What Is Mei Zen Cosmetic Acupuncture?

Mei Zen is a structured series using fine acupuncture needles at selected facial and body points. At the first visit, Michael learns about your goals, explains his approach, and builds a plan around your comfort and preferences.

Your consultation gives you time to talk through those goals, ask questions, and get a clear sense of the Mei Zen process before choosing your next step.

How It Works

During a session, Michael places fine needles at selected facial and body points and checks in with you throughout the visit. He can explain how he chooses points, what a session may feel like, and how the plan can be adapted to your comfort as the series progresses.

At your consultation, Michael reviews relevant health and skin history and answers your questions about the visit so you can make an informed, comfortable choice about moving forward.

Why a Series Matters: The 5-Week Protocol

Healing Response offers Mei Zen as a 10-treatment series over approximately 5 weeks. Michael can explain the schedule, what to expect between visits, and how the plan may be adjusted to your needs.

The 10 visits give the Mei Zen approach a consistent rhythm, with time to discuss your experience and adjust the plan along the way. Michael will walk you through the schedule during your consultation. Results and experiences vary.

Personalized, Holistic Care

Your plan starts with your preferences and goals. Michael combines his acupuncture experience with a whole-person approach and takes time to explain what each visit will involve.
