Acupuncture is a form of traditional Chinese medicine that involves the insertion of thin needles into the skin at specific points on the body to stimulate energy flow and promote healing.
Acupuncture has numerous benefits, including pain relief, stress reduction, improved sleep, increased energy, and enhanced immune system function. It can also help with digestive disorders, menstrual issues, fertility, and more.
Acupuncture can be used to treat a wide range of conditions such as pain, stress, anxiety, insomnia, digestive disorders, and more.
Acupuncture is considered a safe treatment when performed by a licensed and trained practitioner using sterile needles. It is important to disclose any medical conditions or medications you are taking to your practitioner before beginning treatment.
Most people are surprised by how gentle it feels. You may notice a quick tap or a dull, warm “heavy” sensation for a few seconds, then your body settles—many patients relax so deeply they nap during treatment. If anything feels uncomfortable, tell us and we’ll adjust immediately with smaller needles, shallower depth, fewer points, or non-needle options.
It varies by person and condition. After your initial evaluation, we’ll outline a personalized plan.

Most people feel relaxed or pleasantly drowsy afterward. Mild soreness, a tiny bruise, or temporary lightheadedness can occur and typically resolves within 1–2 days. Please tell us if you’re pregnant, on blood thinners, or have any medical conditions.
