Patient's Attention Please!

Patients with a weak constitution may sometimes feel tired for a day or two after our treatment. It is caused by the treatment's effectiveness which changes the body's  state of non-rest to the state of rest. Once this is over, the patient will feel much better. The same situation applies to feeling inner coolness following a treatment.

Qigong healing: Please wear comfortable, loose clothing.

During Qigong healing, most patients will experience qi sensations such as:

- Mild soreness, numbness, distention, heaviness, pain, warmth, coolness. Sometimes this is accompanied by the sensation of slow, flowing movement or electricity-like movement.

- Sleepiness, mild sweating, body shaking or lifting sensation

After a healing session, please "dry wash" your hands and face to stop the Qigong state. During the cold weather, please wait for five minutes before going outdoors to avoid catching cold.

 

Distance healing: Same as Qigong healing.

 

Acupuncture: Please wear short or loose pants with a short sleeved t-shirt.

During acupuncture treatment, patients will sometimes experience some qi sensations such as:

- Mild soreness, numbness, distention, heaviness, pain, warmth, or coolness. Sometimes it comes with the sensation of slow, flowing movement or electricity-like movement.

Qigong Tuina: Please wear short or loose pants with a short sleeved t-shirt.

During Qigong Tuina treatment, patients will sometimes experience some qi sensations like:

- Mild soreness, numbness, distention, heaviness, pain, warmth, or coolness. Sometimes it comes with the sensation of slow, flowing movement or electricity-like movement.

- Mild sweating, or odor.

After a Qigong Tuina treatment, please take a hot shower within two to three hours. Please flush the treated areas until your skin is pink (usually takes about 20 seconds for each area). In fact, this is part of the treatment. It will expand vessels which enables a larger blood stream to flush the toxic substances just removed from the cells by the treatment. Drinking more hot water is also helpful. If you forget to do so, you might experience some skin pain or soreness for a few days, but it's nothing to be worried about. If you take a shower at a later time, it is still effective, but not as much as a shower that is taken within one to three hours after receiving the treatment.

 

Cupping and Guasha: Please wear short or loose pants with a short sleeved t-shirt.

During these treatments, patients will feel pain to various degrees.

Immediately after treatment, the skin will turn pink, red, or even purple. This is a sign of detoxification. It will disappear in a few days.

 

Essence Tai Chi Instruction: Please wear comfortable, loose clothing.

Group events: Please see our events page.
