Alejandra Rodriguez, L.Ac. NCCAOM

Alejandra is a graduate of the Atlantic Institute of Oriental Medicine, which is an accredited Traditional Chinese Medicine Academy in Fort Lauderdale, Florida. She received a Bachelor's in Health Science and a Masters Degree in Oriental Medicine. She is board certified by the National Certification Commission for Acupuncture and Oriental Medicine (NCCAOM). She is also licensed by the state of Arizona as a Traditional Chinese Medicine physician.

Alejandra was trained on the NADA protocol (National Acupuncture Detoxification), which is used worldwide for the treatment of substance abuse, depression, and Post-Traumatic Stress Disorder (PTSD). Alejandra also taught as a Clinic Supervisor at the Arizona School of Acupuncture and Oriental Medicine in Tucson, Arizona. The Life Extension Foundation, a nutraceutical information-based company, also employed her as a Health Advisor where she discussed health concerns, shared research, and advised callers on general nutritional health and modalities of treatment

Alejandra understands that wellness is a function of the whole; mind, body, and spirit. While a condition and its symptoms must be treated, Alejandra’s approach is by first focusing on emotional release. She believes the body holds onto emotional memories of stress, trauma, etc., which often manifest themselves as illness - releasing this tension is an intricate part of the healing process. By addressing not just the physical manifestations but also the root cause of the problem, the patient is more likely to see a holistic and long-lasting recovery, and is less likely to relapse into old patterns. Alejandra is an empathetic and compassionate healer, and her patients' comfort and peace of mind are her first concerns. Visit: www.pureintentacupuncture.com

Swedish Massage:  Also know as “traditional massage” includes specific strokes, kneading, gliding, tapping, gentle pressure and friction techniques used in combination with passive joint manipulation to release muscle tension. Swedish promotes relaxation, range of motion, improved blood circulation, while reducing muscle tension, swelling, and fatigue. Swedish massage creates a positive healing effect by promoting health and wellness through a healing touch.

Deep Tissue Massage:  Not meant to be a relaxing massage and not to be confused with a Swedigh Massage which uses more pressure, Deep Tissue Massage is meant to deliver specific clinical work on 2 or 3 areas of the body. It is a faster paced massage, spending more time warming up the muscles so they are more pliable and easier to work on. Once warmed enough, the muscles can be worked on with harder friction and pinning the muscles and stretching it in order to break up adhesions. Loosening the fibers this way at the bone attachments as well as on the belly of the muscle will improve circulation and lymph flow, bringing healing to the area. It is common to walk away with soreness at first, but eventually, aftera couple of days, the body will be able to heal itself more quickly because of the treatment.

Sports Massage:  This massage is therapy applied in the context of athletic training and competition to meet the specific goals and needs of the athlete. This pre or post event massage helps the athlete recover from training exercises and competition quickly. Warming and relaxing the muscles before or after a sporting event prevents the onset of injuries by enhancing additional blood circlulation and lymph flow (the body's immune system). It speeds the healing process and reducies soreness, cramping, and muscle spasms. Most importantly, Sports Massage optimizes range of motion and flexiblity to achieved the end result of optimal performance.

Pregnancy Massage:  Pregnancy massage facilitates the woman's body for the strong demand that pregnancy places on her whole being. This massage allows time for the body to be nurtured and pampered. Pregnancy massage relieves tensions and aches caused by the body’s adjustment and shift in the center of gravity resulting from the pregnancy. Through effleurage, rocking and assorted massage techniques the massage brings the mother and child much needed relief by reducing swelling, soothing the nervous system, reducing fatigue, and enhancing her energy.

Hot & Cold Stone Therapy:  Hot Stones are used to relieve tension and soreness by inducing muscle relaxation. Cold Stones are used in aiding therapeutic relief to the muscles by shocking the nervous system to help heal sore muscles. The combined use of both Hot & Cold Stones maximizes thereaputic and relaxation benefits for a unique whole body treatment.  [Top]
