My Journey
Is
my passion and my “go to” in my toolbox when treating a patient, my family, or myself. It is a key component of traditional Chinese Medicine. It is most commonly used to treat pain, but widely used to treat various physical, mental and emotional conditions. Acupuncture is an integrative medicine treatment that involves the insertion of very thin needles through your skin at strategic points on your body. In recent years it has been used for overall wellness, including stress management and emotional wellbeing. As a Traditional Chinese Medicine practitioner, I also use other modalities to treat my patients. I place emphasis on individualized treatments, and use healing methods that vary according to my patients’ needs. I also use the following during my treatments: Auriculotherapy, Acugraph, Cupping Therapy, Herbal Medicine, and supplements and nutritional recommendations.
Tiny
ear seeds from the vaccaria plant are applied in specific points on the ear instead of using acupuncture needles. The seeds are small and round objects that can be applied to different pressure points on the ear using an adhesive tape. The patient can then press the points where the seeds are and stimulate the acupuncture or acupressure points that way. Usually they stay on for a week at a time, and the patient presses the points a couple of times per day to stimulate it.
What
is AcuGraph?
The AcuGraph Digital Meridian Imaging system is a computerized tool used to analyze and document the energetic status of the acupuncture meridians. I use this system in a short examination by touching a moistened probe to acupuncture points on a patient’s hands and feet. The AcuGraph allows me to measure and analyze the energy balance of each of the acupuncture meridians. Armed with this information, I can make better-informed decisions about a patient’s condition, the state of balance of the body and provide the best treatment possible.
What
is Meridian Balancing and why is it so effective?
Meridian Therapy uses acupuncture to treat both root and branch problems. The root treatment is done by the meridian balance, and the branch is the focused acupuncture treatment for the main complaint of the patient.
You may be wondering why a root treatment should be done on a patient. Basically, it is finding the “why” of a disease. When the body is in balance, there is an energetic equilibrium with good movement of qi and blood, and the body can maintain health or promote self-healing from the diseased state.
Uses
glass or acrylic cups to pull an area of skin into a suction that decompresses muscles and connective tissue. This treatment promotes blood flow to the compromised area, enhances circulation, and helps to increase the body’s own healing processes. Several athletes use this this therapy to decrease muscle recovery time and relieve pain.
Has
been described as the relationship between diet and health. It has also been said that nutrition is the fuel for the entire body, so we should take it very seriously. I love to work with my patients and together formulate a personalized nutritional plan, taking into account each patient’s lifestyle, tastes, and needs. I can also provide a booklet with step-by-step nutritional guides that can be followed at home.
When available, I will use a complete blood test and run it through my software to give specific supplemental recommendations according to each patient’s blood chemistry.
A personalized supplement program may also be recommended to correct any imbalances or deficiencies, but remember that these are supplementing a balanced diet and are not designed as a replacement.
I
apply a holistic approach to the use of herbs to address physical and emotional issues. Once I have assessed my patients’ specific needs and constitutional diagnosis as well, a formula is recommended to stimulate the body’s healing mechanisms. Herbs are safe and natural and can be a great adjunct part of the treatment.
My
experienced team offers a variety of therapeutic massage and bodywork techniques in accordance to the patients’ needs. I feel that a massage is much more than a relaxing treat. Massage can be used to treat pain and do rehabilitation. It can treat the body and several emotional problems.
Cosmetic
treatments and skin care are an extension of traditional acupuncture. It is said to be the natural alternative to botox, because Facial Acupuncture can help make the skin look younger, smoother, and all-around healthier. And unlike injection procedures, Facial Acupuncture addresses not only signs of aging, but also the skin’s overall health. The patient has points to balance the body and improve health while simultaneously enhancing the appearance of the skin with some local points, also.
When
you love what you do, you want to spread the joy. I really enjoy teaching others about health and wellness, so I decided to create workshops that are interactive and designed to engage, educate, and motivate others to incorporate wellness into their lives both in and out of the workplace. I have partnered with several local businesses and companies, creating workshops and health events. Topics range from nutrition and healthy eating, tips for creating a workout routine or performing stretches during work, strategies to diminishing stress, performing chair massage, and ear seeds demonstrations.
I have also hosted several health topic workshops at Benessere Miami, where I bring natural suggestions and treatments to common health conditions such as thyroid, diabetes, digestive health, and many others.
About
Me
"I truly love what I do and I feel I am gentle and practice with love"...
Hello, I am Regina Oyarce, a licensed Acupuncture Physician in Florida. Being an Acupuncturist has been an amazing and rewarding path in life and I have been able to help many people improve their health and live free of pain.
I believe that happens not by working with alternative medicine, but with Traditional Medicine. I am helping the local Doral community and surrounding areas with the natural healing process of your mind, body, and spirit so that you can feel whole again.
I feel that many doctors focus on a patient’s symptoms, rather than the root cause of a disease. According to the Traditional Chinese Medicine, it is very important to find out what is causing the unbalance of energy in the body and why the patients feel the way they do. It has been my experience that using a holistic approach, where every organ works in harmony with each other, can help the body heal itself and restore balance.
