What Is Bodywork?

Bodywork refers to therapeutic techniques that use gentle manipulation, breathwork, or energy medicine to promote physical and emotional well-being. At Ashburn Laser & Skincare MedSpa, CST and VMT are used to release fascial and lymphatic tension, improve circulation, and clear energetic blockages for total body healing.

Craniosacral Therapy (CST)

CST is a gentle, hands-on technique that works with the body’s nervous, fascial, and lymphatic systems to release tension and restore balance. By unwinding restricted fascia, it helps calm the nervous system, improve blood flow, and address the root causes of mental, emotional, and physical imbalances.

What is fascia?

Fascia is a connective tissue network that surrounds every organ, muscle, and nerve—like a body wide web. When stressed, it tightens and disrupts circulation and communication between systems. CST helps release these restrictions, activating the parasympathetic (“rest and restore”) response for deep relaxation and healing.

Visceral Manipulation Therapy (VMT)

VMT is a gentle manual therapy that helps internal organs move freely within the body. By releasing tension in the connective tissues surrounding organs, VMT can ease issues like abdominal pain, bloating, constipation, or restricted mobility. Healthy organ movement supports proper digestion, circulation, and overall vitality.

What to Expect

Each session begins with a consultation to review your health and emotional background, ensuring a personalized plan. Treatments are performed in a calm, private setting. You’ll recline comfortably while your specialist uses gentle touch or light pressure to restore balance. Reiki healing can be added for an enhanced energetic experience.

Benefits of Bodywork

After treatment, most patients report feeling deeply relaxed, centered, and reconnected with their bodies. Bodywork can relieve pain, reduce stress, improve energy flow, and enhance overall wellness. It can also be paired with aesthetic treatments for a truly holistic approach to mind-body rejuvenation.

Chronic & Autoimmune Conditions in Ashburn, VA

Living with a chronic or autoimmune condition can be overwhelming — affecting not only your physical health but also your emotional well-being. At Ashburn Laser & Skincare MedSpa, Dr. Noosha takes a holistic, patient-centered approach to uncover the root causes behind your symptoms and guide your body back toward balance. For integrative care that supports both body and mind, schedule a consultation in Ashburn or McLean, VA, or book online today.

What Is a Chronic Condition?

A chronic condition is a long-term health concern that often requires ongoing care and support. Many chronic issues are linked to underlying autoimmune dysfunction or imbalances that may go undiagnosed through traditional methods.

Common conditions we address include:

  • Skin concerns: Psoriasis, eczema, rosacea, acne
  • Chronic headaches & migraines
  • Digestive issues: IBS, IBD (Crohn’s & Colitis), food sensitivities
  • Autoimmune disorders: Hashimoto’s, lupus, MS, RA, MCAS, CIRS, celiac disease, pernicious anemia
  • Other chronic conditions: Lyme disease, chronic fatigue, fibromyalgia, hormonal imbalances (PCOS, endometriosis), and neuropsychiatric conditions

The team can also use Botox® therapeutically to relieve chronic headaches or migraines while improving aesthetic concerns such as fine lines.

Understanding Chronic & Autoimmune Conditions

Acute issues like sunburns or hives typically heal with time. Chronic and autoimmune conditions, however, can feel relentless — leaving you fatigued, frustrated, and emotionally drained. At Ashburn Laser & Skincare MedSpa, we focus on identifying what’s triggering your body’s response rather than labeling it as “attacking itself.” By uncovering hidden imbalances or environmental factors, we can help the body return to its natural state of healing.

Our philosophy emphasizes natural, minimally invasive therapies to manage symptoms, support healing, and reduce dependence on harsh medications whenever possible.

What to Expect During Your Consultation

Your visit begins with an in-depth evaluation focused on you — not just your diagnosis. Dr. Noosha and her team take time to understand your symptoms, history, and lifestyle, then perform a detailed exam and advanced functional lab testing. This comprehensive approach helps identify nutritional, hormonal, environmental, or energetic imbalances that may be contributing to your condition.

Personalized Treatment Plans

Every treatment plan is tailored to your unique needs and goals. Depending on your condition, your plan may include:

  • Anti-inflammatory or elimination diet guidance
  • Trigger identification & detoxification
  • Nutrient and mineral supplementation
  • Energetic healing & stress management
  • Hormone balancing
  • Bodywork or light-based therapies (IPL)
  • Medications or referrals when appropriate

The goal is to empower you to understand your body, reduce symptoms, and restore vitality — helping you live a balanced, fulfilling life without being defined by your condition.

Energy (Vibration, Sound & Light) Therapy in Ashburn, VA

Your body is made up of energy — when that energy becomes imbalanced or blocked, it can affect your physical, emotional, and spiritual well-being. At Ashburn Laser & Skincare MedSpa, Dr. Noosha offers holistic energy therapies that help restore balance and harmony within your system. These gentle treatments support deep relaxation, healing, and renewal from the inside out.

Schedule your consultation in Ashburn or McLean, VA, or book online today.

What Is Energetic Healing?

Energetic healing is a holistic therapy focused on rebalancing the body’s natural energy flow. Rooted in Traditional Chinese Medicine (TCM) and Ayurvedic principles, this practice views the body as an interconnected energy system rather than isolated parts.

When energy becomes stagnant or blocked, it can manifest as fatigue, stress, pain, or emotional imbalance. Energetic healing works to clear these blockages, restoring flow, vitality, and alignment between mind, body, and spirit.

At Ashburn Laser & Skincare MedSpa, energetic healing can be offered on its own or combined with other treatments to enhance both inner and outer wellness.

Types of Energetic Healing

AMPCOIL Therapy

A noninvasive, vibration-based technology that uses sound and electromagnetic frequencies to help balance the body’s energetic field and promote cellular harmony.

Reiki Healing

An ancient Japanese practice that channels life force energy through the practitioner’s hands to encourage the body’s natural healing response. During treatment, your practitioner may gently place or hover their hands above specific areas of your body, helping to clear stagnation and rebalance your energy flow. Gentle breathing and meditative techniques help deepen relaxation and awareness.

Reiki can also be combined with bodywork therapies such as Craniosacral Therapy (CST) or Visceral Manipulation Therapy (VMT) for a truly integrative healing experience.

At our medspa, energetic healing may also be paired with facial or aesthetic treatments to enhance relaxation and promote a glowing, balanced complexion.

Who Can Benefit from Energy Therapy?

Energy therapies are ideal for anyone seeking gentle, holistic support for overall well-being — especially those who are sensitive to traditional treatments or dealing with chronic stress.

These therapies can help:

  • Reduce stress, anxiety, and emotional tension
  • Ease headaches, facial pain, or muscle tightness
  • Improve mental clarity and focus
  • Restore inner balance and self-confidence
  • Support deep relaxation and energy flow

Energetic therapies at Ashburn Laser & Skincare MedSpa create space for the body’s natural healing intelligence to emerge — helping you feel lighter, clearer, and more aligned.

Functional Lab Testing in Ashburn & Loudoun County, VA

At Ashburn Laser & Skincare MedSpa, Dr. Noosha takes an integrative, whole-body approach to wellness — looking beyond symptoms to uncover the root cause of imbalance. Through Functional Lab Testing, we gain deep insight into your body’s biochemistry, hormones, gut health, and more, allowing us to create a highly personalized plan to restore balance and vitality from within.

Because skin health begins in the gut and is influenced by the mind-body connection, these advanced tests help us understand your health on every level — physical, mental, and emotional. Schedule your consultation in Ashburn or McLean, VA, or book online today.

What Is Functional Lab Testing?

Functional lab testing goes beyond the basic diagnostics used in traditional medicine. While conventional labs often focus on identifying disease, functional testing explores why imbalances occur — uncovering the underlying factors behind chronic symptoms, inflammation, fatigue, hormonal changes, and digestive issues.

Using advanced saliva, urine, stool, and blood analyses, we gain a comprehensive understanding of how your body’s systems are functioning together. We then combine these results with your personal health history to create both short- and long-term plans for lasting improvement.

Types of Functional Testing Offered

Gastrointestinal Testing

Evaluates the microbiome and identifies gut imbalances such as IBS, SIBO, bloating, or leaky gut.

Comprehensive Hormone Testing

Assesses sex hormones (estrogen, progesterone, testosterone, DHEA-S), adrenal and stress hormones (cortisol and cortisone), melatonin, and liver detox status.

Nervous System & Endocrine Testing

Includes complete thyroid panels to detect early autoimmune reactivity and specialized neurotransmitter panels for cognitive or emotional concerns.

Mold, Toxin & Heavy Metal Testing

Detects hidden environmental exposures that may contribute to inflammation, fatigue, or chronic illness.

Metabolic & Nutrient Testing

Analyzes vitamin, mineral, and metabolic function to identify nutritional deficiencies or absorption issues.

Food & Environmental Sensitivity Testing

Uncovers inflammatory triggers that may affect digestion, skin health, and energy levels.

Autoimmune & Immune System Testing

Identifies early signs of immune dysfunction or inflammatory response before disease progression.

Genetic Testing (3X4 Blueprint Test)

Dr. Noosha utilizes the 3X4 Genetics Test, which analyzes how your genes interact and influence overall organ and cellular function. This advanced test offers 36 key insights and personalized recommendations, empowering you to take a proactive approach to long-term health.

What to Expect

During your consultation, Dr. Noosha will discuss which functional labs best suit your health goals and symptoms. Testing is completely optional and can be performed at home or through a local phlebotomist. Once results are received, she will design a targeted plan that may include nutrition optimization, supplements, detoxification, and lifestyle adjustments.

Note: Functional and genetic testing are not included in the cost of your visit but are available at discounted patient rates.

Gut Health in Ashburn & Loudoun County

Healthy, glowing skin begins from within — and that starts with your gut. When your gut is functioning optimally, it can absorb nutrients efficiently and eliminate toxins effectively, supporting both your internal health and your skin’s radiance.

At Ashburn Laser & Skincare MedSpa, Dr. Noosha offers personalized evaluations and holistic gut restoration programs to help you look and feel your best. Schedule your consultation by calling our Ashburn or McLean offices, or book online today.

What is Gut Health?

Gut health refers to the balance and function of your gastrointestinal (GI) system, which digests food, absorbs nutrients, and removes waste. Because your gut is deeply connected to your brain and hormonal systems, keeping it balanced is essential for your energy, mood, skin, and overall well-being.

What is the 5R Framework for Gut Restoration?

A healthy digestive system is vital for overall health. Disruptions in gut function can lead to more than bloating or discomfort—they can contribute to autoimmune conditions, hormonal imbalances, and even skin issues such as acne, eczema, and rosacea.

Dr. Noosha follows the 5R Framework for Gut Restoration to help rebalance your system:

Remove, Replace, Reinoculate, Repair, and Rebalance.

This approach addresses the root causes of gut dysfunction for lasting results and improved vitality.

Signs of Poor Gut Health

An imbalanced gut can affect far more than digestion—it can show up on your skin and impact your energy, hormones, and emotional well-being.
Common symptoms include:

  • Acne and inflammation
  • Eczema or psoriasis
  • Rosacea and rashes
  • Dry or dull skin
  • Chronic fatigue and restless sleep

When your gut is unbalanced, toxin buildup and inflammation can interfere with collagen production and natural repair, affecting both your skin and self-confidence.

How to Improve Gut Health

The first step is identifying what’s disrupting your gut. Dr. Noosha takes a functional and integrative approach, looking beyond conventional labels like IBS or SIBO to uncover the true root cause.
Your personalized plan may include:

  • Nutritional and lifestyle guidance
  • Targeted supplements
  • Energetic healing and nervous system regulation
  • Strategies to restore microbiome balance and repair the gut lining

Healing begins from within—by nurturing your digestive system, you create the foundation for better health and glowing skin.

Benefits of a Healthy Gut

Restoring your gut health can lead to:

  • Clearer, healthier skin
  • Improved digestion and nutrient absorption
  • Balanced energy and mood
  • Better sleep quality
  • Reduced stress and inflammation

A healthy gut supports every system in your body—enhancing not just how you feel, but how you look.

Hormone Imbalance Treatment in Ashburn & Loudoun County

Hormones act as your body’s chemical messengers, coordinating essential processes that affect your physical, mental, and emotional well-being. When these messengers fall out of balance, the effects can be felt in every aspect of your life.

At Ashburn Laser & Skincare MedSpa, Dr. Noosha takes a functional and holistic approach to hormone health, offering both basic and advanced lab testing to identify imbalances and restore your body’s natural equilibrium.

Schedule a consultation at our Ashburn or McLean locations, or book online today.

What is a Hormone Imbalance?

Your endocrine system produces and regulates over 50 different hormones that control vital body functions including:

  • Metabolism
  • Mood and cognitive health
  • Reproductive function
  • Sleep cycles
  • Stress response

When these hormones become too high, too low, or imbalanced relative to one another, the result can be fatigue, mood swings, weight changes, and other chronic or subtle symptoms that impact your daily life. Maintaining hormonal balance is essential for optimal health and longevity.

What Are the Symptoms of a Hormone Imbalance?

Symptoms vary depending on which hormones are affected and how your body responds.
Traditional lab panels often test only basic sex hormones such as estrogen, progesterone, and testosterone. However, functional testing provides a more complete picture—measuring key metabolites and pathways through urine and saliva testing for more accurate insight.

Hormonal changes may occur naturally with age or be triggered by factors such as:

  • Stress, concussions, or traumatic brain injury (TBI)
  • Birth control or prior steroid use
  • Adrenal dysfunction
  • Nutrient deficiencies
  • Genetics

Both men and women experience shifts in hormone levels over time, especially with declining sex hormones. These changes can lead to:

  • Unexplained weight gain or loss of muscle tone
  • Fatigue and low energy
  • Sleep disturbances
  • Brain fog or difficulty concentrating
  • Mood changes or irritability
  • Hair thinning or dry skin
  • Low libido
  • Vaginal dryness (women)
  • Erectile dysfunction (men)

If you feel “off” or suspect your hormones may be out of balance, a functional hormone evaluation can help identify the root cause.

What Tests Are Used to Diagnose Hormone Imbalance?

At Ashburn Laser & Skincare MedSpa, your evaluation begins with a thorough review of your symptoms, medical history, and lifestyle.

When appropriate, we use advanced functional lab testing such as the DUTCH PLUS Comprehensive Hormone Panel, which analyzes hormone levels, metabolites, and patterns through an at-home urine and saliva test.
Additional testing may include:

  • Thyroid panels
  • Micronutrient testing
  • Adrenal and stress hormone assessment

These insights allow for a highly individualized treatment plan, identifying not just deficiencies but how your hormones are interacting across systems.

How is Hormone Imbalance Treated?

Our team personalizes each treatment plan to your unique profile, focusing first on natural and integrative methods before considering prescription options.
Treatment may include:

  • Herbal or botanical blends to support hormone production and metabolism
  • Nutrition and lifestyle optimization
  • Stress management techniques
  • Sleep and adrenal health support

When necessary, bioidentical hormone replacement therapy (HRT) may be prescribed under the supervision of our qualified medical professionals. Our approach always begins conservatively, using non-invasive methods first and progressing as needed.

Follow-up visits are scheduled regularly to monitor your progress, evaluate your lab results, and fine-tune your plan for long-term balance and vitality.
