Acupuncture
Acupuncture is one of the oldest, most commonly used forms of medicine in the world. Originating in China more than 2,500 years ago, acupuncture is currently one of the most thoroughly researched, practiced, and respected forms of complementary medicine available anywhere.
According to Traditional Chinese Medicine, your overall health is determined by the quality of the Qi (energy) flow through the natural pathways of your body (meridians). Acupuncture uses a variety of techniques, including placing very thin sterile needles into specific points on the body, to stimulate and improve your Qi flow. The many benefits of acupuncture include:
- Pain reduction
- Stress and tension relief, anxiety
- Increased energy levels
- Stronger digestion
- Relief from bad habits and addictions, smoking cessation
- Greater sense of overall health and well-being
- Relief from stiffness, arthritis, joint injury, inflammation
- Relief from colds, flu, sinus congestion and infection, Asthma
- Headaches, dizziness
- fertility
- Improved circulation, normalize blood pressure
Auriculotherapy is a form of acupuncture using the ear as a microsystem (the outer ear called the auricle) to treat the whole body. There are recognized acupuncture points on the ear that a trained acupuncturist like Dr. Lea Kelley will use to stimulate with super tiny needles as your acupuncture session.
Conditions affecting the physical, mental or emotional health of the patient are assumed to be treatable. Besides anti-aging, pain relief, weight-loss/metabolism and smoking cessation, auriculotherapy is one of the most effective methods for drug addiction, stress and trauma as recognized by the the NADA (National Acupuncture Detox Association).
The National Institutes of Health (NIH) has a published medical study from the Medical Acupuncture Journal: “Auriculotherapy in Neurology as an Evidence-Based Medicine, A Brief Overview”. It was reported that various neurological conditions including but not limited to Dementia, Insomnia, Post Traumatic Stress Disorder (PTSD), Sciatica, Migraine and others proved favorable.

Chinese Herbology
Chinese herbal medicine is a 2,000 year old tradition using naturally occurring substances — including herbs — to enhance one's health and vitality. As opposed to Western medicine, the foundation of this approach is to support the body's natural self-healing mechanisms and abilities.
Since each patient has different needs, I carefully select and combine a variety of herbs that will synergistically blend together to achieve optimal results for your unique situation. I prescribe high-quality, professional-grade herbal medicines that are available only to qualified licensed professionals.
Cupping
Cupping has been a part of Chinese Medicine for over 2,500 years. It relieves aches and pains, improves circulation, and also helps with respiratory and digestive issues. I simply place a specialized "cup" onto specific points on your body, and then use suction to draw your skin up into the cups. It doesn't hurt — it simply draws fresh blood to that area of your body, which facilitates the cleansing and strengthening of your Qi (energy). The end result is a greater overall sense of health and well-being.
Electroacupuncture
Electroacupuncture is a highly effective holistic treatment for pain, nausea, and chronic ailments. In practice, it is actually very similar to traditional acupuncture. Using the exact same system of Chinese Medicine, I insert very thin and sterile needles into specific points along the meridians of your body. I then attach the needles to a device that delivers gentle electrical pulses between two points. This helps restore the healthy flow of Qi (energy) through your body, removing any blockages and clearing out stagnant areas, thus creating a stronger and clearer experience of health and well-being.
Moxibustion
Moxibustion is a Traditional Chinese Medicine technique that involves the burning of mugwort, a small, spongy herb, to facilitate healing and health. Moxibustion has been used for healing purposes throughout Asia for thousands of years. The purpose of moxibustion, as with most forms of Traditional Chinese Medicine, is to strengthen the blood, stimulate the flow of Qi (energy), and enhance your overall vitality and health.
Among other benefits, a landmark study published in the Journal of the American Medical Association in 1998 found that 75.4% of women suffering from breech presentations before childbirth had fetuses that rotated to the normal position after receiving moxibustion at an acupuncture point on the bladder meridian.

Bemer Therapy
Vascular Therapy using the Bemer device specializes in enhancing the microcirculation throughout your entire body in just 8 minutes! 3/4 of your circulatory tree is micro-circulation (capillaries). It is these vessels that reach the most remote and smallest parts of your body. Capillaries can be so small that they only allow one blood cell through at a time. By design, your mico-circulation is slow yet it's function is crucial to allow each cell to receive nutrients and to safely remove waste and toxins. This process is fundamental for all metabolic processes in your body. Your circulatory system also distributes hormones, immune cells and other signaling molecules. This is where the Bemer comes into play. Patients have reported improved heart function, kidney function, improved energy, pain relief, improved or elimination of numbness and tingling, etc. Call Dr. Lea Kelley for more information!
Laboratory testing
Dr. Lea Kelley offers a variety of laboratory testing with interpretation and treatment/therapy recommendations.
As a Functional Medicine licensed practitioner, I highly recommend you look into sensitive laboratory testing that your General Practitioner or medical specialist is not aware of. I have uncovered many underlying health issues with such testing that answered health challenges for patients.
Please see "Laboratory testing" page for more information
