The standard modalities at Harmony AIM:

• Acupuncture (manual): fine needles are inserted into the patient's body to regulate the flow of Qi—the most commonly used technique. It may be combined with moxibustion and cupping.

• Moxibustion: This is the most welcome therapy in Harmony AIM. A moxa box with 2 moxa sticks is put on the patient's skin. It strengthens Yang Qi and warms the Meridians. The whole treatment course is warm and comfortable. Feels like sunbathing. It is commonly used for cold, pain, weakness, low energy and organ deficiency, as well as Yang deficiency.

• Chinese Herbal Medicine: mixed, combined formula from 10-20 ingredients. Commonly used for Qi deficiency, internal organs ' dysfunctions, and insomnia.

• Electro-acupuncture: An electro-stimulator will be placed on the needles. Electricity will move the needles consistently. The application is similar to manual acupuncture, but it produces a smooth, consistent effect.

• Scalp Acupuncture: Acupuncture needles are inserted horizontally into the scalp based on the brain cortex functional areas. Particularly useful for central nervous system disorders, such as Parkinson's disease, tics, and dystonia.

• Cupping: cups will be placed on the patient's body (commonly the back). It takes three steps: Flash Cupping, Slide Cupping, and Stationary Cupping. Widely used to remove cold invasion, injury, and open up the Meridians.

• Micro-bleeding: with a lancet to bleed on the ears for less than 1 ml. Commonly used for anxiety, high blood pressure, and fever.

• Fu's subcutaneous needling (FSN): uses specially designed needle equipment to relieve tension on nerves in the subcutaneous tissue. Commonly used to treat facial and musculoskeletal pain.

• Pi acupuncture: it is one of the nine needles in the Huangdi Neijing. Commonly used to treat the fascia pain at a certain point. It takes a minute to see the result. Works fast.

• Cheng's acupuncture: the most common acupuncture style in China. I apprenticed with Cheng's fourth generation. Commonly used for most diseases and symptoms.

• Health and wellness coaching: provide FREE bedside consultation during treatment. Offer a FREE 10-minute virtual consultation.
