How Chinese Medicine Guides Your Treatment
Everything we do runs on Traditional Chinese Medicine. A system refined over thousands of years and, increasingly, backed by modern research. Acupuncture can have remarkable effects on the nervous system, circulation, and inflammation. But integrative medicine isn’t just one tool or idea; it’s a full system.
Dr. Chris reads the pattern underneath your symptoms and picks the method — or the mix — that fits it. Some pain is muscular and answers to dry needling; some is nerve-driven and needs acupuncture or electroacupuncture; some conditions need herbs doing the slower work between visits.
Every plan starts with a thorough 60–90 minute assessment so Dr. Chris can tailor it to your body and goals.
Our Treatment Methods
Most plans combine more than one method. Herbs and acupuncture, in particular, do more together than either does alone. At Everybody Healing Center, your plan is personalized and adjusted over time as your body responds.
Acupuncture is the foundation of nearly everything we do — fine needles placed at specific points to calm an overactive nervous system, improve circulation, and prompt your body's own healing. Most people barely feel the needles; sessions are quiet, and some patients fall asleep. Over time, pain eases, and function comes back.
Often used for:
-
Stress, sleep, and digestion
-
Internal conditions that don’t fit a tidy diagnosis

Electroacupuncture is acupuncture with a gentle electrical current running between the needles. Different frequencies do different jobs — some ease inflammation, others improve circulation — which is why Dr. Chris calls it "writing a small program for the body to heal." You'll feel a light tapping or buzz, nothing sharp — and it's often what finally moves a stalled, nerve-related problem.

Dry needling is an orthopedic technique for muscle and trigger-point pain — a different goal than acupuncture. A thin needle into the knot triggers a quick "twitch" that releases the tight fiber, restores blood flow, and resets the movement pattern around it. Expect that brief twitch, then a day or two of mild soreness. The result: freer movement, with less pain cycling through.
Often used for:
-
Sports and overuse injuries
-
Muscle knots and trigger-point pain
-
Tension-driven neck, back, and shoulder pain
-
Limited mobility and range of motion

Chinese herbal medicine is a custom formula built for your pattern — not an off-the-shelf supplement. As Dr. Chris puts it, it's meant to "train your body to do what it forgot how to do on its own," reinforcing your systems instead of overriding them. It can run remotely — a detailed intake and a tongue photo are all he needs — and it keeps working between visits, so progress doesn't stall when you leave.
Often used for:
-
Chronic pain and internal conditions
-
Care between or beyond in-person visits
* Remote care available.

Cupping Therapy
Cupping is the one method that lifts instead of pressing down — gentle suction that pulls up the skin and the tight tissue beneath it. It loosens stubborn knots and draws fresh blood to the area, so tight muscles release, and sore spots recover faster. It can leave temporary round marks that fade within a few days, and we usually add it to a session rather than doing it on its own.
Often used for:
-
Muscle tension and tightness
-
Pain and recovery support
-
Stubborn knots that don’t release with needling alone

If you're already under someone else's care, we stay in contact with your OB and any other providers you're seeing and send them progress reports — so what we're doing is always cross-referenced with the rest of your care team.
Not Sure Which You Need?
You don’t have to know which method is right — Dr. Chris will let you know what he recommends based on your assessment at our Golden Valley clinic.
At Everybody Healing Center, we treat the person, not the condition. Still, here are some of the conditions our patients are often managing, or common goals they're looking for natural support with.
