Classical Acupuncture utilizes 62 meridians and several systems of healing.  Originating in the Han Dynasty and practiced widely until the Song Dynasty in China.  Today, Classical Acupuncture is poised to help individuals find their inner wisdom and achieve their greatest sense of wellbeing and joy in life by connecting more deeply to that which is within.  

Moxabustion, or moxa / mugwart used to bring yang (warming, moving) energy to the body.   Moxa is safe, effective, and feels wonderful!  The impact of moxa can be felt immediately and is good for poor circulation,  pain which is stabbing or unrelenting pain, the sensation of cold or chills, as well as digestive and gynecological conditions.  

Cupping and Gua Sha are two manual therapy techniques that increase blood flow and Qi circulation to an area which has pain or stiffness.  Leaving a temporary mark (you might have seen them on athletes and celebrities in the news!) the sensation of pain relief is well worth a blemish that resolves in just a few days.  Used to treat muscular-skeletal issues, especially good for chronic pain that seems to linger over time. 

Vibrational medicine is the heart of natural healing and Classical Chinese medicine.  Dr. Leah has studied how to apply stones and essential oils for health and healing in four years of continuing education courses with her teacher.  Dr. Leah is also passionate how sounds can heal and uses planetary tuning forks, Tibetan singing bowls, as well as gongs - particularly when patients are needle sensitive or phobic or would rather have a less invasive healing session.  

Emotional Freedom Technique (EFT) or tapping is an energy psychology practice that helps people heal from emotional as well as physical trauma.  It's exceptionally powerful, can be done with very small children even remotely and is based loosely on the Chinese acupuncture points and their power to release areas where we are "stuck" in our lives.  Lifestlyle coaching is a part of every patient visit in terms of dietary counseling, sleep scheduling and stress management tips.  We all need support and Dr. Leah is here to deliver.
