain by detoxing injured tissue while at the same time increasing fresh blood and oxygen. It can also be used to assist the body in combating viral and bacterial illness such as flu and common cold.

Tui-Na (tway-nah)

Tui Na is a form of massage used exclusively in the Chinese Medicine context. Tui-Na focuses on reducing muscle tension and realigning joints by working with and through the meridian system in the body. Tui-Na is usually performed after the acupuncture treatment of musculoskeletal and joint issues. Acupressure may also be applied with Tui Na.

Gua Sha

Gua Sha has been used for centuries in Traditional Chinese Medicine to remove stagnation in the body by increasing circulation and breaking down scar tissue. This technique is used very often at Oak Point Health for the treatment of sports injuries and post surgical scarring.
