Every person is unique and every patient requires a unique treatment. After an Initial Oriental Medical Examination, we determine what will be the most efficient and most effective treatment. At the Wahls of Wellness, we offer treatments that incorporate the major branches of Oriental Medicine:

Acupuncture
Each treatment plan is individualized. Acupuncture treatment depends on the type of illness, its severity and duration, and the physical state of the patient at the time of treatment. A series of 5-10 treatments may provide relief care for some problems, but often chronic and degenerative conditions may require many treatments overtime. To help reduce the number of treatments, we may suggest dietary and life-style modifications, specific exercise regimens, relaxation techniques, self-massage, and/or Chinese Herbal Medicines, all of which help increase the efficacy of acupuncture.

Chinese Herbal Medicine
We use the highest quality herb granules available and compose individualized formulas for our patients.

Chinese Herbal Medicine has been used as front line medicine by the majority of the world’s population since before recorded history, and is still the most widely utilized medical system in the world today. Adverse reactions to Chinese herbs are extremely rare and are negligible when compared to those commonly produced by pharmaceutical drugs.

Oriental Nutrition Counseling
We provide education on lifestyle and healthy eating modifications based upon the principles of Chinese Medicine.

Oriental Massage
Tui Na,the ancient art of acupressure massage designed to treat various conditions, is used when appropriate. The application of liniments and essential oils may be offered.

Healing Meditation Treatments and Workshops
We incorporate guided imagery and healing visualizations to help cultivate healthy breathing and healing internal energy.

Feng Shui Education
The placement of furniture and objects, the choice of colors and decor, all make up the ambiance of a room. Some rooms, some homes, some offices, just “feel” better than others. All of us have a psychological or emotional response to a room we enter. That is the perspective from which we view Feng Shui. Is the space in which we live or work healthy and conducive to feeling good? Does the flow of Qi (energy) in the space feel positive or negative? Sometimes, the lifestyle, living conditions, or working conditions of a patient may be counterproductive to the treatment. When appropriate we will make Feng Shui recommendations. The recommendation may be as simple as a dehumidifier in a basement home office, or a more thorough consultation if necessary.
