Gentle Treatment, Positive Results.

Dr. Dani offers traditional acupuncture and thermal massage for pain relief, disease treatment, problem resolution (addictive behaviors, problems of pregnancy, etc.), stress relief/relaxation, and health maintenance. She treats the full range of conditions whether physical or emotional, acute or chronic, internally generated, infectious or traumatic.

There is an exciting new concept growing across the country: inexpensive, totally affordable acupuncture treatments. This is provided by means of Community Acupuncture Clinics and Dani has opened the first one in the Tampa Bay area. If you’ve had acupuncture before, you know that most acupuncturists treat patients one-to-one in private rooms. This method does give you lots of attention but it also can become quite expensive if you need ongoing treatment. In the new community model, people are treated in a group setting, sometimes laying on massage tables, sometimes sitting up in recliners. You do not get undressed. All treatments are done by choosing what are called “distal points” – on the arms, legs or head. Acupuncture definitely does not follow the model of Western medicine; we do not have to work directly on the area of pain or illness to be effective. Even back and neck problems can be treated by points on the arms and legs. 

The most obvious benefit of the clinic is cost – a lot less than traditional private treatment. But there are other wonderful benefits also. Friends and family can come in together; many people find it comforting to have someone else in the room; because there is less emphasis on talking, each treatment takes less time out of your day; a joint energy seems to arise that makes the individual treatments even more powerful.

In the Community Acupuncture Clinic, cost is completely separated from health. You pay on a sliding scale of $15 to $40 and you decide how much you can pay for each treatment. You do not have to provide any financial information or “proof of need”. You know what you can afford and you know that that amount might be different from week to week. 

Dani wants you to be able to get the treatment you need, for as long as you need it, without worrying about money. She wants to make it possible for you to come in often enough to really get better and stay better.

Dr. Dani particularly enjoys working with people who have never experienced acupuncture; she understands their anxiety and takes extra time to help them relax and be comfortable. Because she focuses on gentle treatment, most of her patients remark on how pleasantly surprised they are by their treatments – they don’t feel a thing. Most fall asleep, deeply relaxed. Not only do the treatments not hurt, they make you feel so good afterwards!

There are needle-free options available also:

• The cold laser can be used to augment an acupuncture treatment or it can be used alone. It is particularly fantastic used within 24 hours of an acute injury.

• Ear seeds stimulate nerve endings in the ear that correspond to various parts of the body. Dr. Dani has a special instrument that picks up the minute inflammation in the affected nerves and sends out a buzzing signal so that she can precisely apply a tiny herbal seed to that spot. Many people come in just for an ear seed treatment for aching backs or necks, pulled muscles or headaches.

• Cupping is a technique that applies suction to a particular body area to dramatically increase blood flow. It is very beneficial for back pain and stiff shoulders, eases the discomfort that accompanies chemotherapy and radiation, is great for respiratory disorders and digestive problems.

The Migun Thermal Massage Bed uses sets of small jade balls to massage up and down your back, on either side of your spine, and also along your legs. It gives off infrared heat and negative ions to soothe you and build your immune system. The experience is delicious! The Migun bed clears stress, revitalizes energy, relieves aches and pains, detoxifies, improves blood circulation and improves sleep – all while treating every segment of your spine. Studies and anecdotal evidence show that it’s particularly helpful in reducing pain in people with fibromyalgia and scoliosis. And it’s so easy – no undressing, no oils – just take your shoes off and lay down – and be transported.

Dr. Dani is happy to have people telephone or come in to ask questions about acupuncture and how it can help their particular situation.
