Jade Vitality Far-Infrared Heating Mat
SearchLight Medical is happy to announce a new non-invasive treatment that will work to relieve pain, stress and anxiety all while increasing circulation and balancing your Qi energy. Jade Vitality far-infrared heating pads are comprised of Jade and Tourmaline gemstones that provide a safe, deep penetrating heat to relieve pain, increase circulation and restore movement. Jade Vitality Mat uses an advanced heating technology that does not produce any dangerous electromagnetic fields, so unlike other heating pads, you will not be exposed to any harmful electromagnetic radiation. You can enjoy the Jade Vitality Mat with confidence!
Far-Infrared (FIR) Heat is the safest form of energy that is directly transmitted into objects due to its specific wavelength. This FIR heat has global effects on the body such as decreasing inflammation, improving sleep and improving circulation.
Jade gemstones provide even, uniform heat and deep penetrating far-infrared energy to bring you relief. It also removes blockages in your Qi energy flow within the meridians. Tourmaline has the unique ability to generate high concentrations of negative ions when heated. Negative ions are invisible molecules in the air naturally produced by waterfalls, beaches and mountain tops. When inhaled, negative ions improve your mood, combat depression and boost your energy. It helps to clear blocked sinuses and improves allergy symptoms. It amplifies the effects of infrared heat to contribute to your overall health and well-being.

Hi Dr. Mallis - I am probably feeling the best I have in a long time. My energy is consistently better. I am motivated to get paperwork done at 9:30PM on a Sunday night. That is not the norm. Overall, feeling encouraged, hopeful and better all around. My husband says it is very noticeable. My mood is much lighter. Thank you so much!

Being a patient of Dr. Mallis for three years has enabled me to grow in so many ways - physically and emotionally. Some acupuncturists do not have a medical degree such as Dr. Mallis does which assists her in utilizing her knowledge and expertise to explain and interact with you while providing you with her services. My chronic pain and anxiety were the primary reasons for seeking her services. However, unfortunately, when a 2nd-3rd degree burn occurred on my arm, her medical knowledge and treatment regimen were indispensable to my healing process. Her techniques definitely augmented the healing of my burn. Traces of my burn are now negligible. Dr. Mallis' preliminary assessment of you is vital and comprehensive. She is thorough, gentle, knowledable and kind. These are essential traits when describing a successful acupuncturist. I am dellighted to have found such a dedicated professional in my life. I hope you have the same opportunity.

I have been a patient at SearchLight Medical since 2010. Although I live over 50 miles away, I chose Dr. Mallis because she is a Board Certified Medical Doctor as well as a licensed acupuncture provider. Dr. Mallis has treated me successfully with acupuncture for chronic depression as well as joint pain (hip & shoulders), sinusitis and leg cramps.
Dr. Mallis is compassionate and professional. She has a remarable commitment to her work and her patients' well-being. Each treatment is based on the patient's needs at that moment in time - this is not a "one size fits all" approach!
I recently tried reflexology - provided by Maggie, a licensed nurse who works with Dr. Mallis at SearchLight Medical. Both Maggie & the reflexology massages are delightful! It's a pleasure to recommend Dr. Mallis & SearchLight Medical!

I am a psychotherapist and have been seeing Dr. M for about a year doing acupuncture. I originally came for some physical complaints...IBS..shoulder pain...sinus pain. Those problems were much lessened, but I would say that underlying my physical issues were deep emotional issues...and much to my joy and surprise, I have truly changed in very profound ways. I am thrilled that I was able to have an unconventional treatment experience that kind of solidified my years of psychotherapy. And of course I need to mention that I love Laurie, find her wise with a great sense of humanity and humor.
