Acupuncture
Acupuncture is the use of fine needles inserted at various depths into the skin to affect changes in Qi, simply known as "life force" and blood. The stimulation of these needles helps reduce pain, restore proper function and create balance in the body to ensure optimal health.
PBM/LLLT
PBM/LLLT
Photobiomodulation (PBM) formerly known as Low Level Laser Therapy (LLLT) has been around as an effective treatment method since the 1960's. At the Atlantic Center, we often use PBM/LLLT in a combination treatment with acupuncture to assist in wound healing, skin conditions, soft tissue injury, brain injury and for pain management.
Chinese Herbs
Chinese Herbs
Chinese herbal medicine is highly recommended in conjunction with acupuncture treatments as well as a stand alone treatment. As with acupuncture, we create a Chinese medical diagnosis through assessment of the patient's overall health and any conditions they may be dealing with. We then create a treatment plan incorporating Chinese herbal medicine to assist in continued healing between acupuncture sessions.
Supplements
Supplements
Nutritional supplements are an integral part of a holistic healthcare program. We source and recommend high quality topical and internal products to assist you on the path to wellness.
Allergy Program
Allergy Program
Allergies can be a constant battle for many people young and old. Whether seasonal allergies or pet/food allergies, The Atlantic Center has a needle-free program option to help you become allergy-free.*
Additionally, acupuncture and Chinese herbal medicine are useful treatment options for reducing certain allergic reactions and the signs/symptoms that come with them such as sneezing, digestive upset, headache and brain fog.
*Note: the needle-free allergy program does not cure all allergic reactions. Please contact the center for a consultation to ensure this program is the best treatment option for your particular allergy.
Qi Gong is a movement practice created to help improve overall physical and mental well-being.
The slow gentle movements of qi gong help to warm tendons, ligaments, and muscles; tonify vital organs and connective tissue; and promote circulation of body fluids (blood, synovial, lymph). Studies have shown qi gong to be effective in helping to affect change in many conditions ranging from high blood pressure, to painful joints and mental/emotional stress.
