About Five Element Acupuncture
Welcome to Lumina Acupuncture + Wellness! Five Element Acupuncture differs from Traditional Chinese Medicine by looking beyond physical symptoms and exploring the emotional and spiritual imbalances that may be contributing to illness. These presentations of separation can lead to sickness of all forms. Treatments can be a purification both physically and spiritually, creating profound shifts. Our symptoms are often a roadmap and can help to illuminate the places inside of us that are ready to receive light, and to illuminate a way forward, one of ease and gentleness, bringing us closer to our authentic self. This practice is dedicated to promoting heart centered healing through the art of Chinese Medicine. I believe in the body's innate ability to heal itself by recognizing the interconnectedness of our body, mind, and spirit.
"The five elements - wood, fire, earth, metal, and water - form the foundation of the Five Element approach to healing, creating ripples of well-being and vitality."

Cupping and gua sha are traditional healing modalities in Chinese Medicine. Cupping and gua sha are known to address stagnation by promoting blood flow and circulation, reduce muscle tension, activate the lymphatic system and drain excess fluids, and promote healing through increased tissue metabolism. Cupping and gua sha are not limited to treatment of pain, they are commonly used to treat a variety of chronic conditions.

Ionic Detox Foot Bath
The Detox Footbath generates negative oxygen ions absorbed by the body's cells boosting the cells energy and increasing cellular waste removal, helping the body to detox and balance. The body absorbs the negative oxygen ions generated from the footbath negating the positive ions (Free radicals). The cells are stimulated and energized by the highly charged ions releasing cellular waste and strengthening the cells. The ionic foot spa balances the meridians and energizes the body. During the treatment the body only releases what is small enough and ready to be released, the remainder will go through the body’s natural elimination system. Each footbath can affect the body in different ways as it moves towards a healthy balance. The footbath will produce colors due to the oxidation, cellular body waste, and toxins. Benefits:
