Gabriella arrives at a diagnosis by taking a thorough medical history of the patient; by examining the patient - at the pulses on the wrists, the appearance of the tongue; the general appearance of the patient and the dialogue with the patient. Based on the diagnosis, she will select a number of acupuncture points that will address that patient's health problems and work well together to create harmony and balance within the body. The treatment will be perhaps combined with a massage or often a prescription of a Chinese Herbal formula to complement and support the acupuncture. Acupuncture treatments involve the insertion of fine sterile needles into specific points along the body's meridians (energy pathways). Stimulating these acu-points clears blockages and encourages the normal flow of Qi throughout the body. Gabriella may also stimulate the acu-points using other methods. These include: moxibustion (smouldering herbs placed near the points), cupping (cups applied via a suction method to various parts of the body), and massage or acupressure
