Acupuncture
Acupuncture is a traditional healing method from Chinese medicine that involves inserting very thin, sterile needles into specific points on the body called acupoints.
These points lie along meridians that guide the flow of Qi (vital energy). By stimulating these points, acupuncture helps restore energy balance, improve circulation, and relieve pain or tension.
During treatment, a practitioner carefully selects acupoints based on the patient's symptoms and overall condition. The needles are inserted gently and may be left in place for about 15–30 minutes.
Some patients feel warmth, tingling, or deep relaxation. Acupuncture is commonly used to treat pain, stress, fatigue, digestive issues, and more, offering a holistic approach to both body and mind.

Acupotomy
Acupotomy is a modern therapeutic technique derived from traditional acupuncture. It uses a specialized needle with a flat, blade-like tip—similar to a micro-scalpel—to release tension in tight muscles, soft tissue adhesions, or fascia.
Unlike regular acupuncture, which focuses on stimulating Qi through meridians, acupotomy targets physical blockages and tissue abnormalities more directly.
This treatment is often used for chronic pain, frozen shoulder, herniated discs, or trigger point release, and is designed to improve range of motion and reduce inflammation.
Because the tool is minimally invasive and precise, it can treat deep-seated musculoskeletal problems with relatively quick recovery time.
Cupping Therapy
Cupping therapy is a form of alternative medicine in which a local suction is created on the skin.
Through suction, the skin is drawn into the cup by creating a vacuum in the cup placed on the skin over the targeted area.
The goal of cupping therapy is to relieve pain by promoting blood circulation on the area.
Acupuncture is commonly used for treating pain, deep scar tissues in the muscles and connective tissue, muscle knots, and swelling.


Electro Acupuncture
Electro Acupuncture is a modern variation of acupuncture. It uses electricity to enhance the benefits of this traditional therapeutic treatment.
Like traditional acupuncture, electroacupuncture uses needles placed in the same spots. Then, a small electrode is attached to the needles. A small amount of electricity runs through the electrode and gives a slight vibration or soft hum during treatment.
With electro-acupuncture, it circulates the bloodstream for longer and it provides a longer period of time for pain relief when compared to acupuncture.
When you get electroacupuncture, it activates your sympathetic nerve fibers. By activating these fibers, your body releases endogenous opioids such as endorphins, which help to reduce inflammation. The activated nerve fibers may also help to reduce feelings of persistent pain.
There are many uses and applications of electroacupuncture. Some uses are to treat pain, arthritis, chemotherapy-related nausea, stress, addiction and even tinnitus.
Herbal Medicine
Traditional medicine is “the knowledge, skills and practices based on the theories, beliefs and experiences indigenous to different cultures, used in the maintenance of health and in the prevention, diagnosis, improvement or treatment of physical and mental illness”
The use of plants for healing purposes predates recorded history and forms the origin of much of modern medicine. Many conventional drugs originate from plant sources: a century ago, most of the few effective drugs were plant-based. Examples include aspirin (from willow bark), digoxin (from foxglove), quinine (from cinchona bark), and morphine (from the opium poppy). The development of drugs from plants continues, with drug companies engaged in large-scale pharmacologic screening of herbs.
The use of herbal remedies is more prevalent in patients with acute illness, chronic diseases and improving well-being
