“I just had my first Facial Acupuncture treatment with Lizzie at Soraluna and I must say, I am absolutely glowing! (Seriously, I’m glowing).

“Lizzie's signature facial acupuncture is the most incredible treatment on the planet! I could not believe how well my super sensitive skin received it. She uses locally-sourced, plant-based skincare (masks, hydrosols, serums, balms) along with strategically placed needles on the face (no botox necessary!) to lift and invigorate. Gua sha and gentle cupping is also part of the process. It feels luxurious, so pampering, and my skin was smooth, hydrated and brightened afterward.”

My Facial Rejuvenation Journey
For a long time, I didn’t offer facial rejuvenation treatments. But after clients kept asking, I decided to go for it.
The benefits astounded me.
Now, these are my favorite treatments to offer!
Like a good little guinea pig, I gave myself a series of 10 treatments first before offering them to others. I wanted to see what the experience was like!
I wasn’t able to do the full treatments like I give my clients (it is hard for me to treat my own back, neck, and shoulders), but I was able to perform 10 treatments over a series of 3 months.
From there, I’ve continued giving myself a treatment every 4-6 weeks (it feels really good!)
Yes, my postpartum melasma began resolving, my fine lines began smoothing, and my facial veins began to fade. But the most surprising results were three-fold:
My mood began to dramatically improve. I felt more uplifted and hopeful, and made huge strides in some creative projects.
My concentration, focus, and memory improved. Because facial acupuncture includes points on the scalp, I believe these treatments were bringing more qi and blood to my brain.
A 15 year old jaw injury began to resolve. I began to see dramatic improvement in areas I thought were permanently injured. You can see this in the progress photos, especially on the right — my right lower jaw transitions from being tight to having more movement and volume.
Do I still have facial veins, bags, dark under my eyes? Yup! I’ve had these since I was a kid.
I’m cool with that, though.
Perfection isn’t the point.
I’m way more interested in creating flow, which leads to glow.
I’ve since become passionate about facial acupuncture, and love offering these treatments to individuals.
The acupuncture didn’t just rejuvenate my face.
It rejuvenated my entire life.

FAQs about the Facial Rejuvenation Program
How does the Facial Rejuvenation Program work?
Our Facial Rejuvenation Program uses fine needles to stimulate specific points on your face and body, promoting collagen production, increasing blood circulation, and enhancing overall skin health. The program includes 10 sessions designed to rejuvenate your skin and support your body’s natural grace.
Is this program right for me?
If you’re looking for a natural way to enhance your appearance, reduce signs of aging, and achieve a glowing complexion, this program is ideal. It’s suitable for individuals seeking non-toxic beauty treatments and those interested in supporting their body holistically.
Chinese Medicine is a medicine of longevity, and this program taps into the wisdom of this tradition.
What can I expect during my initial consultation?
During your initial consultation, we will spend about 45 minutes discussing your skin goals, total body health, and any health concerns you may have. Then we’ll spend the remaining 75 minutes giving you a total-body rejuvenation session.
The session begins by supporting the tissues of your back, neck, and shoulders through acupuncture, cupping, or gua sha. This helps to release tension in the structures supporting your face, which allows for greater circulation and better energy flow in your tissues. Everybody looks better when their neck and shoulders are relaxed!
From there, you’ll receive constitutional acupuncture on your hands, feet, arms, and legs. Then I’ll cleanse your face, and place the needles in your face, neck, and scalp. After you rest on the warm table, covered in organic flannel or linen, I’ll remove the facial needles and provide gentle massage, gua-sha, cupping, or reiki. Then I’ll remove the constitutional body needles and the treatment is over.
You’ll leave feeling glowy, relaxed, and vibrant!
How is this program different from other facial treatments?
Facial acupuncture offers a holistic, non-surgical alternative to traditional beauty treatments. Unlike invasive procedures, facial acupuncture not only promotes natural collagen production, improves circulation, and reduces tension, it also supports overall well-being. It also avoids the side effects and recovery time associated with more invasive treatments.
But I also believe the greatest benefit comes from tapping into the longevity wisdom of Chinese Medicine. Acupuncture has so many benefits, like supporting hormonal health, reducing tension, improving circulation, promoting lymphatic movement, calming the spirit, and reducing stress. Clients also report it supports their transition during menopause.
After this series of 10 treatments, people not only feel greater movement in their bodies, this movement seems to translate into their lives as well. What’s stuck no longer feels stuck, on both a physical, emotional, and spiritual level.
What are the benefits of facial acupuncture?
Facial acupuncture enhances skin tone and texture, reduces fine lines, and stimulates collagen production. It also improves overall energy flow and promotes a natural, healthy glow. Additionally, it can support relaxation and overall wellness.
Lillian Bridges, a famous Chinese Medicine face reader, talks about the idea of your “Original Face.” I work with the intention that facial acupuncture accesses your original face, and I believe it helps to bring out your true spirit. When your spirit shines, your face glows too!
Is facial acupuncture the same as cosmetic acupuncture!
Yes, these names are interchangeable. I choose to use the phrase “facial acupuncture” because I truly believe the benefits of facial acupuncture aren’t only cosmetic.
What are the side effects of facial acupuncture?
Facial acupuncture is generally well-tolerated. Some clients may experience minor bruising or redness after the treatment. Most clients report feeling deeply relaxed after sessions.
I do not recommend people with chronic, severe headaches receive facial acupuncture, as sending a great deal of qi and blood to the face can sometimes aggravate headaches.
Can I do this program while pregnant?
I do not recommend this series while pregnant. During pregnancy the movement of energy is downward, and we don’t want to counteract that by sending qi and blood to the face.
That said, this series can be wonderful several months postpartum, as many people feel dull and tired after having babies. I first learned facial rejuvenation acupuncture after my daughter was born, and I think it really helped me feel like myself again.
Can I combine facial acupuncture with other treatments?
If you’ve received any fillers, injections, or laser treatments recently, facial acupuncture is not for you. Please wait at least 6 months before trying facial acupuncture.
What happens after completing the 10 sessions?
After completing the 10-session program, I recommend a maintenance session every 4-6 weeks to sustain your results. This really enhances the results, and I highly recommend it. It is almost like the initial series sparks the body’s self-healing capacity, and those results accumulate for awhile afterwards. Maintenance sessions every 4-6 weeks really enhance this process.
For long-term care, you may consider repeating the series every 2-3 years to continue supporting your skin's health and radiance.
Do you offer payment plans?
Definitely. There’s an initial payment of $450, followed by three monthly payments of $433.
Each payment is billed the first of each month to the card on file.

“Lizzie is a truly gifted healer. Her technical expertise combined with her intuitive gifts create a one of a kind experience. Each time I visit I leave feeling so much better - both from the impact of the treatment but also from her kind, caring, and supportive conversation. I can’t recommend Soraluna enough!”
