Acupuncture Treatment
Adult treatments are 1 hour in length. They are painless and quite relaxing; many people fall asleep on the table.
The doctor's treatment strategy and point selection are based on diagnostic tests and what you are coming in for, plus your current health history, several diagnostic tests, and other relevant information that may be needed.
Please remember this is a "Holisitic" medicine, which means we are VERY thorough and we do not rush you through anything.
Before you begin your treatments, there are a few basic steps that need to be completed.
AcuPoint Therapy for Kids & Babies (and those who prefer"no needles")
AcuPoint Therapy treatments are 30-45 minutes in length -- depending on the age of the child and their level of cooperation. Babies are the most sensitive and the points stimulate change more quickly, so the treatment time will be shorter.
Most kids love the treatments and find them very relaxing. They also enjoy participating in the process of choosing which "tool" will be used each time.
There is a required 1 hour initial evaluation where the doctor will gather the necessary treatment information from diagnostic tests and health history.
Holistic Nutrition
Consultation
"Let food be thy medicine, and medicine be thy food."
-- Hippocrates
Food should always be our first medicine -- and we can supplement and support gut health and healing with probiotics, herbs and acupuncture. If our gut is happy, life is good -- and we feel good!
Nourishment has always been an integra; part of both Chinese and Ayurvedic Medicine. Dr. Raven has been trained in both western and eastern nutrition (over 300 hours). And she prefers to use the word "nourishment" as it is more inclusive and holistic.
A nourishment consult is free if you are already an acupuncture patient, but can also be a separate service.
Back to Balance and/or Yoga Therapy Session
Back to Balance Yoga therapy sessions are for anyone seeking a more "active" form of self-healing. These sessions are very effective for pain management -- especially neck/low back issues -- but can also work well with arthritis and other inflammatory conditions. It is a great modality for stress relief and management.
Drawing from her therapeutic yoga, Ayurveda, meditation and breathwork training, Dr. Raven will create a custom healing regimen for you to practice at home.
Modifications and supportive props are offered for all poses and movements. We meet you where you are at and work slowly and gently to help you move forward.
