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 Waterbury patient’s body with glass cups or bamboo jars. We offer this process as either wet or dry.

Diathermy

Diathermy is a technique involving the production of heat in a part of the body by high-frequency electric currents. This therapy uses heat to stimulate the circulation, relieve pain, destroy unhealthy tissue, or cause bleeding vessels to clot. This therapy is beneficial for Waterbury patients suffering from muscle or joint conditions.*

This Traditional Chinese medicine technique is the use of therapeutic massage and body work to help with disharmony in the body.* It works to manipulate the Qi inside of you while harmonizing your yin and yang to help treat the body as a whole.* Tui Na is an excellent alternative therapy for children as it is non-invasive.
