We successfully treat all kinds of conditions and complaints, as well as provide preventive medicine to keep the body in balance and disease free. Individualized treatment plans are set up to get to the root of the imbalance making real improvements in your wellbeing, instead of just masking the problems.

Corrine is amazing! She spent so much time getting to know me and my needs. I felt like I was the most important client and when talking about your health that is so important. She explained each step of the process before so I knew what to expect. The room is incredibly welcoming and comfortable. I cannot wait to go back and continue my treatment plan!

Techniques
A session with Corrine may include treatments such as cupping, gua sha, electro-stimulation or moxibustion. Each session is individually based in order to create a custom experience designed to allow you the maximum amount of relaxation and healing. Here’s some information to help you learn more before for your visit.
Cupping
In Eastern medicine, cupping is a therapy in which heated glass cups are applied to the skin along the meridians of the body, creating suction as a way of stimulating the flow of energy.
Gua sha
A healing technique of traditional East Asian medicine, sometimes called coining, spooning or scraping. It is an instrument-assisted, unidirectional pressing of a lubricated area of the body to intentionally create therapeutic petechiae called sha.
Electro-stimulation
This refers to the application of electric current to stimulate bone or muscle tissue for therapeutic purposes, such as the facilitation of muscle activation, as well to encourage muscle strengthening.
Moxibustion
A treatment that involves the burning of mugwort, a small, spongy herb, and is applied direct or indirectly, in order to facilitate healing. Its purpose is to strengthen the blood and maintain general health.
