Chinese Healing Arts

Chinese Healing Arts Andrea Ford uses a blend of Chinese Medicine, Enneagram Counseling, and Functional Medicine to creat Acupuncture alone is a powerful medicine.

Andrea’s 3 discipline approach to healing is transformative, and inspiring:

1. Chinese Medicine

Our essence or life force energy can be fine tuned using various forms of Chinese medicine. Andrea’s 20 years of learning, teaching and administering this medicine allows her to see your personal issues and create a program of wellness especially designed for you. Using acupuncture, massage therapy and herbal or dietary knowledge, Andrea creates a customized program and traces your progress through the program, modifying and enhancing the treatments as your healing and awareness improves. Andrea combines her 18 years as a licensed Acupuncturist with other wellness disciplines to determine your imbalances and their effect on your health, personality and general well being. Her treatment can help you find your energy balance to heal your personal behavior patterns and rejuvenate your physical, emotional, mental, and spiritual alignment and healing. Andrea will often prescribe a serious of massage sessions to loosen tight muscles and ligaments, improve circulation, help with the release of toxins and return your nervous system to a true state of natural relaxation. She often combines acupuncture and massage in one session to achieve this balance. In certain advanced situations Andrea will work with you with Shamanic Breathing techniques. This is a powerful healing discipline that can assist you to achieve an advanced stage of awareness of your essence and physical/consciousness connection.

2. Enneagram Counseling

The Enneagram is a personality type discipline which is based in ancient wisdom from several different religious traditions including Christianity, and Eastern Mysticism. These traditions have been studied and expanded by modern philosophers and psychologists. Modern Enneagram analysis and treatment is a well organized and understandable methodology for many different patterns of disharmony in 9 basic personality types. Andrea conducts classes and private counseling to help you discover what your hidden personality pattern is that causes you to lose your center when you become stressed. When you lose touch with your essence or center, you begin to resonate at a more base frequency, which causes problems in your personal life, your career, your health and your relationships. Finding out what your danger zones are and learning how to balance yourself and be more resilient in the face of these emotional triggers can help you maintain your center and heal your entire life.

3. Functional Medicine

Western Scientific Medicine has established a holistic branch of Medicine called “Functional Medicine.” Functional Medicine is based on how the body actually works. (As opposed to working against the natural processes the way toxic medication and dangerous surgeries are often used in conventional practices to suppress symptom.) Functional medicine actually works in harmony with your body’s natural processes to help you to heal without any side affects at a very deep, core level. Based on personal experience with clients Andrea has studied these disciplines and integrated them into her standard practice of wellness healing. “Like Chinese Medicine we look at your stressors, your diet and exercise and we evaluate the health of your hormones and digestive and adrenal systems to help you find the right plan for returning theses directing and generative systems of the body to normal balance.” Working with your basic systems you can turn on your regenerative pathways, which can return you to vibrant health. In addition to her 3 Healing Disciplines, Andrea incorporates her Shamanic Art, which expresses the subtle energies of her work to inspire emotional and spiritual healing.

Acupuncture works with the meridian points of the body to promote healing and balance Qi (the life force energy). Many seek acupuncture in the beginning for relief of certain symptoms, such as low back pain or fatigue. In the early stages of care treatments a spaced closer together. As symptoms begin to disappear - meaning what brought you to seek acupuncture is no longer acute - appointments are lessened into a consistent schedule. This level is known called corrective or maintenance care. As healing occurs, over time, the level of care steps down to a wellness and preventative nature and treatments may become necessary on a monthly or seasonal basis.

Chinese Healing Arts is dedicated to providing an effective, efficient personalized client healing experience for the mind - body - spirit.

The free soul is rare, but you know it when you see it - basically because you feel good, very good, when you are near or with them.

It is the great mystery of human life that old grief passes gradually into quiet tender joy.
