Your Different Treatment Options

Acupuncture Services in Washington, CT

A healthy body is dependent on a balance in the flow of energetic forces known, in Traditional Chinese Medicine, as yin and yang, or Qi energy. By inserting thin, sterile needles into some, or many, of the hundreds of acupuncture points in the body, acupuncture can help heal the body by aligning and balancing these forces out.*

Secondary Acupuncture Therapies

Cupping

Cupping is a method of stimulating the flow of energy, as well as blood flow, in order to relieve soreness or pain in a specific area. This is done by placing heated glass, or bamboo, cups over the affected area in order to create a vacuum seal that breaks up stagnation and promotes the healing process. This process can be done with wet cups, as well as dry cups depending on the needs of our Washington patients.*

Diathermy

Diathermy can help residents of Washington in relieving muscle and joint pain. This form of therapy works by sending high-frequency electric currents into deep tissues in order generate heat within deep tissue. This procedure can help alleviate pain by removing damaged tissue, promoting flexibility, and increasing blood flow in order to accelerate the healing process.*

Moxibustion

Moxibustion is a technique in Traditional Chinese Medicine that makes use of an herb called mugwort. By burning mugwort over the affected area, Washington patients may be able to experience relief from the resulting stimulation of blood flow.*

Tui Na

Sophia Natural Health Center also offers a type of therapeutic massage called Tui Na. This technique based in Traditional Chinese Medicine stimulates and manipulates the flow of Qi throughout the body, much like acupuncture. In many cases it may be used as a substitute for acupuncture in situations where acupuncture is not possible. For example, people who are afraid of needles may prefer this method.*

Dietary Therapy in Washington, CT

Sophia Natural Health Center also offers access to Dietary Therapy, also known as Chinese Dietary Therapy, in order to help manage our Washington patient’s nutritional intake. In this way, we can help our patients manage their condition through their diet to fit their personalized health plans.*

This could be for the purpose of losing weight in order to alleviate symptoms of your condition, but can also mean filling in gaps of nutritional deficiency. Mainly, however, this is a process of managing the intake of your food to reach and maintain balance in your yin and yang energies.*
