Acupuncture

A conversation begins before the needles do. The intake is long enough to understand the whole picture — not just where the problem has settled, but how long it's been there and what else has shifted around it.

Pain, sleep, digestion, cycles, fatigue — the classical system doesn't file these separately. The intake draws them into the same picture. What comes out of that conversation shapes everything: where the needles go, in what sequence, what else is brought in. Treatment isn't applied to a symptom. It's calibrated to a pattern.

The sensation, for most people, is less than expected. A brief awareness of arrival, sometimes warmth or a heaviness that feels earned. Most people rest deeply once they're in, that rest is part of the treatment.

What people come in with

Acute and chronic pain.
Headaches that have become routine.
Stress that stopped feeling like stress a while ago.
Sleep that comes but doesn't restore.
Digestion that's been off long enough to feel normal.
Cycles that have shifted or never regulated.
Fatigue that sits underneath everything.
A body that's been through something and hasn't quite come back to normal.

First appointments and long-standing conditions both have a place here.

A symptom is where the body is asking for attention — not necessarily where the work begins.

Beyond the needles
Tuina

Classical manual bodywork following the same logic as the needles — applied with the hands after treatment, working the same channels.

Kung Fu Co. Topicals

Made in-house from the same martial arts tradition. Used during treatment and applied where the work has been — available to support the work between sessions.

Om \ Wave

Spatial sound design, custom built for the treatment room. Twelve speakers surrounding the table, recorded in Dolby Atmos. Present in the community clinic and one dedicated private room. Designed and recorded by the practitioner.

Two ways to be seen
Private Sessions

Initial private sessions run ninety minutes — enough time for a full intake, hands-on work, and whatever the presentation requires. Follow-up sessions are sixty minutes.

Community Clinic

The community clinic operates on a sliding scale and is designed for consistent, ongoing care. Sessions are clothed, shorter, and focused on distal points — from the elbows and knees down, the ears, the scalp. A complete classical approach in its own right. For some patients it's where they start. For others it becomes the primary way they maintain what private sessions have established. Consistency shouldn't be a financial decision.
