​Experience Wellness
​Through Ancient Modalities
Chinese medicine is based on the theory that the vital life force (Qi) controls the functions of main organs and systems of the body.  Qi is what gives you the ability to talk, walk, think, and dream. Qi must be flowing freely and in the correct strength and quality through each of the meridians for optimal health. If the energy within the meridians is balanced and harmonious, the body, mind, and spirit are also balanced. Illness is energy that is out of balance. Pain and symptoms are a distress signals, notifying us of an imbalance. Acupuncture, cupping, moxibustion and massage adjusts the flow of Qi in the body and in this way the harmonious balance of the body and its parts is restored.

The Magic of Cupping

Cupping is a relaxing ancient modality that is done by creating a vacuum over the skin using glass or plastic cups. Cupping moves qi and blood promoting smooth blood flow and circulation which calms the nervous system and also alleviates pain promoting a sense of peace and well-being.

​Facial Gua Sha

“Facial gua sha moves lymphatic fluids, releases the fascia so skin can function better, and breaks down adhesions and hardness in muscles, like in the jaw,” says acupuncturist Sandra Lanshin Chiu, owner of Treatment by Lanshin in Williamsburg, Brooklyn. “The net effect is a significant boost of blood and qi to the skin, and an increase in the circulatory flow of blood and fluids.” Studies have shown an increase in circulation from the technique and, says Chiu, better flow improves natural hydration, gives a glowy skin tone, and aids skin’s ability to purge the dirt, sebum, and general buildup in the pores that leads to acne."
