Zen Health - Effective Natural Therapies

Zen Health specializes in Traditional Chinese Medicine, however we also offer adjunctive therapies that are incorporated with traditional practices to provide our clients with the best possible treatment available.

CUPPING

Cupping is used to treat disease caused by local congestion. Using a cupping jar, we use a unique technique that gently gathers and sweeps congestion away.
At Zen Health, we use cupping to treat abdominal pain, arthritic pain, stomach ache, headache, indigestion, hypertension, back pain, menstrual cramps, and even the common cold. Cupping can dislodge severe muscle knots and invigorate blood circulation.

GUA SHA

Gua Sha is a skin rubbing technique that removes knotted bloodflow from the body as a means of promoting the metabolic process and healthy circulation. Gua Sha is considered by some to be a critical treatment in the successful resolution of old traumatic injuries.

MOXA

Moxa or Moxibustion uses the power of Chinese herbs and heat to spark vitality within the body. The process entails the burning of cones made from Mugwort plant on areas of the body to accomplish precise healing effects. While this process may sound painful, it is not. During the procedure patients experience gentle warmth from a stick of moxa that is held close to the skin to warm the acupoint. Acupuncture is often used in conjunction with this treatment to stimulate the body. Moxa is used to relieve fatigue, diarrhea, asthma, lower back pain, rheumatic pain, and some gynecological disorders.
