Facial Acupuncture in Squamish: Radiant Beauty from Within

Facial Acupuncture, often referred to as cosmetic acupuncture, is making waves in Squamish as a holistic approach to facial rejuvenation. At The Essence Wellness Center, this treatment is meticulously designed to stimulate collagen production, enhance blood circulation, and address various skin concerns. From softening wrinkles to evening out skin tone and reducing redness, facial acupuncture offers a plethora of benefits.

In the realm of Traditional Chinese Medicine, the face is a mirror to one's energy and emotional state. By examining facial areas, pulse readings, and tongue diagnosis, practitioners can identify energy imbalances that manifest as skin issues. These imbalances, rooted in internal organ dysfunctions, are addressed during the cosmetic acupuncture session. By targeting both facial and body acupuncture points, the treatment ensures a harmonious flow of Qi and blood, laying the foundation for radiant skin. Post-treatment, facial masks tailored to individual skin needs are applied, amplifying the benefits.

Package prices are available for those looking for a series of treatments.
