Hypnosis can be seen as a waking state of awareness, in which a person’s attention is detached

from his or her immediate environment and is absorbed by inner experiences such as feelings,

cognition and imagery.

Hypnotic induction involves focusing of attention and imaginative involvement to the point

where what is being imagined feels real. By the use and acceptance of suggestions, the clinician

and patient construct a hypnotic reality.

Overview

Cosmetic acupuncture is a branch of traditional Chinese medicine. It stimulates specific meridians and acupuncture points to regulate body functions from the inside out, achieving both beauty and anti-aging benefits. Its core principle is "what exists within manifests itself externally," meaning that facial and skin problems reflect the state of the body's internal organs, qi, and blood.

We’ve been seeing more and more patients with forward head posture – what we often call “anterior carriage.”
This happens when the head shifts forward compared to the shoulders. Even just one inch forward adds about 10 extra pounds of load on your neck and upper back muscles. Imagine holding a bowling ball out in front of you all day – that’s what your neck is doing!

Traditional Chinese Medicine (TCM) is built on the principle that nature and the human body are deeply interconnected. One of its core theories is the Five Elements Theory, which explains how different aspects of the body, emotions, and even personality traits are influenced by the elements Wood, Fire, Earth, Metal, and Water. Understanding these elements can help you achieve better health, emotional balance, and overall well-being.

Yin and Yang are the foundation of Traditional Chinese Medicine (TCM) and represent the dynamic balance that governs all aspects of life, including health, energy, and emotional well-being. This ancient philosophy teaches that harmony between Yin and Yang is essential for maintaining optimal health. When imbalances occur, they can lead to fatigue, stress, digestive issues, and chronic illnesses.

Traditional Chinese Medicine (TCM) is an ancient healing system that has been practiced for over 2,500 years. Rooted in holistic health principles, TCM focuses on restoring balance in the body by using natural treatments such as acupuncture, herbal medicine, cupping therapy, and Qi Gong. Unlike Western medicine, which often targets symptoms, TCM treats the root cause of illness by addressing the body’s energy flow, or Qi (pronounced “chee”).
