Japanese Acupuncture

Acupuncture blends Classical TCM and Japanese Meridian Theory with structural and myofascial techniques for the treatment of pain, soft tissue injuries, postural imbalances and other general systemic disorders.Expanding a traditional acupuncture overview to include the physical manifestations of injury i.e. tight muscles and trigger points that are the result of structural imbalances, disease processes, emotional holding patterns and pain, years of chronic constrictions can yield in relatively few sessions.
Acupuncture is used as a "physical therapy" to release the muscular, skeletal and emotional holding patterns that are the root causes of tension, pain, postural assymmetries, the precursors of injury, and the residues of internal disease.
The aim of treatment is to create a harmonious balance within the musculoskeletal and meridian systems that generates healing and promotes overall health and well-being.
Drawing upon the works of Dr. Mark Seem (Acupuncture Physical Medicine), Kiko Matsumoto, Shudo Denmai, the trigger point therapy of Dr. Janet Travell and other traditional practitioners, this method incorporates the best from both eastern and western medical practices.

Acupuncture Ups Memory and Protects Brain Cells

New research reveals that acupuncture prevents brain cell loss in memory areas of the brain. The new laboratory findings also show that acupuncture improves cognition. The researchers note that these findings suggest that acupuncture is a potential treatment for cognitive impairment disorders and Alzheimer’s disease. Acupuncture Needles The new laboratory findings show that acupuncture prevents neuron loss in the hippocampus, an area of the brain responsible for memory and spatial navigation. The hippocampus is one of the first regions of the brain that suffers damage in patients with Alzheimer’s disease. Using the Morris water maze test, the middle-aged mice used in the study who received acupuncture showed significantly less cognitive deficits. The combination of improved maze test results combined with greater preservation of brain neurons prompted the researchers to suggest that acupuncture may help human subjects suffering from cognitive disorders. The researchers note, “Thes...

whispered shadow,

 T he eternal dance between yin and yang. Yin, the whispered shadow, the elusive essence that cradles the soul in its tender embrace. A murmur of quietude, a recess of contemplation, yin resides as the dormant womb from whence all life finds its genesis. And then yang, the unrelenting vitality, the surge of fervor that propels the spirit forth. It blazes in the zenith sun, an unrestrained crescendo of existence. Yang is the crescendo of action, the fervid call to movement and assertion, the pulse of life's heartbeat echoing through the corridors of time. This dance, this ceaseless intertwining, as intricate as the inner workings of the mind, as elaborate as the stories spun through the ages. It is a dance of harmony, where yin and yang find their equilibrium, where the symphony of life attains its most harmonious chord. But equilibrium is a delicate construct, a house of cards perched on the precipice of imbalance. An excess of yang, an untempered fire, or an unchecked yin, a sea o...
