Acupuncture

Acupuncture aims to stimulate different points along the body to help alleviate pain as well as treat a wide range of conditions.

Microneedling
In the quest for timeless beauty, many people are turning to innovative skincare treatments that promote not just a youthful appearance, but overall skin health. One of the most talked-about methods in recent years is microneedling, or collagen induction therapy, a minimally invasive procedure that can help you age gracefully. This skincare technique is the perfect mix of science and artistry, and it can help you defy the signs of aging, improve the appearance of fine lines and wrinkles, reduce hyperpigmentation, and enhance the effectiveness of skincare products. Microneedling is a 100% natural form of treatment, and is suitable for all skin types. It is extremely safe and effective, producing long lasting results, especially when compared to botox and fillers.
Microneedling involves using fine needles to create micro-injuries in the skin. These tiny punctures stimulate the body’s natural healing processes, promoting increased collagen and elastin production. Collagen and elastin are critical proteins that keep our skin firm, smooth, and youthful. As we age, the production of these proteins slows down, leading to wrinkles, sagging, and uneven skin texture. The procedure typically begins with a consultation to assess your skin type and discuss your goals. A topical numbing cream is applied to ensure your comfort during the treatment. Using a specialized device, the practitioner then creates controlled micro-injuries in the skin, encouraging the body to repair itself. The process not only boosts collagen production but also enhances the absorption of topical products, allowing serums and moisturizers to penetrate deeper and work more effectively. This dual action—healing and nourishing—makes microneedling a powerful tool in the fight against aging.
Infrared Sauna
The infrared sauna is a 30 minute session that has many health benefits. Infrared is part of the sun’s invisible spectrum of light that has the ability to penetrate human tissue. Infrared heat therapy uses this characteristic to directly heat the body rather than just the air surrounding it. The infrared heat penetrates the skin giving it a natural warmth. Unlike sunbathing, infrared therapy is completely healthy and safe. You can relax in the sauna knowing that it will never cause your skin to burn. The sauna will also increase the body’s core temperature thus resulting in a much deeper, more detoxifying sweat from the cellular level of the skin where many toxins are stored. The sauna itself is well-ventilated and extremely comfortable. It is a special and calming atmosphere in which to relax and take care of your body. Some of the benefits of infrared therapy are detoxification, pain relief, weight loss, lower blood pressure, improvement of circulation and skin purification.
