Ear seeds: Ear seeds are seeds from the Vaccaria plant that are placed on specific points on the ear. Once in the ear they are self-massaged for 3-5 days providing acupressure to support the effects of acupuncture in between sessions.
 

 Cupping: Cupping is commonly used to relieve muscle tension and alleviate pain. The localized suction created by the cups helps lift and separate tight muscle tissue and fascia which helps increase blood flow and decrease pain and tension.
 

 Gua Sha (Dermal Friction): Gua Sha is a technique that uses a smooth-edged tool to gently scrape the skin to the point of redness. Gua sha helps release stagnant energy (qi) in the body by improving blood flow to tight areas.
 

 E-Stim (Electrical Stimulation): E-Stim is a mild electrical current that passes between acupuncture needles in gentle pulses to certain acupuncture points in order to enhance pain relief. E-Stim is great for chronic pain, muscle spasms, sports injuries and more.
