🏥 FAQs by Condition
Acupuncture & Pharmacopuncture

Cupping & Physical Therapy
Cupping Therapy
Yes. Cupping on the cervical spine and trapezius clears blood stasis and releases muscle tension, effectively easing neck and shoulder pain.
Herbal Medicine
Herbal Medicine
Herbal medicine reduces inflammation around the cervical spine and improves circulation, supporting natural resorption of the disc. It also helps strengthen muscle and ligament.
Chuna Therapy
Chuna Therapy
The cervical spine is an area we approach with particular caution. Very rarely, sudden thrusting manipulation of the neck has been reported in association with vertebral artery injury, so we give priority to gentle techniques. If you have high blood pressure, arteriosclerosis, a history of neck vascular disease, or dizziness, visual disturbance or severe headache, please tell us in advance.
Cost & Insurance
Cost & Insurance
