Welcome Two New Acupuncturists!

Acupuncture and Herbal Therapies is excited to announce two new Acupuncturists!

Val Mirea, AP, DOM began working with us a few months ago. After earning his M.D. in Europe in 1981 and his Master of Science in Oriental Medicine degree in Texas in 2000, he has primarily worked in integrative clinics that provide alternative therapies in addition to regular allopathic treatments. His continued research and training in injection therapy led to his special focus in Facial Rejuvenation and Body Contouring. Treatments consist of a series of focused appointments using acupuncture, homeopathic microinjections with vital nutrients and cytokines, herbs, diet and lifestyle modifications to bring about both an inner and outer beauty in each patient.
