DR. JULIE’S HEALING APPROACH
What to Expect
By acknowledging that every body is different, Dr. Julie takes into account her patient’s current physical condition, mental state, emotional well-being, and overall health objectives when designing a unique treatment plan. This personalized approach allows for a more precise and targeted intervention that addresses the root causes of imbalances and supports the body’s innate healing abilities.
In addition to traditional acupuncture, Chinese herbal remedies may be prescribed, and other modalities such as cupping, gua sha, and acupressure may be incorporated into acupuncture treatments to enhance the therapeutic effects and offer a comprehensive approach to healing.

Health History (20 min)
Diagnosis and Treatment Plan
Treatment (30 min)
Prior to needling, Dr. Julie may do gua sha or moving cupping to help release the fascia layer to increase the efficacy. The needles are inserted and left in for 20 minutes. In some cases, Dr. Julie may apply electrical stimulation to the needles.
Post Treatment (5 min)
Dr. Julie will remove the needles and discuss how you’re feeling and what you noticed during your treatment. She will then talk about next steps and answer any questions you may have. Patients are encouraged to enjoy a cup of herbal tea or lemon water before they transition back to the “real world.”
"10 out of 10 stars"
@julienelsontcm instantly makes my day, my health, and just my life (!!!) feel easier to manage. Not to mention her healing touch, Chinese herbs and acupuncture that have gotten me through some trying times. So grateful for all our years “together.”

How does acupuncture relieve pain?
How many acupuncture treatments do I need?
Acupuncture for Tight Jaw (TMJ) Muscles
People who wear a mouthguard invariably suffer from tight TMJ muscles caused from grinding or clenching the jaw. The mouthguard protects the gums, but it doesn’t stop the clenching and grinding motions. The result is tender painful jaw areas often leading to temporal headaches and neck pain.
While some western practitioners are advocating for BOTOX, I recommend you try acupuncture and facial cupping first. Why freeze an area only to have the pain return when you can relieve it all together?
