ABOUT CALM UNITY:
Acupuncture is a holistic medicine. It views disease mostly as the body’s inability to ward off illness or self-correct an imbalance. Occasionally these imbalances are not readily acknowledged in Western medicine. However they can be understood within holistic medicine. Acupuncture gently brings back balance to the body, restoring its ability to ward off illness and make self-corrections; restoring the calm unity of the body. But the effects of acupuncture go further yet by also restoring serenity and harmony to the mind and emotions. At Calm Unity we don’t simply treat the disease; we take care of the whole person.
Acupuncture patients often get treatments everyday or every other day in China. In scientific studies on acupuncture, patients regularly receive multiple courses of 10 to 12 treatments. Those repeated treatments build on one another resulting in deeper, sustained healing. In order for patients to experience this level of standard treatment we offer Community Acupuncture with flexible rates. Acupuncture is traditionally a community medicine, which in itself conveys healing on another level. More patients get treatments and more patients experience healing. Community Acupuncture is where a patient shares our treatment room with up to 2 other patients. Patients relax in recliners and no clothing is removed since only the most potent points on the head and ears as well as below the elbows and knees are used. These sessions last approximately 30-45 minutes. We offer compassionate and quality professional treatments using: Chinese (deep) or Japanese (gentle) forms of Acupuncture, as well as Auricular Acupuncture, & Orthopedic Acupuncture when appropriate.
We can also offer Private Acupuncture with access to these additional modalities: Chinese Herbal Formulas & Herbal Plasters; Shiatsu & Tui-Nah; Moxibustion, Cupping, Chinese Dietary Therapy, & Qi Gong. These sessions last approximately 1 hour.
