Our Services
Herbal Medicine
Herbal remedies were used long before western pharmaceuticals were introduced. Supporting the healing processes and conditions with herbs is a complementary approach as well as an individual one. Personalized herbal prescriptions are specifically designed to support the individual at a current time and are prepared with the individual in mind.
Natural Pain Relief
We specialize in healing any variety of pain such as headaches, chronic pain, joint pain and muscle pain. We use an array of proven methods and styles to accommodate each individual. Our goal is to treat and relieve your pain permanently by treating the root and balancing the branches. You are unique and your care will be suited for your individuality.
Health Maintenance
Diagnostic evaluations locate the root of your health issues and address them naturally. Acupuncture and herbal prescriptions can help treat many chronic and acute conditions, rather than managing or suppressing them. We also want to see you for regular maintenance in order to keep you aligned in a healthful balance.
