Acupuncture is an ancient practice integrated into modern Western medicine, providing relief from various ailments by targeting specific points on the body. This holistic approach utilizes sterile filiform needles to promote physical and emotional well-being, facilitating profound changes in the body's energy flow.

Sessions range from 30-120 minutes and can be paired with bodywork like massage, cupping and/or gua sha.

Bodywork at Ascension Acupuncture is a unique fusion of massage techniques that combine philosophies and practices from both the East and West. These services range from 30-120 minutes and are specifically tailored to your individual needs providing transformation and rejuvenation.

Cupping therapy is a Traditional Chinese Medicine technique. It utilizes glass or plastic cups to create a vacuum-like suction over the skin in order to relieve stagnation, improve circulation, promote healing, and alleviate pain, while also addressing issues like anxiety and chronic fatigue. Please note that some bruising may occur, lasting from 2-10 days on average.

Gua Sha is applied to chronic or acute pain conditions to increase microcirculation and unblock areas of qi stagnation. Through increased circulation and free flow of qi, healing is promoted. It is also often used for fever reduction, congestion issues, detox assistance, and menopausal symptoms.

Gua Sha is performed by "scraping" a smooth-edged hand-held tool across the skin. This action increases microcirculation by causing tiny capillaries to burst (much like lifting weights builds muscles by micro-tearing muscle fibers). These bursts leave behind red/purple marks that typically take 2-10 days to heal completely.

This innovative technology warms your body using light, enhancing blood circulation and qi flow, which may alleviate chronic conditions, promote restful sleep, improve skin health, detoxify, and support weight loss efforts.
