Acupuncture & Acupressure

acupuncture

Acupuncture is the ancient art of applying thin, sterile needles at specific points below the skin (meridians or energy pathways) to help promote the flow of “Qi” which regulates mental and physical balance. Needles are never placed into any dangerous structure, and most people feel minimal pain, if any at all. It is used to treat a wide variety of illnesses from insomnia to allergies, and encourages the body to promote natural healing processes. Acupuncture treatments are provided by Dr. Yuqi Yang, D.C.M.

Acupressure, also called Tuina, is a Chinese therapeutic massage that enhances the effects of acupuncture by using fingers and hands instead of needles.  Over 20 manipulations can be used according to the principles of Traditional Chinese Medicine.  It provides excellent results in relaxation, rehabilitation and the promotion of well-being. Acupressure is incorporated in Acupuncture treatments provided by Dr. Yuqi Yang, C.M.D. Dr.Ac.
