chinese medicine & acupuncture
The nature-based philosophy of chinese medicine restores the mind &body to a harmonious state of being so that one may live a life full of ease within themselves.
We can achieve this by balancing the yin-yang energies of the body through the meridian systems and the organ energetics. Techniques used include herbal medicine, acupuncture, tuina, cupping, guasha and moxibustion.
chinese herbal medicine
Chinese herbal medicine is a widely studied, highly effective form of medicine that dates back over 3500 years. Keshia practices a lineage-based method from 2000 years ago that uses small, focused formulas to treat not only the disease, but the overall constitution of the patient. The clinical evidence of this lineage of formulas comes from numerous successful case studies of both modern and ancient doctors.
massage, craniosacral & visceral manipulation
Craniosacral techniques can help release a deeply held pattern in the fascia & nervous system. Visceral manipulation is a myo-fascial technique used to release adhesions in the abdomen and around the organs. Both techniques are very affective at addressing a wide range of concerns - scars, birth traumas (c-sections, uterine tears), digestive issues, long held tension, whiplash, concussions - to name a few.
