Microneedling

Micro needling is a cosmetic procedure that involves pricking the skin with very short, fine needles. These needles create a micro trauma which activates your body’s natural healing response to produce collagen and elastin (the proteins that make up your skin).

Micro needling is a cosmetic procedure that involves pricking the skin with very short, fine needles. These needles create a micro trauma which activates your body’s natural healing response to produce collagen and elastin (the proteins that make up your skin). This makes your skin look and feel tighter and smoother, and it increases absorption of topical serums.

Micro needling can be used to treat wrinkles, age spots, scars, acne, stretch marks, hair growth and generally even out your skin tone without any painful surgery or injections.

It is important to know that treatments are cumulative, you may likely see some results after your first session, but you should plan on having at least 4 treatments to see significant results. Unlike botox which temporarily paralyzes the facial muscles, micro needling improves blood flow and increases thickness and elasticity in your skin and it is a great natural alternative.

Facilitated Stretching

Craniosacral

B12 Injections

Ultrasonic Cavitation

Ultrasonic cavitation is a cosmetic procedure that used to break apart fat deposits, tighten skin and reduce wrinkles and blemishes.

Dr. Amy Tarquini ND

Dr. Amy found her passion for helping others achieve optimal wellness after years of struggling through her own chronic disease. When she was only 14, she was diagnosed with autoimmune disease that would be treated (unsuccessfully) for several years and multiple rounds of heavy pharmaceutical agents. It was only after discovering the role of food as medicine that she began to discover the true healing powers of nature. Dr. Amy strives to empower all individuals achieve this same innate healing wisdom of the body using effective, personalized interventions. Dr. Amy believes that true health is not just the absence of disease, but rather the attainment of balance. To her, optimal wellness takes the shape of resilience to life’s circumstances, laughter, curiosity, and kindness.

Dr. Amy completed her undergraduate degree at the University of South Carolina where she graduated Magna Cum Laude with a Bachelor of Science in Public Health, and a minor in the Spanish language. She went on to complete a four-year CNME accredited naturopathic program at the National University of Natural Medicine in Portland, Oregon, as well as a residency at the largest integrative medical clinic in the Southeast that specializes in functional medicine and chronic disease.

Dr. Amy holds an active naturopathic medical license in both California and Oregon and is also a Certified Nutrition Specialist (CNS) through the American Nutrition Association.
