Our Services & Specialties
Acupuncture
Acupuncture is a whole healing system that has been utilized for thousands of years to help bring our bodies into energetic balance and in turn promote healing and optimal functioning. In addition to acu, these treatments can include other modalities that will also support the body’s energetic function including cupping, gua sha or moxibustion.
Naturopathic Medicine
Naturopathic medicine combines modern scientific knowledge with traditional and natural healing methods, focusing on stimulating the body’s own healing abilities and addressing the root causes of disease. This holistic approach includes personalized treatment plans that incorporate diet and lifestyle changes, herbal medicine, clinical nutrition, supplement recommendations, and traditional Chinese medicine practices like acupuncture.
Holistic Aesthetics
Our holistic aestheticians offer a unique approach to aesthetics that goes beyond traditional treatments. Our team of practitioners come from a diverse array of backgrounds and training, each bringing their expertise and personalized touch to the facial services they offer. Depending on the practitioner’s background and your unique needs, your facial may include a variety of techniques and treatments.
Holistic Nutrition
Working with a holistic nutritionist offers a customized approach to health, focusing on individual needs and lifestyle factors. Holistic Nutrition emphasizes identifying and addressing the root causes of health issues through a comprehensive assessment of one’s diet, exercise, stress, sleep patterns and more.

RMT’s are effective in treating and providing relief for a wide range of conditions such as migraine headaches, tendonitis, arthritis, osteoporosis, fibromyalgia, sports injuries, as well as many other common conditions related to soft tissue and joint dysfunction.
