Acupuncture

Acupuncture is often used as part of an integrative plan to support:

​

• Pain patterns and muscle tension

• Stress load and nervous-system regulation

• Headaches and migraines

• Sleep support

• Digestive comfort

• Women’s health support

• Overall wellness and prevention

 

Everyone’s plan is individualized. We’ll discuss what makes sense for your goals and health history.

Where East meets West. We blend traditional acupuncture with a practical, whole-person lens:

​

• Thoughtful intake (we listen first)

• Targeted treatment plan

• Guidance on supportive lifestyle, nutrition, and recovery habits when helpful

• Optional integration with primary care and your wider wellness plan

Your first acupuncture appointment typically includes:

​

1. Short intake + goals

2. Treatment plan discussion

3. Needling session (quiet, relaxing time, 60-minute appointment)

4. Next-step recommendations (frequency + what to watch for)

 

How many sessions do I need?
That depends on your goals, timeline, and how long symptoms have been present. Many patients start with a short series, then taper to maintenance as appropriate.

Does acupuncture hurt?
Most people feel minimal sensation. You may feel a brief pinch or a dull “pressure” feeling.

Is acupuncture safe?
When performed by a trained professional, acupuncture is generally considered safe. We’ll review your history and any contraindications.

Can I combine acupuncture with primary care or physical therapy?
Yes—many patients do. We can coordinate your plan around what you’re already doing.
