Why Five Element
Five Element Acupuncture uses a series of gentle protocols to help a person feel more at ease. This ancient theory looks at how Wood, Fire, Earth, Metal, and Water interact in our bodies.
In the 5E style, the needles are gently inserted into specific points and removed right away, making for interactive appointments where we focus on your unique constitution.
In the 5E modality, we activate the point and then take the needle out, like turning a key in the door. The practitioner stays in the room throughout the entire session.
Treatments are tailored to your needs and based the quality of your pulses. Personalized sessions invite your system back to balance over time.
“As the Gorge’s only Five Element practitioner, I am committed to offering compassionate care.”
