Acupuncture is a well-known therapy that has been used for centuries to promote healing and relieve pain. Our skilled acupuncturists use tiny needles to stimulate specific points on the body, which helps to balance the body's energy flow and promote healing. Acupuncture can be used to treat a variety of conditions, including chronic pain, anxiety, and digestive issues.
Moxibustion is a therapy that involves burning dried mugwort on or near the skin to stimulate circulation and promote healing. This therapy can be used to treat a variety of conditions, including arthritis, digestive issues, and menstrual cramps. At Riverside Acupuncture, we offer both direct and indirect moxibustion techniques to meet the unique needs of our patients.
Zheng Gu Tui Na is a form of Chinese medical massage that involves pressing, rubbing, and kneading the muscles and joints to help release tension and promote healing. This therapy can be especially effective for conditions such as arthritis and fibromyalgia, where chronic pain and stiffness are common.
Gua Sha and Graston Technique are both forms of soft tissue mobilization that involve scraping the skin with a special tool to help break up adhesions and promote circulation. These therapies can be especially effective for conditions such as neck and back pain, where muscle tension and tightness are common.
Cupping is a therapy that involves the use of suction cups to create a vacuum on the skin. This suction can help to increase circulation, relieve muscle tension, and promote healing. Cupping can be used to treat a wide range of conditions, including respiratory issues, muscle pain, and digestive issues.
