Acupuncture Modalities

Here are some other oriental
medical techniques.

During a treatment at Center for Preventive Medicine, one may experience other forms of treatment in addition to acupuncture.

Moxibustion is a procedure wherein a small amount moxa (the herb mugwort) is laid over the skin or on the head of a needle and ignited, causing the heat to stimulate acupoints in the immediate area. Heat lamps may also be used for this purpose.

Cupping is a technique that uses suction to improve circulation and stimulate tissues.

Gua sha and tui na have a similiar effect to cupping but are chinese massage techniques. Patients may experience one or more of these techniques during any given treatment.
