Your Different Treatment Options

Acupuncture Services in Norwalk, CT

Traditional Chinese Medicine says that optimal health is a result of a balanced yin and yang, referred to as Qi. When an imbalance disrupts these two forces you may find yourself facing an illness or health issues. We can help realign your energy flow through acupuncture where we will insert tiny, sterile needles into various points in your body which will help balance out your flow.*

Secondary Acupuncture Therapies

Cupping

Another form of oriental medicine is Cupping, which is the process of using small glass or bamboo cups to create suction throughout the body, which helps break up stagnation and any Qi imbalances. Norwalk patients can choose from dry or wet cupping and find relief by creating blood flow in the targeted area.*

Diathermy

Frequently used for physical therapy or rehabilitation, Diathermy is use the use of a high-frequency electric current to help stimulate heat generation deep inside a targeted tissue. This practice can increase blood flow and make connective tissue more flexible, helping to also accelerate healing and can help with muscle and joint conditions.*

Moxibustion

Another form of heat therapy is Moxibustion. This technique has been used for years in traditional Chinese medicine and has helped Norwalk patients generate their Qi energy, maintain general health, and strengthen their blood.
