Needle free Traditional Chinese medicine treatments: cold laser and gua sha

At Lucas Acupuncture I offer needle-free Traditional Chinese Medicine treatments too!

Even though I am both a good and a gentle acupuncturist (ask any of my patients), some people still shy away from needles. For those of you who fit into that category there are cold laser and gua sha.  For pain and/or stiffness I offer gua sha and cold laser treatment.  Cold laser is also used to achieve cosmetic results, i.e., wrinkle reduction and collagen enhancement.  For cold laser cosmetic treatments, I recommend two treatments a week for 6 to 8 weeks. The first treatment cold laser for cosmetic purposes is 45 minutes long ($85); follow up cold laser for cosmetic purposes are 20 - 30 minutes ($40).  
Gua sha feels SO good  it is the ancient art of moving stuck qi and blood (like from an injury) so that the pain goes away. The first treatment of gua sha is 30 to 45 minutes long ($85) with gua sha follow up appointments for pain 20 - 25 minutes ($35).  Cold laser treatments for pain: initial $85, follow up $35.
Cellulite? I offer treatment using essential oils and either cupping or gua sha.  I recommend two treatments a week for 3 to 4 weeks then one a week for a few weeks followed up by about once a month.  Initial treatment is about 45 to 50 minutes long ($85) with followups 15 minutes ($35).

Here is how acupuncture/Chinese medicine can help YOU!

1. Libido flagging?  Not liking your PMS? Hot flashes? Having difficulty conceiving? Acupuncture works for that.  I see both men and women about reproductive health and offer a FREE consult to explain my work.  I can also address the declines that happen with aging (like resurrecting the flagging libido).

2. Getting a few wrinkles?  Acupuncture works for that!  Click here to schedule your FREE consultation with the internationally known age control expert Dr. Martha Lucas, L.Ac.DrMLucas@AcupunctureWoman.com.  Your cosmetic and anti-aging needs can be met with Chinese medicine - the true anti-aging medicine.  The Mei Zen Cosmetic Acupuncture has been featured in O Magazine and is taught to practitioners all over the world who want to offer the patients a safe, effective alternative to injections and plastic surgery.  Use the most natural thing there is for age control: your own body's energy!!

3. ATHLETES: Stamina flagging? Injured? Acupuncture works for that! I'll get you back in the game asap.

WHY AM I ABLE TO GET YOU SUCH GOOD RESULTS?  Because I can give you an expert diagnosis to determine the cause of your symptoms or disease and then TREAT IT!  
Chinese medicine treatment works best when your practitioner KNOWS HOW TO MAKE A DIAGNOSIS. Take it from someone who teaches Chinese medicine students from all over the world - the proper diagnosis leads to more effective treatment.

INSURANCE BILLING: your acupuncture or other Chinese Medicine treatments may be covered by your health insurance.  As a service to you, we find out whether or not your health insurance covers acupuncture and our other therapies and when it does we bill your insurance.  There are plans that cover it, some pay for unlimited visits or enough visits for you to come every other week and be the healthiest employee in your company! Why not be healthier! That's what the insurance company realizes - preventing surgeries, the use of expensive pain killers, and your having to have medical procedures saves them (and you!) money.  Even preventing the common cold saves your employer money.
