Facial Acupuncture:
A natural path to glowing skin.
Anti-aging is a word so often thrown around that some may feel that it is actually achievable. But in reality, we cannot stop the aging process. What we can do is understand the nature of aging and use tools to age gracefully, confidently, and naturally.
Facial Acupuncture is a tool that not only impacts our outer looks, but also reaches deep into ourselves and provides a holistic path towards overall health and well-being.
Health benefits of facial acupuncture:
Offers deep relaxation
Regulates hormones
Improves digestion
Enhances immunity
Improves overall circulation/ blood flow
Enhances lymphatic and endocrine function
Tend to yourself, naturally, with facial acupuncture.
Treatments include:
clearing of any stagnant energy that may be affecting the face (first treatment only),
body acupuncture to help ground the energy,
facial acupuncture to relax tense muscles, improve skin elasticity and collagen production, and reduce the appearance of fine lines and wrinkles,
application of certified organic face oils (jojoba and rosehip),
facial cupping to promote lymphatic drainage,
and facial gua sha to help the skin glow, naturally.
Please note: facial acupuncture is contraindicated for people with uncontrolled high blood pressure, migraine headaches, major or underlying health concerns such as diabetes, seizures, epilepsy, cancer, and coronary heart disease, who have had recent facial procedures and surgeries, or are currently pregnant. If you fall into one of these categories, please book in a regular acupuncture session to address these areas prior to booking in for facial acupuncture.

FAQs
Does facial acupuncture work?
Yes. Studies show that facial acupuncture improves the thickness of the skin, the depth of wrinkles, the colour of the skin, and the overall vibrance of the skin, including on the face, the neck, the chest, and around the eye area.
How many treatments do I need?
It depends. During the initial intake, we will thoroughly go over your health history and develop a plan to best achieve your goals. Treatment protocols will vary, but a good starting point is to book in 6 weekly sessions to see how your body responds to the treatments. Most people see best results with regular weekly treatments for 12 weeks (or about 3 months).
How much does it cost? How long is each session?
Our first session includes a thorough consultation and health history, an energy clearing treatment, and the facial acupuncture, which takes about 2 hours and costs $230. Follow-up sessions are 90 minutes long and cost $175 each.
How long do my results last?
Again, it depends. Generally, once a desired outcome is achieved, the treatment frequency doesn’t stop, but slows down to every 2-4 weeks.
