Slowing Down and Glowing from Within: Facial Rejuvenation Acupuncture

 

As we navigate this transitional time between seasons, Traditional Chinese Medicine (TCM) reminds us that the fall season is a time to release what we no longer need, turn inward, and nourish ourselves for the months ahead.

Fall is also a season of dryness, which often shows up in our skin, making this a perfect time to take a dive into facial rejuvenation—a favorite specialty and self care practice of ours—and demystify it a bit.

Facial acupuncture supports skin health, reduces fine lines, and enhances natural radiance.

How Facial Rejuvenaton works within TCM:

In TCM, the face is more than skin deep—it reflects the state of your whole body. Dull skin may reflect sluggish digestion; puffiness can indicate fluid imbalance; fine lines may be connected to stress or tension held in the body.

Facial rejuvenation acupuncture treats both the surface and the root:

  • Local points on the face improve circulation, tone, and elasticity.

  • Body points balance underlying systems such as digestion, hormones, and stress response, supporting long-term skin health.

The New York Times recently shined a light on facial acupuncture, noting its rise as a natural, holistic approach to healthier skin. Beyond improving tone and elasticity, the article emphasized that results last longer because the benefits reach deeper than the surface of the skin alone.

Because we love practicing modalities backed by clinical research, we also have incorporated Celluma red light therapy into all of our facial rejuvenation treatments.

This specific type of red light therapy works by delivering light energy deep into your skin and tissues, where it boosts circulation, reduces inflammation, and supports natural healing.

One of our main goals as practitioners is to facilitate safe, gentle yet effective healing paths for all of our clients. With that said, we hope you find small ways to slow down and welcome nourishing practices into your routine.

Whether that’s a warm cup of tea, a quiet walk, or time spent with friends and family, these moments of tending to yourself make all the difference.

We’re grateful to walk alongside you this season and wish you a fall filled with ease, radiance, and renewal.
