ACUPUNCTURE & TRADITIONAL CHINESE MEDICINE

TREATMENT EXPLAINED

Acupuncture improves circulation of blood throughout the body, which oxygenates the tissues, facilitating metabolic processes and eliminates waste chemicals. The calming nature of acupuncture also decreases heart rate, balances blood pressure, relaxes the muscles, improves sleep quality, is indeed a powerful treatment reducing stress, depression and anxiety, improves emotional health, and strengthens the effects of other treatments.

Besides offering you the full range of traditional Chinese medicine treatments, Kanita is happy to guide and assist you in the following 3 specialty areas:

More powerful Detox:
In a world rife with many environmental toxins the body is not naturally prepared to deal with, combining acupuncture treatment with a detoxification protocol is often the best answer. When the body is balanced, it functions efficiently to purge toxins. Acupuncture can also increase the efficacy of any diet, supplement and herbal treatment.

Weight management:
Acupuncture can power up any other weight control strategy by curbing appetite, reduce cravings, boosting metabolism, improving digestion, help toning the muscle and cellulite issue, regulating obesity-related hormones and enhancing the way nutrients are used. It also strengthens the function of the liver, the organ that produces chemicals critical for digestion, processing nutrients and breaking down of fats. Acupuncture may also increase tone in the smooth muscle of the stomach to help people know that they are full.

Facial Rejuvenation Acupuncture:
Facial rejuvenation is a good alternative for anyone who doesn’t want the side effects associated with the conventional/chemical treatments – all with visible results. It helps your own body to create a more youthful appearance by improving your energy from the inside out. Beauty isn’t just about the face, it’s about the whole body.

Any session will include a custom tailored combination of the following modalities:
Acupuncture: is the stimulation of points along energy meridians
Cupping: a treatment where local suction is created, utilizing glass cups
Moxibustion: is the application of heat to either body parts or acupoints with various effects
Gua-sha: a treatment in which the skin is “scraped” to produce better circulation and healing
Microcurrent therapy: also known as the “needle-less acupuncture” – treats a wide range of pain, reduces inflammation and strengthens the cells and tissues.

A balanced treatment is not just the skilled application of a healing technique but to an equal part the personal connection, interaction and guidance you receive. This is vital in every session and is often the trigger for true healing.
