Acupuncture

An essential part of Chinese medicine for at least three thousand years. Acupuncture points stimulate qi , the body’s life force to facilitate healing. Acupuncture is relaxing and not painful. The World Health Organization recognizes its ability to treat many disorders. Dr. DeCicco trained in Beijing and the U.S. and has been Board-Certified in Acupuncture since 2002, by the National Commission for Acupuncture and Oriental Medicine. She specializes in cosmetic acupuncture and Microcurrent facial rejuvenation.

While acupuncture is mainly recognized in the U.S. as Chinese Medicine, in China, herbal medicine is its main modality. In China, it is said that food and medicine share a common source. Likewise, at our clinic individualized herbal teas or decoctions are sometimes prescribed for our patients, or patent formulas prescribed, based on correcting their system’s disharmony. Dr DeCicco received her M.S.O.M. in Chinese Herbal Medicine, Summa Cum Laude in 2006.

Flower Essence Therapy

Flower essences are another form of homeopathy, an energy medicine modality, created from the essence of actual flowers to treat emotional or spiritual imbalances that manifest in the body. We have found these highly effective in treating all types of emotional disorders. Dr. DeCicco appears on the FES website.
