Services
Traditional Chinese Acupuncture
Traditional Chinese Acupuncture stimulates energy flow through meridians to restore balance. It treats nervous, endocrine, and digestive system disorders using ultra-fine needles. Patients experience minimal discomfort as practitioners target specific points for chronic and acute conditions.
Western Acupuncture
Western Acupuncture targets musculoskeletal pain by stimulating nerves and muscles. It increases blood flow and natural painkillers for neck, back, and joint issues. Treatments combine evidence-based medicine with needle therapy for localized pain relief.
Cupping Therapy
Cupping Therapy uses suction to improve circulation and reduce inflammation. Glass cups create negative pressure on skin, releasing muscle tension and promoting healing. Patients receive immediate pain relief and improved range of motion during sessions.
Electro-stimulation
Electro-stimulation delivers controlled currents to acupuncture needles for enhanced pain management. It reduces inflammation and improves nerve function for chronic conditions. Treatments target specific frequencies to address muscular, neurological, and myofascial tissue issues effectively.
Scar Infiltration
Scar Infiltration targets painful scar tissue with needle therapy to reduce nerve sensitivity. It breaks down fibrous tissue and restores normal nerve response. Patients experience decreased discomfort and improved mobility in post-surgical recovery cases.

What conditions does acupuncture treat?
We treat chronic pain, migraines, anxiety, arthritis, sports injuries, and post-operative recovery using acupuncture. Our providers address both physical and mental health conditions through personalized treatment plans.
Does insurance cover acupuncture?
Initial consultations may be covered as medical office visits. Contact your provider for acupuncture coverage details. We offer self-pay discounts and assist with insurance documentation requirements.
How many treatments are needed?
Most patients need 5-6 sessions for lasting results. Chronic conditions benefit from maintenance treatments. Acupuncture's cumulative effects provide longer relief with each subsequent session.

Eastern acupuncture balances energy flow through meridians, while Western acupuncture stimulates nerves and muscles for pain relief. We combine both approaches for comprehensive treatment strategies.
