Clara's Acupuncture Clinic Services

Initial Consultation: A detailed history of the patient’s ailment will be taken in order to set a treatment plan best suited to the patient. Acupuncture treatment will be given, as well as diet and lifestyle advice to help with the healing process.
Acupuncture: The use of fine disposable needles will stimulate specific points on the body in order to help the body restore its natural balanced state.

Cupping: refers to an ancient Chinese practice in which a cup is applied to the skin so that the skin and superficial muscle layer is drawn into and held in the cup.  In some cases, the cup may be moved while the suction of skin is active, causing a regional pulling of the skin and muscle. The treatment gives the tissue a deep, quick massage. It breaks down adhesions, and thus helps in blood circulation. Cupping can benefit any painful congested area, bronchitis, swellings, arthritis, low backache, sprains, shoulder tension and more.

Tui Na: a deep tissue massage using different manipulations to stimulate the body energy flow, often incorporated with a acupuncture.

Chinese Food Cures: what works for one person may not for the next. Chinese food cures will help identify diet needs for each individual.
