Best Botox Alternative in the Pacific Northwest

Looking 5-15 years younger sounds great, doesn’t it? Let’s see what that involves…

First of all, let’s examine what happens to the skin as we age: Over time, the structure of our collagen begins to break down, skin hydration decreases, and muscle tone weakens. The combination of these factors decreases the elasticity of the skin, allowing gravity to deeply impact us to cause sagging and wrinkling of the skin. This muscle tone loss happens over time, so repeated facial expressions start to hold imprints. The effects are increased lines, wrinkles and folds, loose saggy tissue and an inability to appear calm, relaxed and healthy.

Craniosacral Therapy and Acupuncture

All your muscles, tissues, and organs in your body are suspended in fluid, and this fluid cycles throughout your entire body. Craniosacral Therapy is a gentle form of massage focusing on this fluid flow, to utilize its movement and relieve blockages.

It is very effective at resolving pain, strengthening joints, supporting the spine, relieving headaches, calming the spirit, supporting TMJ pain, and working through emotions.

Health Discovery Acupuncture combines craniosacral therapy with acupuncture to incorporate the body's qi flow (acupuncture-focused) with the body's fluid flow (craniosacral therapy). A deeper, more intuitive, and healing treatment is the result.

The Benefits of Chinese Herbal Medicine

Our acupuncturists at Health Discovery Acupuncture are trained in Chinese herbal medicine. While acupuncture is very effective at balancing the body's qi flow and removing blockages, it is impractical to receive acupuncture every day.

Chinese herbal medicines work with the body overtime to add energy, kick out colds and flu, strengthen organ function, relieve chronic illness or pain, balance hormones, cal the digestive system and improve sleep.

Together, our treatment with acupuncture and Chinese herbs relieves acute symptoms and creates long-term support and protection for the body.
