Do you desire to look more radiant and feel more physically balanced?  

Cosmetic Acupuncture treatments are gaining popularity in Hollywood and around the world – even Kim Kardashian benefits regularly from this effective procedure.  Cosmetic Acupuncture is an effective, natural, and safe way to brighten the skin, reduce age spots, lift sagging areas, and fill in wrinkles.  Each session at Source Empowered Wellness includes body points which in addition to the facial points, can also help to clear sinuses, boost energy, restore healthy sleeping patterns, lose weight, de-stress the mind/ body/ spirit, regulate hormones, reduce acne, improve digestion and immunity.

Acupuncture is part of a holistic medicine called Traditional Chinese Medicine (TCM) which regards beauty in the multi-dimensional lens of mind, body, and spirit.  By treating the skin, we also encourage the radiance of your spirit and clarity of your mind to shine through into your life as well.

We’ve all been there: that feeling of “stuckness”, that feeling of dredging up the motivation to start the day or maybe we feel like you’ve been attracting the same circumstance or type of relationship pattern in your life for way too long!  Shamanism has a rap for being, quite simply, “weird.”  What’s with the feathers and smoke?  Can someone singing at me really help me?

Does Acupuncture Help You Lose Weight?

At Source Empowered Wellness, we often get asked if acupuncture can help one lose weight. The answer is yes and it’s a holistic method that harmonizes your whole body.  Any all-natural method requires your personal commitment to lifestyle changes and a positive attitude.  And the side effects are all positive too:  increased energy and enhanced mood, better circulation, decreased cravings, better sleep – the list goes on!  Traditional Chinese Medicine (TCM), of which acupuncture is a part, believes lifestyle is a huge part of our health because the spirit (shen), or presence, connects the mind and body.  This is why we say “Follow Your Heart” because intuitively we can feel what is right for us.

Sciatica

Talk about a pain in the butt!  In all seriousness, sciatica can be an extremely debilitating condition.  At Source Empowered Wellness, we treat many people with sciatica successfully using acupuncture and sometimes other adjunctive treatments like cupping, moxa, and infrared heat lamp.  Depending on the severity and length of time with the sciatic symptoms, one can get substantial resolution from acupuncture within 2-6 treatments.  Once we determine the root cause of the sciatica, we will also address that root cause which may be a bulging disc, disc dehydration, or postural/ movement associated.
