We have made the office is as "green" as possible. There is a lovely auburn countertop made of 100% post-consumer waste recycled paper. Our paper products are made of recycled paper and the paint and carpeting are non-toxic. We serve organic tea and use filtered water.
Our office is comfortable and warm, people often come for a treatment and end up staying a little longer to drink tea and relax. We use single-use needles and maintain a sterile office, ensuring the safety and comfort of our patients.
We have helped many patients on the journey to wellness and good health and look forward to helping you!
