Our Services

At Healthqi Acupuncture, you can explore a range of integrative services designed to enhance your well-being. Our primary focus is on acupuncture treatments aimed at alleviating pain and addressing mental health concerns, supported by additional therapies that complement your healing journey. Whether you seek pain relief or wellness enhancement, our personalized approach ensures you receive the best care tailored to your needs.

Acupuncture Treatments

Acupuncture is the main modality of traditional Chinese medicine (TCM). It involves the insertion of thin, sterile, single-use needles into specific points on the body which transmits signals to the brain and stimulates the person’s central nervous and endocrine system. This triggers the release of “feel-good” hormones and modulates the body’s response to pain. First initial and follow up appointments have acupuncture as the primary treatment followed by supporting therapies if applicable.  

Supporting Therapies

These additional treatments are designed to enhance the benefits of acupuncture. Services such as cupping therapy, gua sha, e-stim, tui na, moxibustion, ear seeds, and lifestyle modification may or may not be included with your acupuncture sessions depending on your needs, at no extra cost. 

In fact, these therapies can contribute to improving your overall treatment experience by promoting relaxation, improving circulation, and reducing inflammation. At Healthqi Acupuncture, our acupuncturist combines these effective techniques to create a holistic approach, allowing you to heal more effectively and achieve a balanced state of well-being.

Commonly Treated Conditions

After exploring various health concerns, you’ll find that Healthqi Acupuncture addresses a wide range of conditions to promote overall wellness. From pain management to mental health, our treatments focus on the root causes, delivering effective relief through personalized care. This holistic approach empowers you to regain balance and vitality in your life.

Pain Management

A meta-analysis in the Journal of Pain confirms that acupuncture is effective for chronic pain. At Healthqi Acupuncture, we provide targeted treatments to help reduce inflammation, improve circulation, and support natural healing that offers real relief that isn’t just a bandaid. If other treatments haven’t worked, our clinic may be the solution you’ve been looking for.

Acupuncture is a highly effective treatment for a variety of conditions, including muscle and joint pain (such as back pain, neck pain, knee pain, shoulder pain, and sciatica), sports injuries (sprains, strains, and tendonitis), and post-surgical recovery (pain management and scar healing). It is also beneficial for chronic pain conditions like arthritis, gout, fibromyalgia, migraines, and TMJ, as well as nerve-related pain such as sciatica, neuropathy, and carpal tunnel syndrome. 

Acupuncture works by reducing pain and inflammation through endorphin release and improved blood circulation, accelerating healing by promoting tissue repair, and enhancing mobility by relaxing muscles and restoring balance. Additionally, it offers long-term pain management without the side effects of medication, providing a natural and holistic approach to wellness.

Mental Health & Emotional Well-Being

Research indicates that acupuncture can be an effective treatment option. For instance, a systematic review and meta-analysis found that acupuncture therapy has beneficial effects for patients with generalized anxiety disorder compared to controls. Additionally, acupuncture has been shown to be more effective and safer than no treatment, control acupuncture, and antidepressants for depression. If traditional treatments haven’t provided the relief you’re seeking, our clinic offers acupuncture services that may help you achieve emotional well-being. Common conditions treated are anxiety, depression, crying spells, stress, and overall mental health. 

Systemic and Internal Health 

Acupuncture is a time-honored practice that not only addresses specific ailments but also promotes overall systemic and internal health. By stimulating precise points on the body, acupuncture can influence various physiological functions, contributing to holistic well-being.

Commonly treated conditions include chronic fatigue syndrome, fibromyalgia, irritable Bowel Syndrome (IBS), digestive disorders (e.g., diarrhea, indigestion, constipation), sleep disorders (e.g., insomnia, poor sleep quality), women’s health (e.g., menstrual irregularities, UTIs, infertility, PCOS), chronic migraines or tension headaches. Acupuncture supports systemic health by regulating the autonomic functions, reducing inflammation, and supporting the metabolic system. Additionally, we hold a certification in Food Therapy for a Successful Pregnancy, allowing us to integrate nutritional guidance into treatment plans to optimize reproductive health. If other treatments haven’t worked, our clinic may be the solution you’ve been looking for.

Acupuncture has also been employed to address issues like hypertension, diabetes, skin conditions, turning a breech baby, cancer post-treatment symptoms, and addiction withdrawal symptoms.

After visiting Healthqi Acupuncture, you will feel the warmth and inclusivity we embody. Our practice is designed for everyone, regardless of background, identity, or health experience.
