Your Different Treatment Options
Acupuncture Services in Seymour, CT
Good health is the result of Qi, the harmonious balance of yin and yang, according to Traditional Chinese Medicine.*An imbalance of these two forces may result in the illnesses you experience.* Your Qi will flow through hundreds of acupuncture points in the body. Our founder, Dr. Kenneth Hoffman, has alleviated the conditions of thousands of patients using techniques like acupuncture from Traditional Chinese Medicine.
Secondary Acupuncture Therapies
Cupping
Cupping therapy is an ancient form of alternative medicine in which a therapist puts special cups on your skin for a few minutes to generate suction. A part of Oriental medicine, cupping is the process of creating a vacuum seal on a Seymour patient’s body with glass cups or bamboo jars. We offer this process as either wet or dry.
Diathermy
This form of therapy works by sending high-frequency electric currents in order to generate heat within deep tissue. Frequently used for physical therapy or rehabilitation, this practice can make connective tissue more flexible with increased blood flow which accelerates the healing.*
Moxibustion
Moxibustion helps Seymour patients strengthen their blood, stimulate the flow of Qi and maintain general health.* It’s a traditional Chinese medicine technique that involves the burning of mugwort, a small, spongy herb to facilitate healing.
Tui Na
A form of bodywork based on the principles of Traditional Chinese Medicine (TCM). Working along meridians (energy channels) throughout the body, the Tui Na practitioner taps into a patient’s energy points in order to treat their diagnosis. This option is great for children or people who have a fear of needles.
