Laser Acupuncture
Laser therapy is a non-invasive, pain-free, light-based therapy that uses red and infrared light to target inflamed, injured and diseased tissues. The light source is placed in contact with the skin allowing the photon energy to penetrate tissue, where it interacts with various intracellular biomolecules resulting in the restoration of normal cell function and enhancement of the body’s healing processes. Photons of light stimulate ATP production, thereby accelerating the healing process.

Maya Abdominal Massage and Holistic Pelvic Care - Provided by Renee Warner RN
Maya Abdominal Therapy is an external massage technique that guides internal abdominal organs into their proper position (with a focus on aligning the uterus) for optimum health and well-being. Maya massage improves organ function by releasing physical and emotional congestion from the abdomen. This improves the flow of chi and fluids of the circulatory, lymphatic, and nervous systems to prevent symptoms and chronic disease.
$185 for 75 minutes session
Office Policies
Your appointment time has been reserved especially for you, which prevents others from accessing the services at that particular time. Therefore, 24 hours cancellation notice is required or a no-show fee equivalent to the full session fee will be charged -- except in the case of an emergency.
If you have extended medical coverage, we ask that you pay Acubalance directly at the time of treatment as we do not bill insurance companies. If your extended health care plan covers receiving acupuncture from an R.Ac or Dr. TCM (Registered Acupuncturist), you can submit your receipt for reimbursement to them.
For naturopathic services check if your plan covers naturopathic physicians (ND)
