I came to Katarina because nothing that my two doctors had offered relieved a problem I had in my throat and tongue. After a couple sessions I had complete relief from what I think was a fungal infection from inhaled cortisteroids. This worked so well I sought treatment for sciatica. Katerina kept my condition from advancing and offered me much less pain between visits. Her manner and technique are soothing and each visit was a healing experience

I have been a face lift acupuncture patient of Katarina Ryan for about a couple of months. The results I’m getting from her treatments are amazing. After each session I have people I know asking me what’s different with me. My face is lifting and glowing. My skin is radiant and healthy. I feel great and look like 10 years younger with only 6 sessions. Katarina has also been treating a severe pain I had in my wrist that was... Read more »

Facial Rejuvenation
Explore the Benefits of Facial Cosmetic Acupuncture

We all eventually hit the age where those fine lines and wrinkles around our eyes, nose, and mouth seem to become a bit more prominent than we would like. There are countless products and procedures out there for men and women, touting the benefits of reducing or even eliminating those pesky fine lines and wrinkles. Despite a diligent skincare routine, if you aren’t happy with the results and are looking for something natural, non-invasive, and truly rejuvenating, cosmetic facial acupuncture might become your go-to favorite skin care practice. continue reading
Unlocking the Ancient Wisdom of Gua Sha

Gua sha is rooted in traditional Chinese medicine. Practitioners of this medicine believe that a person’s qi, or energy, must flow unhindered throughout the body so you can feel your best. When qi becomes stagnant, health problems occur. With Gua sha, your acupuncturist uses a smooth-edged tool to gently scrape areas of your body where inflammation or stagnant qi exist to help improve circulation and promote healing. When done correctly, Gua sha can help you unlock radiant skin and achieve holistic well-being. continue reading
Facial Rejuvenation with Cosmetic Acupuncture

There are countless articles and research papers on the benefits of acupuncture, but did you know that it can also be used to combat the signs of aging? A natural alternative to surgery or Botox, facial acupuncture is merely an extension of traditional acupuncture and Chinese medicine philosophy.
Unlike an injection of Botox or some other filler, facial acupuncture addresses not just the signs of aging like fine lines and wrinkles but it also helps to restore your skin’s overall health. Now, you might be worried about acupuncture needles placed in your face, but acupuncture is safe and effective and is recognized by the World Health Organization and there are established guidelines for practice just like any other health profession. Practitioners are also licensed by their state’s department of health so you can be confident that you are in good hands. continue reading
Putting Your Best Face Forward with Facial Acupuncture

Facial acupuncture might sound like too much to try (you’re going to put needles in my face?), but it really is beneficial to overall health and wellness. In a cosmetic facial acupuncture practice, the practitioner uses acupuncture points on the body to treat the underlying patterns of disharmony and local face points to address facial symptoms. Facial acupuncture is typically not done as a standalone treatment, rather it works best as part of a whole body approach to wellness. continue reading
