Acupuncture
Acupuncture is a 3,000 year-old branch of holistic Eastern medicine that has been used to help millions of people find health and wellness by activating the natural, self-healing abilities of the body.
Acupuncture is the insertion of very thin needles in specific points on the body to balance the flow of the body’s energy (Qi). Acupuncture needles are very thin, thereby permitting a nearly painless insertion.
Cold Laser Acupuncture
Cold Laser Acupuncture is painless and uses a Low Level, Cold Laser to stimulate acupressure points instead of using needles. Don't like needles? This is a fantastic alternative. This treatment is so relaxing that many people fall asleep during their treatment.
This is often used with stress relief and addiction treatment as well. In addition, laser paddles are also used for pain treatment and weight loss treatments. Dr Aitken specializes in the use of low level laser therapy for various modalities.
Cupping
Cupping is a Traditional Chinese treatment that uses suctioned glass cups on the skin. Cupping is excellent for reducing back and neck pain, improving circulation and digestion, and reducing muscle spasms and stress.
This treatment is also used to improve the body’s ability to ward off a cold and expel phlegm once a cold has set in. Cupping is typically combined with an acupuncture treatment, but may be done alone.
Herbal Remedies
Often, for minor health concerns, concentrated nutrients & lifestyle modifications may improve your condition tremendously. However, there are instances in which a person may need more support, or are looking to resolve their problem in a shorter period of time. Herbal medicine can often allow a person to address the symptoms and underlying imbalances simultaneously. Unlike prescription medications that merely cover up symptoms, and often cause deleterious side effects, the use of herbal medicine may improve your health long term.
Traditional herbal medicine has been in use for over 3,000 years. There are over 7,000 herbs identified and about 400 of these are commonly used in the United States. Herbal formulas treat a variety of ailments and are an essential adjunct to any acupuncture treatment. Herbal & nutritional supplements and changes in your diet may alleviate or eliminate your ailment. An herbal & dietary prescription will be formulated specifically for your needs.
Moxabustion
Moxabustion utilizes traditional herbs to warm acupuncture points. The herbs are held over multiple acupuncture points until a warm sensation is perceived. This treatment is especially beneficial for arthritis pain, stiff joints, low energy, diarrhea, and infertility. Moxa may be performed with or without acupuncture.
Client Testimonials
Dr. Lara is amazing! Since quarantine, I have had a lot of anxiety and my blood pressure has been higher than normal. Dr. Lara was very informative before my treatment and my acupuncture session was surprisingly very relaxing. It’s been over 2 weeks now and I’ve been feeling so much better. Most importantly, my BP levels are lower! I’ll definitely be back in a month. Thank you so much!
Aimee Arsua
I started seeing Dr Aitken for Fibromyalgia, Carpel Tunnel, and High Blood Pressure.
My pain level has decreased by 70% and my blood pressure has stabilized.
Through both traditional acupuncture and cold low level laser therapy, Dr Aitken has improved my quality of life.
Melissa Morgan
I initially saw Doctor Aitken because of carpal tunnel and I heard that acupuncture could help. Regular sessions completely eliminated the pain. After that, I saw Dr Aitken on a wellness and life coaching plan.
She is helping me with my business and using hypnosis to aid me in weight loss. So far, so good. I enjoy that I can have so many services performed here. It’s been a game changer for my health and my business.
