COMING MAY 2024: COSMETIC ACUPUNCTURE✨
Our skin and how we feel in it is a deep, integral part of our health.

In cosmetic facial acupuncture, we are not only softening fine lines and wrinkles. We are:
💕brightening and evening skin tone
💕offering lift and creating integrity in the tissue
💕relieving facial pain and tension
💕supporting proper lymphatic flow in the head and neck
💕addressing underlying patterns of disharmony in the body.

Cosmetic acupuncture is a beautiful alternative to neurotoxins and filler. A combination of modern skincare technologies, facial gua sha, cupping, and acupuncture creates safer and more natural changes in the skin that help you to improve skin appearance but still look like yourself. I’ve been learning so much and I am looking forward to sharing these practices with you.

Hot off the press!! A fresh batch of gift certificates has arrived just in time for our fellow last-minute shoppers. Give the gift of well-being to the love of your life, a friend that just had a baby and needs some me-time, a tightly-wound aunt or uncle, a parent that grunts every time they get up off the couch, and more! Acupuncture always fits.

some cups for a lil myofascial decompression after treating upper back and shoulder pain. I really don’t use cups very often (all about the 🪡 ) but when I do, I like to slide the cups along the channel to mobilize the tissue before letting them rest and form their signature dark circles.

started from the now we’re here. these two baby acupuncturists just celebrated their first year in business!!! and we were both so busy we like kind of forgot about it and i just realized now. but just wanted to say that we’re really grateful for all of your support. ty to for giving us a home. and ty to all of our patients for trusting us with your health and wellness. ty to friends and family for encouraging us. and ty to each other for being such fun and cute business partners/friends. if you haven’t been in to see us yet, there’s no time like the present and there’s no place like LBA. ✨

p.s. insurance coverage coming soon! w00t w00t

I built a new garden this year and oh my gawd is being a Yard Dad hard work!! And not so mysteriously, the way we tend to plants PERFECTLY aligns with how we tend to our own five elements. (Because, Qi)

Our Wood element is the element of spring time. We want to hydrate, and eat well, and exercise in the springtime NOT because of impending bikini season but because that is the natural movement of Qi. (Our plants want to do the same thing). Our Wood element is bursting with ideas and creation and movement. We need a vision, good conditions, and space to move and grow. We need grace, forgiveness, and flexibility to keep moving forward. With the wrong care, unhealthy Wood withers (dead seedlings) or gets bound and repressed and depressed (root bounded plants in a too-small pot). You see what I mean?

We know how to give plants what they need, and move through each season knowing that summer is the time for enjoying the bloom, harvest is the time for exchange and appreciating the bounty, fall is the time for honoring the end, and winter is the time for stillness and generation and trust that our garden will return.

Gardens grow when they are tended to in all five seasons. We give that same nourishment to our selves and the people around us.

We need what plants need.

To thrive, just remember!! treat yourself like a plant. By doing so, you will learn a whooooleeee lot about the wisdom and health of your own five elements. ❤️🌱- d

Only the best for you ✨❤️

Moxa is an external heat therapy applied over top of an acupuncture point or affected area. The refined dried mugwort floss burns slowly, adding gentle warmth and qi to the body. Moxa is used to treat injury and pain, bolster the immune system, and even flip breech babies! We use the highest grade organic moxa available. Grown in the U.S.A. and harvested with care and intention.

(Picture 2 shows the average moxa on the left and the moxa we use on the right)

When you ask your patient how their neck is feeling this week^^^
We actually hear this a lot and we like to remind everyone that they’re always doing the best they can with what they have at the time. We’re just thrilled they found their way to acupuncture eventually and can move forward in good health.

FIYAH SZN 🔥

Flex spending or health savings account? Use it to pay for acupuncture! While we aren’t in our insurance era just yet, we are able to accept these forms of payment.

Acupuncture is a fantastic therapy for pregnancy-related nausea and hyperemesis. Along with your treatment, we’ll provide you with realistic, accessible lifestyle and diet recommendations for even more support. The second slide is a message we got after our patient received ONE treatment for her morning sickness. She’s still feeling good and her symptoms are improving every day.

Spring is well on its way. While the temperature may or may not feel like it, the amount of sunlight is growing by minutes every day and some of the less risk-averse flowers (ie daffodils, crocuses, snowdrops) are peeking their heads above the ground. LBA is here to help you through the seasonal shift 🌱

sending love and warmth to all of our patients this valentine’s day❤️‍🔥 show yourself some love by booking a treatment with us today. (Shown above: moxibustion, or the burning of mugwort, on top of ST36 for a little immune boost!)

NEW OFFERINGS ✨
We’ve added two new treatment formats to meet your time and financial budgets and we’re so excited about them. Hope to see you soon.

LBA has been here for 6 whole months already! We just wanted to say how thankful we are for all of your support. If you helped us set up the office, came to our opening party, came for treatment, taught us, or even had a nice thought about us, we can’t thank you enough. We are very much open (despite what that darned google business page glitch might try to say from time to time), thriving, and look forward to serving our community for many years. 🪷 ✨

We love a good acupuncture success story. 😍When this patient started coming, she was having an average of three migraines weekly. The headaches felt like a tight band around her head with occasional pain and pressure around her eyes. The only way to stop them was to take her rescue meds and lay in a dark room for a few hours. Since starting acupuncture, her headaches have been far less severe and less frequent. In the most recent month, she had only one headache that went away on its own in an hour. It’s not magic, it’s acupuncture! ✨

Attention, menstruating friends! This one’s for you. 🔴

There’s no better place to be on a cold winter day ❄️❤️‍🔥

I’ve been thinking about what winter is for and why. Chinese Medicine’s Kidney-Heart connection in winter reminds me of us- Turning to face our fireplace or our candles or our car vents, we pause for at least a moment right?! To luxuriate in the warmth within winter. Like the Kidney turning towards the Heart, we are warmed and better for it.


Woven from Lonny Jarrett’s “Nourishing Destiny” and Russell Brown

Wishing you all a happy, restful, insightful Water season. ❄️

❤️‍🔥We often hear about acupuncture as a treatment for chronic pain and illness, but did you know that seeing an acupuncturist for an acute injury can provide relief and seriously speed up your healing time?

❤️‍🔥The first picture is giving horror film, but is truly just a treatment for a wrist sprain done while the patient lies under the rays of a delightful infrared heat lamp.

❤️‍🔥The second picture is moxibustion being done along the affected channel for a little extra oomph.

❤️‍🔥This was done yesterday at 5pm, and today at 8am, the patient reports decreased pain as well as increased mobility and hand strength.

tiny, but mighty! ✨
Acu needles are the tiniest little friends, but they make the biggest changes in our bodies; releasing tight muscle tissue, regulating our nervous system, and more! We ❤️ these mini daggers 🗡️

Really feeing the shift into autumn right about now. The leaves are changing. The air is cooler on our skin. We are called to slow down and go inward, but how are we really supposed to do that? We have work to do, people to take care of, bills to pay. Chinese medicine can help us find balance now and in all seasons; regulating our nervous system, supporting our immunity, and helping us to find comfort and ease in our body. Both of us have openings this coming week and would love to see you. 🍁🤍

happy equinox, friends! we’re here to support you through the shift into autumn. ✨🍂
