Acupuncture

Acupuncture is an effective form of medical treatment that has evolved into a complete holistic health care system. Practitioners of acupuncture and Chinese medicine have used this noninvasive treatment method to help millions of people become and stay well.  Acupuncture promotes natural healing. It can enhance recuperative power and immunity, support physical and emotional health, and improve overall function and well-being. It is a safe, painless, and effective way to treat a wide variety of medical problems.

Acupuncture is a therapy that uses the insertion of tiny thread-like needles to specific points on the body along meridians (energy channels of the body) that cross the body. As long as the energy flows freely through these pathways, health is maintained. When the flow of energy is disturbed for any reason, there is disruption in health, resulting in pain or illness. By stimulating appropriate acupuncture points along these meridians, the energy is regulated, and health is restored.

Mei Zen Cosmetic Acupuncture

Mei Zen Cosmetic Acupuncture is your healthy option for looking and feeling younger. Cosmetic Acupuncture is a healthy option for cosmetic improvements. It is the true “anti-aging medicine”.

Through the procedure is not well known or publicized in the United States, it has been used for centuries in China by Emperors and the wealthy. Cosmetic Acupuncture is a relatively non-invasive procedures that actually improves your health.

The obvious benefits include having softer, firmer skin, reduction of deeper wrinkles, possible elimination of finer wrinkles, and improvements of jowl lines. Although not visually as dramatic as a surgical procedure, Mei Zen Cosmetic Acupuncture actually has a much more dramatic overall effect. Besides the obvious visual changes, patients have reported improved digestion, better quality sleep, reduction of hot flashes, elimination of mild depression and anxiety, improved energy, and an overall sense of well-being. Patients leave not only looking younger but feeling younger and healthier. It is fair to say that this is the only cosmetic procedure that actually improves the health of the patient.

From Western medicine standpoint, Mei Zen Cosmetic Acupuncture works because the needles may cause micro-traumas in the skin to which the body can respond by increasing blood flow and the production of collagen and elastin for wound healing. The needling, which is done at the level of the dermis, may also stimulate neurotransmitter production. From the Chinese Medicine perspective, qi and blood are being brought to the face, qi is being lifted, and the body’s energetic systems are being put into balance. This is why the wonderful side effects occur. The procedure is very low risk because the needling is so superficial; occasionally bruising occurs.

      • 2 Treatments a week for 5 weeks
      • Important because the skin (dermis) has to be constantly stimulated to stimulate collagen
      • Treats the skin and internal causes of aging
      • Before and after pictures will be taken
      • Results can be from subtle to dramatic
      • Results may last 2-5 years with monthly maintenance. Once result aren’t lasting, it is time for another series of 10

      Massage Therapy

      Pre Natal Massage

      Prenatal massage shares many of the goals of regular massage – to relax tense muscles, ease sore spots, improve circulation and mobility, and just make you feel good. But it’s also tailored specifically to the needs of pregnant women and their changing bodies, and therapists who are trained in prenatal massage adjust their techniques accordingly.

      Swedish Massage

      Swedish techniques utilize long, flowing strokes, often but not necessarily in the direction of the heart. There are six basic strokes: effleurage (French meaning: ‘to skim over’), petrissage (French meaning: ‘to knead’), friction, tapotement, compression, and vibration.

      Deep Tissue Massage

      Deep tissue techniques are generally designed for more focused massage work. Working a specific joint, muscle or muscle group, the practitioner can access deeper layers of the soft tissue.

       

      THAI  MASSAGE

      Thai massage allows for you to keep your clothes on,  it incorporates yoga stretching while also applying a rhythmic compression along the body’s energetic lines. Creating a relaxing flow for flexibility and energy.
