With your pain relief taken care of, you can bring peace and alignment to your body with one initial and one follow-up session at Midheaven Acupuncture.
Acupuncture works to relieve many health conditions. The number of treatments required to resolve health care issues depends on many factors including how long you have had the condition and its severity. The first treatment typically lasts between 60 and 90 minutes and follow up treatments last 45 to 60 minutes.
At the first treatment you will discuss your general health, focusing on symptoms you experience and in-depth information on your chief complaint(s). Once they complete this 20-30 minute discussion, they will gather more information by inspecting your tongue and feeling the radial pulse in both arms. Acupuncture begins after this intake is completed.
Once the acupuncture needles are inserted, they remain in place for approximately 20 to 30 minutes. As part of your treatment, you may also receive gua sha, cupping, moxa or heat lamp therapy. After the treatment is completed, they will discuss your treatment plan, including how many treatments are needed for maximum efficacy and any lifestyle, dietary or herbal recommendations.

Much Needed Self-Care Package
$200Let's be honest: this past year and a half has been brutal. Relax and let your worries drift away with one free float from Float Sixty. This meditative experience will help you unwind and be present in your float session and beyond!
What is Floating? The relaxation practice of being buoyant in approximately 10 inches of water in a solution of 1,000 pounds of magnesium sulfate, otherwise known as Epsom Salts. Float 60 or 90 minutes - some like it even longer! The temperature of the water is set to the body's normal skin temperature. This practice can be accomplished in a special floatation device like a float pod, a floatation tank or a float room. Some may have heard of a sensory deprivation tank; this is the same type of device as mentioned above.
Getting rid of all sensory input allows the 'constantly-make-sure-you're-not-dying' part of your brain to chill out for a second, allowing the creative, relaxed part of your brain to come out and play. Without the constant pressure of analyzing the world around you, your body lowers its levels of cortisol, the main chemical component of stress. Your brain also releases elevated levels of dopamine and endorphins, the neurotransmitters of happiness.
Once you've floated your cares away, indulge in a delicious 90-minute massage from Amanda Gurtler, LMT at Andersonville Massage. Amanda blends a variety of modalities into a unique, detail-oriented style of massage that is both therapeutic and relaxing. Using strong but sensitive pressure, she often finds her clients dozing off, even as she works deep into their trigger points.
