Your Different Treatment Options

Acupuncture Services in Bethel, CT

During an acupuncture session, we will be inserting sterilized tiny needles into many of your acupuncture points, where your Qi flows on the body. Qi is the harmonious balance of yin and yang, where good health is formed; bad health may be the result of an imbalance in these two forces.* We use acupuncture to bring energy flow back into a proper balance.*

Secondary Acupuncture Therapies

Cupping

Cupping is the process of creating a vacuum seal on a patient’s body. Small bamboo jars or glass cups will be used to break up stagnation and congestion and bring blood flow to the affected area. A part of Oriental medicine, this is offered in two ways, both dry and wet, and can help our Bethel patients find a sense of relief from soreness. *

Diathermy

Diathermy, often called moist heat therapy, can help with muscle or joint conditions. Diathermy is the use of a high-frequency electric current to help stimulate heat generation deep within a targeted tissue. This practice accelerates healing by increasing blood flow and making connective tissue more flexible.*
