Tanaka Nielsen Maki in Carlsbad's La Costa district specializes in Japanese-style acupuncture and moxibustion from her Camino De Los Coches practice. The Pacific College of Oriental Medicine graduate holds a B.A. in Psychology from Tulane University and NCCAOM Diplomate in Acupuncture certification, applying the gentler needle techniques characteristic of the Japanese acupuncture tradition — a subtler sensory approach that complements the restorative movement practices at Peace Love And Yoga. Japanese-style treatment uses thinner-gauge needles and shallower insertion depths than standard TCM protocols, making it suitable for needle-sensitive patients and pediatric cases. The psychology background informs a mind-body treatment model where needle placement and moxibustion address both somatic pain and psychosomatic stress patterns, a clinical intersection with the aesthetic and dermal applications at NakedMD Med Spa where facial acupuncture protocols overlap with cosmetic medicine. Moxibustion sessions apply controlled Artemisia vulgaris combustion at specific acupuncture points to increase local circulation, stimulate immune response, and address cold-pattern conditions identified through traditional Japanese palpation diagnosis.
