Services
Acupuncture
Acupuncture stimulates specific points on the body to harmonize energy flow and improve health. This ancient practice enhances blood circulation, reduces inflammation, and promotes natural healing processes. Patients benefit from personalized treatment plans addressing chronic pain, stress, and systemic imbalances through precise needle placement.
Herbal Medicine
Custom herbal prescriptions combine thousands of years of medicinal knowledge with modern clinical practice. We create tailored formulations using high-quality ingredients to address individual health needs, supporting immune function and internal balance without pharmaceutical side effects through carefully prepared decoctions and capsules.
Cosmetic Acupuncture
This specialized treatment uses micro-needling techniques to stimulate collagen production and improve skin texture. By enhancing local circulation and energy flow, we address fine lines, puffiness, and skin tone irregularities. Regular sessions promote cellular renewal, offering natural facial rejuvenation without invasive procedures.
Thai Yoga Massage
Thai massage combines rhythmic stretching and pressure point stimulation to release muscular tension and improve flexibility. This therapeutic practice clears energy blockages along traditional meridians, enhancing circulation and promoting deep relaxation through guided yoga-like movements performed on comfortable floor mats.
Pain Management
Our integrative approach combines acupuncture, cupping therapy, and herbal medicine to address chronic pain conditions. By targeting both symptoms and underlying imbalances, we help reduce inflammation, improve mobility, and restore normal function for patients with musculoskeletal and neurological pain conditions.

Report
I have been coming to this clinic on and off for years now. I wanted to save my review until I got a full picture of the treatment offered here. It began with chronic migraines and since treatment, I have not had any spells. Going on two years migraine free. I have suffered chronic migraines since 2002 and will get them in clusters once to twice a year that can last up to 40 days.
John is extremely knowledgeable with the human body and the mechanics. I am currently getting muscle tension therapy and so far very happy with the results. Highly recommended Avalon Clinic. 5*
