CRA Machine
CRA Machine Diagnostics in Hollywood, FL
Contact Reflex Analysis (CRA) is a gentle, non-invasive scan that locates imbalances a standard exam alone misses. CRA is the diagnostic step that shapes your treatment plan, not a treatment in itself. Dr. Tsai has used it in practice for 25 years, and the scan involves no needles and no discomfort.

What it is
What is the CRA Machine and what does it measure?
Contact Reflex Analysis is a non-invasive diagnostic method that measures reflex responses at specific points on the body to identify areas of stress or imbalance. A handheld probe touches each reflex point; nothing pierces the skin. CRA serves as both a starting point and a check-in across your course of care.
CRA targets therapies rather than replacing them: acupuncture, herbal medicine and detox therapy all become more precise once the scan shows where the imbalance sits. Dr. Tsai reads the findings alongside your health history, symptoms and any prior medical evaluation, then builds or refines the plan that follows. CRA is a complementary wellness assessment, and it does not replace diagnosis or care from your medical doctor.

Our process
What happens during a CRA scan?
A CRA scan runs in five steps: consultation, the scan itself, pattern review, a personalized plan and ongoing re-checks. A handheld probe tests reflex points across your body systems, and Dr. Tsai walks you through the findings in plain language.

Ongoing re-checks
CRA is repeated periodically to measure how your plan is working and adjust it.
Your session
Who is a CRA scan for, and what does it feel like?
A CRA scan suits patients with pain that is hard to pinpoint, chronic fatigue, digestive complaints, hormonal imbalance, allergies, weak immune function, sleep problems, or a plan that has stopped working. The scan is quick, gentle and entirely painless.
What to expect during your session
Most patients are surprised by how simple the scan is - a probe touches the skin and nothing else happens.
- A short intake of your current symptoms and history
- A gentle handheld probe touched to reflex points - no needles
- Readings taken across your body systems
- A plain-language walkthrough of what was found
- A treatment plan built from the results

- Chronic Fatigue or low energy

What is CRA, exactly?
Contact Reflex Analysis is a non-invasive diagnostic method that measures reflex responses at specific points on the body to identify areas of stress or imbalance. Your plan is then built around real findings rather than guesswork.
Is CRA a treatment by itself?
No - CRA is a diagnostic step. It informs the therapies that follow, such as acupuncture, herbal medicine or detox therapy, rather than replacing any of them.
Does a CRA scan hurt?
No. A handheld probe is gently touched to reflex points on the body. There are no needles and no discomfort involved.
Does CRA replace a medical diagnosis?
No. CRA is a complementary wellness assessment used alongside your care, not a substitute for evaluation and diagnosis by your medical doctor.
How often is CRA repeated?
At the initial consultation, then every few visits. Repeating the scan shows how your plan is progressing and whether it needs adjusting.
What happens after my CRA session?
Dr. Tsai reviews the findings with you in plain language, then recommends the therapies that fit them - acupuncture, herbs, detox support and others, chosen from what the scan and your history show together.
