I am honored and happy to see you walk in the door because it is a sign of the strength within you. It is a sign of the trust you have that there is a possibility for things to change, and in the highest way your responding to your own prayer asking for help. And I pray for you to receive the help you are looking for.
Acupuncture is one of the oldest, most commonly used forms of medicine in the world. Originating in China more than 2,500 years ago, acupuncture is currently one of the most thoroughly researched, practiced, and respected forms of complementary medicine available anywhere. According to Traditional Chinese Medicine, your overall health is determined by the quality of the Qi (energy) flow through the natural pathways of your body (meridians).
In various narrations it is also narrated that healing is found in black seed, cupping, and honey. Wet cupping is a cleansing of toxic blood, and recommended in any detox program or one who has quit drug use and wants to thoroughly clean the body of traces of impurity. TIMING Our clinic offers Wet cupping or Hijama from Spring to Early Fall (April through September) on the 17th, 19th, and 21st of the lunar month.
It works on both the physical and energetic levels of the body containing a variety of techniques. Some are deep and strong, while others are light and soft. This combination helps melt and dissolve pain, tension, and stress. Tui Na is a great alternative to acupuncture, especially for children and needle-phobic adults.
Think of herbs as super concentrated food medicine. The whole herb as opposed to extraction of particular constituents is beneficial becasue there is a wisdom to how the herbs occur naturally. Science is increasing learning of the side-effects to recent medicines that have been further removed from their origins.

I originally saw Ali for help with back pain. Not only did he treat that, but helped me make so many other improvements to my physical and emotional health. Ali is a true healer. You will be heard and helped here.

I am so thankful for Ali’s work. I had not tried acupuncture before and have been so grateful for the results. First, his work with acupuncture and an herbal prescription relieved me of reoccurring debilitating menstrual cramps that I had for years with only two treatments. He also helped reduce neck and shoulder pain from sitting at a desk in my work. Then with acupuncture, an herbal perscription, moxabustion, tui na massage and qi gong exercises, he continued to help improve my overall health so that I could become pregnant at the age of 34 years old. He offers quality service and I highly

I had the most amazing cupping and acupuncture session with Ali! He was so informative and explained everything he was doing and how it would benefit me. He is extremely knowledgeable and I felt that I was in good hands- literally! I learned so much from him AND felt relaxed and rejuvenated. I will definitely be returning back.

Ali is extremely skilled, caring, and knowledgeable. When you're with him, he gives you his total attention - that's so refreshing in an age where it feels like doctors are often trying to usher you in and out of their office quickly. The personal touch is much appreciated and keeps me coming back.
Regardless of the issues I've come to Ali with - whether they be physical in nature (tight shoulder, back and neck pain) or due to emotional or psychological stress - he takes his time diagnosing then always seems to choose the perfect treatment for that day. Every time I've gone to the office, I've

In less than 30 minutes Ali was able to release my tensed up neck, shoulder & arm muscles with his amazing Tui Na at House of Steep. I can't wait to go to his office & get fully body work. I'm thinking acupuncture, Tui Na & pulse analysis..I highly recommend a visit with Ali if one have old or new deep issue especially on neck & shoulder. Thank you Ali!
