Our healing toolbox: a blend of ancient wisdom and modern practices.
MODALITIES
A combination of healing modalities are used to create a personalized treatment plan, addressing your current symptoms, the root cause, and creating a long-term preventive plan.
ACUPUNCTURE
Very fine sterile needles are inserted in acupuncture points to balance the energetic structure of the body and produce a physiological healing response. Dr. Leifer's technique is gentle and even pediatric patients don't mind what we call "taps!"
CUPPING/MOXA
Cupping is a traditional adjunct to acupuncture. Through suction with glass or plastic cups, cupping is used to move blood and fluids, increase circulation, relieve pain and boost the immune system. Moxa is an herb burned over acupuncture points to stimulate healing.
HERBS/SUPPLEMENTS
Supplements, vitamins, and herbal medicine also constitute an adjunct treatment, always personalized and grounded in modern evidence as well as traditional wisdom.
NUTRITION
"Food is medicine" is more than a cliche. And since eating whole, unprocessed, and chemical-free foods may not be enough, it's important to know how to harness the deeper healing qualities of foods with personalized nutrition support.
LIFESTYLE
Your lifestyle encompasses all your daily habits - how you move and exercise, how you sleep, the quality of your interpersonal connections, the role of stress in your life, and more. Finding and addressing imbalances helps create long-lasting positive changes.
CLEAN LIVING
Our lives are permeated with chemicals and toxins, affecting many body systems. Knowing how to navigate everything from common household items to beauty products, and especially products intended for children, is crucial for detoxifying your day-to-day life.
