Chinese herbs are generally taken in a balanced formula written or recommended by a practitioner. Formulas usually contain between 2 and 15 herbs chosen specifically to balance and enhance each other's qualities. Herbs are intended to address the root cause of the patient's illness, not simply to mask the symptoms.

Cupping is the use of glass, plastic, or silicone cups to create suction on the body. It strongly increases circulation to the area and can help reduce pain, release tight muscles, and break up fascial adhesions. Cupping leaves marks on the body which may last up to 7-10 days.

Moxibustion is the burning of an herb called Mugwort or Artemesia over the body. This is an herb that is taken internally for pain. When it is burned over the body it helps reduce pain, and increases circulation to the area.

Tuina is a vigorous Chinese massage style designed to alleviate pain and tension in the body. Its primary goal is to balance the body's vital energy, known as Qi or Chi. It is often used to alleviate musculoskeletal pain, improve circulation, and promote relaxation.
