CHRISTINA'S ACUPUNCTURE
The main areas of focus of Christina’s practice are menstrual issues, digestive health, and chronic illnesses, though she welcomes all health concerns.
Her approach involves addressing the symptoms for immediate relief, as well as the root of the issue for improved long term results.
Treatments are performed from a Traditional Chinese Medicine (TCM) perspective.
Christina combines acupuncture, cupping, moxibustion, nutrition, and lifestyle counseling, among other modalities, in order to tailor treatments to each patient’s needs.
