When we design a treatment plan for you, we'll customize it to your individual needs using one or more of the following modalities:

Acupuncture

Barely larger than a cat’s whisker or human hair, tiny, sterile needles are inserted at precise points on the body (acupoints). The goal of acupuncture is to eliminate pain, rebalance the flow of blood and oxygen and restore the body’s natural healing ability so that the body can return to a state of balance and harmony. Learn more about how Acupuncture works here.

Mei Zen Cosmetic Acupuncture

The Mei Zen Cosmetic Acupuncture System utilizes an ancient needling technique that helps to reduce fine lines as well as lift, tighten and tone the face, neck and abdomen. The needling brings increased energy and blood to the face and can improve or increase the production of collagen and elastin. Mei Zen cosmetic acupuncture is a natural and healthy way to help you achieve a more youthful and beautiful look as well as help you attain your weight loss goals. Learn more about Mei Zen Cosmetic Acupuncture here.

PSYCH-K®

PSYCH-K® is a self-empowering process which identifies and changes subconscious beliefs that perpetuate old habits and behaviors that no longer serve you. Learn more about PSYCH-K® here.

Delta Pulse

Delta Pulse uses PEMF (Pulsed Electro-Magnetic Field) technology which stimulates the same acupoints as does acupuncture. It is non-invasive and pain free with long lasting results and no side effects. It has been widely used on athletes and everyday people around the world for years and treats a wide variety of conditions, such as any range of motion issue, chronic back, neck, shoulder or knee pain, arthritic conditions and even poor circulation.

Ion Cleanse Foot Bath

Today we are exposed to the greatest toxic load in the history of our planet. Tissue waste along with chemical and heavy metal residues build up in the body faster than ever. The Ion Cleanse Foot Bath is one of the most relaxing ways to rid your body of the toxins present. While relaxing for 40 minutes with your feet dipped in a container of warm water, the toxins are pulled from your body as a result of the positive and negative ions in the water. The Foot Bath provides an efficient way to maintain high energy levels and long term wellness.

Massage Therapy

Therapeutic massage is the manipulation of the muscles and tissues of the body to prevent and alleviate pain, discomfort, and stress. It is received weekly for chronic health conditions such as headaches or back pain or biweekly for wellness care.

Herbal and Nutritional Therapies

Ancient herbs or nutraceuticals can be used to help rebalance the body and may be used as a primary treatment modality. In addition, herbs and/or nutraceuticals are often suggested to help the body maintain long-term wellness.

Diet Therapy

Ancient wisdom dictates that disharmonies in the body can be cured by eating the proper foods. Appropriate foods may be suggested in order to restore health and support longevity.

Assessment Tools

Medical Thermal Imaging or Thermography Screening

Medical Thermal Imaging is a totally safe, non-radiation, non-contact and low-cost means to measure the quantity and patterns of heat emitted from the human body. The higher the temperature, the more inflammation found in the body. Thermography is used most often to identify breast disease approximately 7-10 years earlier than more traditional mammography. Learn more about Thermography here.

AcuGraph

AcuGraph brings acupuncture into the 21st century with technology that allows us to analyze and document the energetic status of your acupuncture meridians using a computerized device. The AcuGraph allows patients to watch their body improve over the course of their treatments. Nature's Balance Acupuncture uses AcuGraph to track the effectiveness of your acupuncture treatment.

Hair Analysis

Hair analysis is a test in which a sample of a person's hair—typically from the back of the neck—is sent to a laboratory for measurement of its mineral content. The hair analysis provides a mineral blueprint of one’s biochemistry and can provide pertinent information about your metabolic rate, energy levels, sugar and carbohydrate tolerance, stage of stress, immune system and glandular activity.

Saliva Hormone Testing

Saliva Hormone Testing is an accurate and simple way to assess the current levels of circulating hormones in the bloodstream, such as estradiol, progesterone, testosterone, DHEA, cortisol, etc., in the body. In addition, stool specimens can be analyzed to identify food intolerances and parasites.
