Natural WellnessRobin Arnold, MS, L.Ac. (VA), AP (FL), Dipl. Ac. (NCCAOM), CFMP -  Offers gentle and caring approaches to wellness through her varied holistic toolbox, years of experience, proven results, and discovering how each individual can benefit from personalized direction and assistance for their body/mind/spirit re-balancing.  By utilizing the body’s natural ability to heal itself, based solidly in scientific studies, each treatment program is individual and is customized for each person.

Acupuncture – It is an ancient system of natural healing that has been effectively used by Asian cultures for over 5,000 years.  It is based on the belief that there is a life force of vital energy, called Qi (pronounced “chee”) which is present in all living organisms.  In the state of health, this energy is flowing and circulating along 12 pathways, called meridians.  Each meridian is linked to a specific internal organ system.  When the flow is blocked, this can result in an imbalance or illness condition.  The improved energy and biochemical balance produced by acupuncture stimulates the body’s natural healing abilities, transforming stasis resolving toxins, thereby reducing inflammation and promoting physical wellness.

Facial Microneedling - Facial Rejuvenation Acupuncture – uses fine needles on the tip of a powered “pen” device to create fine micro injuries, which enables the body to repair itself, stimulating collagen and elastin production, resulting in smoother firmer skin with softer lines and wrinkles.  If energy is not flowing through the body properly, and thereby limiting the lymphatic system function, this can contribute to puffiness, eye bags and pre-mature aging.  Microneedling can address concerns such as scars, uneven skin tones, sunspots, and even rejuvenate thinning hair areas.

Reiki Energy Balancing  A Japanese form of balancing energy through the hands.  Sessions are pleasant and relaxing, facilitating balance on physical, mental and emotional levels.  Reiki health benefits vary from stress reduction, better sleep, more peaceful state of being, enhance mental clarity and alleviate mood swings and frustration.  On the physical level, it helps to speed up surgery recovery and relieve pain.  Reiki helps adults, babies and even pets.

The Term Functional Medicine is a Systems Based Approach -  patient-centered healing at its best. Instead of looking at and treating health problems as isolated diseases, it treats individuals who may have bodily symptoms, imbalances, and dysfunctions. As an image of an iceberg shows, a named disease such as diabetes, cancer, or fibromyalgia might be visible above the surface, but according to Functional Medicine, the cause lies in the altered physiology below the surface. Usually, the cause of the disease and its symptoms is an underlying dysfunction or an imbalance of bodily systems. Named diseases are just the tip of the iceberg. Below the surface, according to Functional Medicine, are the real causes of a patient's health problems. If health care treats just the tip of the iceberg, it rarely leads to long-term relief and vibrancy. Identifying and treating the underlying root cause or causes, as Functional Medicine does, there is a much better chance to successfully resolve a patient's health challenge.

Improved Health with Nutritional & Lifestyle Changes Nutritional Response Testing – In order to get the most benefit from Acupuncture or energy modalities, it is very important to support your treatment with the proper diet and lifestyle.  Nutrition plays a vital role.   NRT is a non-invasive, proven system using the body’s neurological and acupuncture reflexes to assess and analyze the current functional health status of organs, glands, joints, muscles, etc, and utilize whole food supplements along with diet and therapeutic lifestyle suggestions.

Food, exercise, or daily regimen directly impacts a person’s healing time and energy balance.
