WHAT IS ACUPUNCTURE
Acupuncture stands alone as a complete system of the practice of Tradition Chinese Medicine (TCM). Acupuncture and TCM is well documented in China, and scholars argue this medicine is 5,000 years old, but indeed it is much older that that. Acupuncture opens-up and accesses your body’s intrinsic intelligence called Qi (energy field, quantum EMF field, neuroplastic network) with the insertion of very fine needles into your acu-points. These acupuncture points are also considered accumulated energy vortices found throughout your physical body, are always balancing/rebalancing and very alive just like your heart is always beating, whether you are conscious about it or not. By receiving an acupuncture treatment, the practitioner is simply the facilitator, opening a safe yet powerful opportunity for healing, allowing for the client to connect to their sub-conscious state. In this space of rest and relaxation, during an acupuncture treatment, the action-potential of the client’s ever-present natural ability to self-heal can be potentiated. Remember, healing is a journey, not a state of arrival. It is within this understanding one can allow their conscious mind to receive the lessons of a remembrance that the body is always designed to heal, to rejuvenate, and to find balance once again, and under any circumstance.
WHAT CAN ACUPUNCTURE TREAT?
The better question is, “What doesn’t acupuncture treat?” Acupuncture treats the soul, the individual, not the disease or disorder. Remember to be in ‘dis-ease’ means your body is not ‘at ease.” TCM approaches physical, emotional, or mental pathology as one. Your physical-psychological evolution is over 4.5 million years evolved, meaning that your body is highly intelligent. Your body intelligently speaks to your mind and soul when something is not quite right, or if you haven’t been listening to yourself. Compared to Allopathic medicine, in TCM we listen to the symptoms whether physical, emotional, mental, or spiritual, and work with the client to bridge the gap between the conscious mind and what the body is trying to convey to you. Most unresolved pathology, within the TCM paradigm, is due to the rational-thinking mind (the conscious mind) that has been conditioned to forget how to communicate with your own physical and emotional bodies. Acupuncture can help reprogram the body and mind to reconnect your soul back to your divine purpose and reason for why you chose to incarnate here and now.

ABOUT KIIKO ACUPUNCTURE
Kiiko Matsumoto Style (KMS), or Kiiko Japanese Acupuncture, is a specialized approach to acupuncture that is based on the teachings and techniques developed by Kiiko Matsumoto, a well-known Japanese acupuncturist. This style is deeply rooted in traditional Japanese acupuncture and incorporates both modern insights and classical Chinese medicine principles.
Key Features of Kiiko Japanese Acupuncture:
Kiiko Matsumoto Style (KMS), or Kiiko Japanese Acupuncture, is a specialized approach to acupuncture that is based on the teachings and techniques developed by Kiiko Matsumoto, a well-known Japanese acupuncturist. This style is deeply rooted in traditional Japanese acupuncture and incorporates both modern insights and classical Chinese medicine principles.
Key Features of Kiiko Japanese Acupuncture:
- Palpation-Based Diagnosis:
- One of the most distinctive features of Kiiko Japanese Acupuncture is its emphasis on palpation. The practitioner uses touch to assess the body, particularly the abdomen (Hara) and specific reflex points, to identify areas of sensitivity or tension. These areas guide the diagnosis and treatment strategy.
- Reflex Zones:
- Kiiko Matsumoto's method focuses on specific reflex zones on the body that correspond to various internal organ systems and health conditions. By pressing these zones, the practitioner can gather information about the patient's overall health and identify areas that need treatment.
- Instant Feedback:
- This style of acupuncture is highly interactive. The practitioner constantly checks for immediate feedback from the patient during the treatment. For example, after needling or pressing a point, the practitioner may re-palpate the area to see if the pain or sensitivity has decreased, adjusting the treatment as needed.
- Gentle Needling Technique:
- Kiiko Japanese Acupuncture often employs a gentle needling technique, which can be particularly appealing to patients who are sensitive or fearful of needles. The needles are typically inserted shallowly and with minimal discomfort.
- Treatment Focus:
- Treatments are highly individualized and focus on treating both the root cause of the condition and the presenting symptoms. This method is effective for a wide range of conditions, including chronic pain, digestive issues, hormonal imbalances, and stress-related disorders.
- Integrative Approach:
- Kiiko Matsumoto's style integrates aspects of Western medicine and diagnostics into traditional acupuncture, allowing for a holistic approach to treatment that considers the patient's entire health picture.
- Precision: The use of palpation allows for highly accurate diagnosis and targeted treatment.
- Immediate Results: Patients often experience relief during the session itself, thanks to the real-time feedback mechanism.
- Gentle Treatment: The technique is less invasive and more comfortable, making it suitable for a wide range of patients, including those who are needle-phobic.
- Holistic Care: The approach treats the whole person, not just the symptoms, promoting overall well-being.

Tuina is used to treat a variety of musculoskeletal and internal conditions by manipulating the body’s energy (Qi) and promoting balance and health.
Key Features of Tuina:
- Manual Techniques:
- Tuina involves a range of hands-on techniques, including pushing, grasping, kneading, rolling, pressing, and stretching. Practitioners use their hands, fingers, elbows, and sometimes knees to apply pressure to specific points on the body, similar to acupressure.
- Meridian and Acupoint Focus:
- Like acupuncture, Tuina targets the body's meridians and acupoints to stimulate the flow of Qi (energy) and blood. The goal is to remove blockages and restore harmony within the body.
- Holistic Approach:
- Tuina is often used in conjunction with other TCM practices, such as acupuncture, herbal medicine, and qigong, to provide a holistic approach to health. It treats not just the symptoms but also the root cause of the condition.
- Therapeutic Applications:
- Tuina is effective for a wide range of conditions, particularly those involving musculoskeletal pain (such as back pain, neck pain, and joint issues), sports injuries, and stress-related disorders. It can also be used to address internal conditions like digestive problems, headaches, and insomnia.
- Customizable Treatments:
- Each Tuina session is tailored to the individual's specific needs, based on a TCM diagnosis. The practitioner may combine different techniques and adjust the intensity of the treatment according to the patient's condition and comfort level.
- Relaxation and Well-Being:
- While Tuina is a therapeutic treatment, it also promotes relaxation and general well-being. It helps to reduce stress, improve circulation, and enhance the body’s natural healing processes.
- Pain Relief: Tuina is highly effective for relieving chronic pain, tension, and stiffness in muscles and joints.
- Improved Circulation: By stimulating the flow of Qi and blood, Tuina helps improve circulation, which is beneficial for overall health.
- Stress Reduction: The techniques used in Tuina can calm the nervous system, helping to alleviate stress and anxiety.
- Enhanced Mobility: Regular Tuina treatments can improve flexibility and range of motion, making it useful for those recovering from injuries or dealing with chronic conditions like arthritis.
- Holistic Health: Tuina addresses both physical and emotional aspects of health, providing a comprehensive approach to wellness.
