 We offer THE BEST CARE in PORTLAND for Traditional Chinese Medicine and Acupuncture, Women’s Healthcare, Injury Recovery, Aesthetic Acupuncture Services, Massage, & Functional Nutrition.

Our team is highly experienced as each of our acupuncturists has been practicing for over 13+ years, and we have been the go-to clinic for integrative care management for over 17 years.  Our integrative care is unique and effective and provides amazing results for your Wellness needs. 

Our team is ready to serve you with a variety of treatments to meet you needs. Please visit our treatments page for more information.

Our signature treatment that is unique to our clinic is a 4-step process that utilizes TCM, Acupuncture, massage & cupping in each of our treatments.  

Step 1: Let’s Connect

One-on-one wellness intake with your acupuncturist. The goal here is for you to feel seen and heard. Together, we design a treatment plan that addresses your desires and utilizes your acupuncturist’s professional knowledge.

Step 2: Here Comes AcuLand

An initial set of needles is placed and you will begin to settle in. The goal of AcuLand is for your body to become one with the table, your mind to be clear, and your spirit to be light- that limbo place between sleep and awake where all is calm.

Step 3: Let’s Go Deeper

A second set of needles. This is your acupuncturist’s opportunity to shift you deeper into your treatment, revealing what’s next to further your healing.

Step 4: Let’s Reintegrate

Our Therapeutic Massage Specialist (ITMS) will come to you in your treatment room with the acupuncturist. The needles will be removed, the acupuncturist will have a quick conversation with the ITMS about your specific needs that day, and then leave the room, where your reintegration with massage begins.

*Our mission is to shift you as far as you can go within the bounds of what your body can handle that day. Each patient will have their own specific needs addressed and we will form a plan that works for you.

Because we like to make each treatment specific to your body’s needs, we may incorporate other treatment modalities to best serve you while on the table, including cupping, moxa, gua sha, trigger point therapy/dry needling, red light therapy, TDP heat lamps and hugs if needed.

Please book a new patient visit for what resonates with you for where you are in your health at this time. If you don’t know what to choose or have a sense, please book a complimentary 15 min discovery call and we will sort it out together.

Our Services

 

Acupuncture

Experience AcuLand with our acupuncture therapy. You will experience relaxation, pain relief, immune support, and long-term healing benefits with this ancient therapy. You will receive 2 rounds of acupuncture on our heated tables, with relaxing music wit our highly skilled and attentive providers.

Acupuncture and Cupping Therapy

Experience the benefits of acupuncture and the feeling of AcuLand followed by Cupping therapy. Cupping therapy is used mainly for musculoskeletal issues. It provides pain relief, loosens muscles and breaks up facia. It feels like a massage in reverse and “sucks” out all the tension. Cups can be adjusted throughout for the patients comfort and needs. We use fire cupping in our clinic for this purpose.

Acupuncture and Therapeutic Bodywork

Our signature acupuncture treatment - You will not only experience major relaxation and pain relief, this treatment will have you feeling revived and new!

Includes the four steps of treatment.  Wellness intake, 2 acupuncture check-ins followed by Therapeutic massage by one of our skilled LMT’s. Brief cupping is included if applicable for no extra charge *insurance is subject to individual coverage 

Cupping

Volunteering to get poked with needles brings up fear for some people, so cupping can be a great way to experience Chinese medicine and work up the guts to get some acupuncture. It is a painless modality that feels more like a massage in reverse! Patients report a feeling of ease and fluidity with their range of motion.

Cupping gently breaks up any adhesions that are formed in the muscle and skin layer due to overuse or underuse of muscles. Perfect for musculoskeletal pain, headaches from neck and shoulder tension, low back pain, stubborn coughs, avoiding a budding cold, and aiding in detoxification.

Sculpt and Slim Facial Cupping + Gua Sha

Originally called Gua Sha this ancient Chinese technique is also known as "scraping" or "graston." Gua Sha utilizes a ceramic spoon or jade gua sha tool. Similar to cupping, this modality is generally used to release muscle tension and pain, encourage lymphatic drainage, and promote circulation. Gua Sha can be done gently on the face to reduce puffiness, smooth wrinkles, and encourage circulation. If used a little more vigorously on the muscles and connective tissue it will also encourage circulation as well as break up scar tissue and facia. It is most commonly used for painful areas on the body that need more than massage or muscle release from acupuncture.

Facial Cupping is a wonderful modality to increase circulation and stimulate the lymph system in the neck and face reducing puffiness and fluid retention.

Try this therapy when you are feeling puffy and stuck and it shows on your face.

Facial Rejuvenation Aesthetic Acupuncture

More details about these therapies on the Aesthetic Acupuncture Page

Aesthetic acupuncture is a whole-body treatment of acupuncture including the face.It s is beneficial for acne, fine lines/wrinkles, dull and lustreless complexion, dark circles, puffiness and bags under the eyes, and a feeling of overall glow and brightness to the skin.

Microneedling

Microneedling is a non-invasive procedure where the practitioner uses a small pen-like device that makes tiny holes on the surface of the skin that stimulate collagen and elastin to regrow thereby resurfacing the skin in one treatment.  Leaving your skin feeling like new, because it is!
