Working together to create a personal healing journey
Kara “Shamsa” Houck is a licensed Acupuncturist and a Master Teacher and Healer in the Shadhiliyya Sufi path.

Through these methods, Shamsa helps clients open the door to the infinite divinity within each person. Starting at this doorway, the patient and Shamsa work together to cultivate a personal healing journey — a journey through which deep and lasting healing may flourish.

Hello,
I was told that you will have QiGung classes. Is that true?
Lisa
Hi Lisa,
Yep. I’m going to be offering QiGung classes as well as Tai Chi classes in the near future. Right now, the scheduling is being established…so when works best for you?
Peace,
Thomas
My 4.5 year old daughter has food allergies. Would acupuncture help? and is she too young?
Thanks,
Julia
Hi Julia.
Please forgive the lapse in time. I just got back fom Morroco last week.
I can speak from personal experience that acupuncture can help with allergies. One of the reasons I changed professions and went to school was my healing experience with my own allergies which were mostly food. Your daughter may be better served receiving acuPRESSURE (or magnets) as children’s energy moves quickly. I’d advise calling us for a free phone consultation.

Shamsa – love the picture, love the site.
Hi,
I was wondering if acupuncture would help with a lymph node in my neck that doesn’t completely drain. Thanks.
Hi Emily,
That is an interesting question. While it is difficult to diagnose and offer a guarantee that acupuncture will help. I feel comfortable saying that acupuncture can help the body self-regulate. There are specific points for accumulation of any kind. Please give us a call for a free consultation. We will be glad to help in anyway. 301-358-5549
What a wonderful place! My first experience was delightful. I left feeling calm and at peace. I never realized that I entered this space in any other condition. I need to make the time to go regularly. I kindly suggest everyone to do the same. Your body and soul will thank you!
