La Jolla Village Acupuncture

La Jolla Village Acupuncture has been dedicated to providing comprehensive acupuncture and Oriental medicine services in San Diego since 1987. Our practice specializes in treating respiratory, gastrointestinal, gynecological, musculoskeletal, and neurological disorders through time-honored techniques including acupuncture, herbal therapy, moxibustion, cupping, and massage. With over three decades of clinical experience, we combine traditional Chinese medicine principles with modern healthcare practices to address chronic pain, immune system deficiencies, and women's health issues. Our founder, Dr. Martha Odegaard, brings extensive international training from China and Japan, along with bilingual English-Spanish capabilities, to serve a diverse patient base. We maintain strict patient confidentiality while working with insurance providers to facilitate treatment access.

Our treatment philosophy emphasizes restoring the body's natural energy balance through meridian stimulation, a practice recognized by the World Health Organization for its efficacy in over 35 common illnesses. We offer personalized treatment plans tailored to individual needs, with sessions typically involving 20-30 minutes of needle therapy. Our clinic accepts cash, checks, and major credit cards, and requires payment at the time of service. We have actively contributed to community health initiatives through volunteer work in Mexico and Tijuana, and our director has held leadership roles in professional associations. Our commitment to excellence is demonstrated through continuous education, adherence to strict licensing standards from the California Board of Quality Assurance, and a track record of successfully treating thousands of patients.
