KOTOTAMA ACUPUNCTURE
The Kototama is not a theory or even a teaching. It is the life energy, or ki that gives birth to consciousness in all it's myriad forms."- William Gleason
"Kototama is more than acupuncture- it's sound medicine."
Kototama works with the vibrational principles of life itself, using sound-informed diagnosis and minimal needling to restore deep harmony. Rooted in the ancient Japanese principle of Kototama, or “sacred sounds,” this medicine views vibration as the foundation of healing.
Unlike modern acupuncture, which often focuses on symptoms or uses many points, Kototama emphasizes pulse diagnosis, precise minimal needling, bodywork, and sound. This establishes alignment of body, mind, and spirit at the deepest source.

How it works
Kototama acupuncture restores harmony at the source-aligning body, mind, and spirit through the healing power of vibration.
The body, it's organs and meridians should resonate like notes or strings when tuned to their respected sound frquency. Like an instrument, it simply needs to be tuned to the larger ocean of sound from which is was created.
Acupuncture & Mental Health
The future of mental health is being shaped by looking to the past. Today, there is less emphasis on talk therapy and more awareness of what the body has to say. Eastern medicine has long treated psychological and emotional imbalances through a holistic approach that sees no separation between mind and body, and these wisdom traditions continue to inspire what we now call somatic psychotherapy.
Acupuncture for Psychedelic- Assisted Therapy
Psychedelics can open us to overwhelming, transpersonal, and often ineffable experiences difficult to put into words. Acupuncture helps to ground, resolve, and reorganize these energies. Unlike psychotherapy, that works through dialogue, acupuncture uses the wisdom of the body for insights to settle, take shape, and blossom into meaningful action in one's daily life.
Preperation
Acupuncture helps set the stage for a psychedelic journey by calming the nervous system, grounding the body, and establishing a balanced, receptive state.
Integration
Acupuncture supports psychedelic integration by restoring harmony, easing emotional stress, and allowing insights to land, and become fully rooted in the body
