Welcome to Acumedica clinic where your well-being is our top priority! If you’re exploring natural ways to improve your health, manage pain, or find relief from stress, you’ve come to the right place.
We’re passionate about making acupuncture accessible, comfortable, and effective for everyone. Whether you’re new to acupuncture or you’ve experienced it before, we’re here to support you on your journey toward balance and wellness.
Acupuncture is an ancient healing practice that originated in China over 2,000 years ago. It’s based on the idea that the body has a natural flow of energy, called Qi (pronounced “chee”). According to Traditional Chinese Medicine (TCM), when this energy flows freely, we feel healthy and balanced. But when Qi is blocked or out of balance, it can lead to discomfort, pain, or illness.
Acupuncture works by stimulating specific points on the body, known as acupoints, using very fine, sterile needles. These points are located along pathways called meridians, which act like energy highways throughout the body. By gently inserting needles into these points, acupuncture helps restore the flow of energy, promoting healing and balance.
From a modern medical perspective, acupuncture has been found to stimulate the nervous system, increase blood circulation, and encourage the body to release natural pain-relieving chemicals like endorphins. It’s thought to activate the body’s natural healing processes, reduce inflammation, and promote physical and emotional well-being.
For many people, acupuncture provides relief from pain and stress without the need for medication. It’s a holistic therapy that addresses the root cause of health concerns rather than just masking symptoms.
People often ask, “What can acupuncture help with?” The answer is—a lot! Acupuncture has been used for centuries to treat a wide variety of conditions. Today, it’s commonly used to support:
We understand that trying something new—especially something involving needles—can feel a little intimidating. That’s why we make it our mission to create a warm, welcoming, and comfortable environment for every client who visits us.
During your initial consultation at Acumedica clinic, we’ll take the time to get to know you and your health goals. We’ll ask about your medical history, lifestyle, and any symptoms you’re experiencing. This holistic approach helps us create a personalized treatment plan tailored to your unique needs.
Once you’re comfortable, you’ll lie down on a treatment table—most people find it relaxing, almost like lying on a massage table. Our practitioner will gently insert very thin, sterile needles into specific points on your body. Most people are surprised by how painless it is! You might feel a mild tingling, warmth, or a sense of heaviness around the needle, but it’s usually very comfortable.
You’ll rest quietly with the needles in place for about 20 to 40 minutes. Many clients describe feeling deeply relaxed, and some even fall asleep during the treatment.
After your session, you may feel calm, energized, or even experience a sense of clarity. Some people notice immediate improvements, while others may need a few sessions to experience the full benefits. We’ll work with you to create a treatment plan that supports your health goals, whether it’s short-term relief or long-term wellness.
