What to expect at your appointment:

  • We will wear a mask during your visit. It is recommended, but not required for you to wear a mask.
  • Sessions are approximately one hour. The first session can be slightly longer.
  • Each session is designed to address your current state of health, the symptoms you are experiencing, your constitution and general energy levels. A variety of ABT techniques can be used to improve your energy flow. These techniques might include gentle holding; pressing with palms, thumbs, and fingers on the meridians; and, when appropriate, more dynamic rotations and stretches.
  • Additional tools and techniques may be used in a session, as appropriate. These can include, but are not limited to cupping, guasha, moxibustion, seiki-soho, teishin, and tuina.
  • At the end of your appointment, home care recommendations may include qigong and/or  liniments/topicals.

How to pay for your appointment:

  • The standard fee, $115/hr, is intended for those with stable incomes and the ability to save. Your ability to support at this rate or more allows Heart of Zen to offer sliding scale options.
  • Sliding scale option takes into account your financial situation and circumstances. Paying less is intended for students, and others who are getting by but don’t have much extra in their budget. You are always welcome to pay more than the standard fee.
  • We accept cash, check, and  credit card payments. Cash or check are preferred.
  • If you have an elevated temperature, or are not feeling well, please call the office asap to reschedule your appointment.
