During your time with Dr. Stephanie, you will experience sound healing, tuning forks, acupressure, facial reflexology. The use of Moxa, cupping, gua sha, and ear seeds are provided when called for. Rest assured, you will get what you need!
Whether it's two sessions or regular visits throughout the year, we delight in seeing the effective and lasting results of our treatment plans.
As Ouchie is known for its unconventional approach to “acupuncture”, and we strive to allow for empowered health. Dr. Stephanie is accompanied by her daughter Eena, who has been immersed in this healing world from day one of her life. She is a sweet and welcome addition. As this is unconventional, we respect and honor that this is not the ideal healing experience for everyone. Solo treatments cannot be guaranteed.
Dr. Stephanie and baby E are honored to be a part of your health + wellness journey!
EMPOWER
In EMPOWER, you will experience a customized treatment playlist, that will become available to you after your treatment. This custom playlist will help to guide you into your treatment outcome goals, along with the help of tuning forks to settle you into the treatment. Tuning forks are used via sound and touch to help enter a state of relaxation with ease, allowing you to forget your to-do list, the stress from the day, or what still lies ahead. Facial Reflexology, also known as Dien Chan Zone, is a gentle reflexology technique that gentle guides you into a Theta brainwave state. Theta is the stage between Alpha (meditative, yet conscious brain waves) and Delta (deep sleep brain waves). In Theta you are fully aware, yet in an almost hypnotic restorative state. This allows for deep restoration and recalibration.
