Life is Better with Acupuncture
The new sliding scale is in effect as of today. As a reminder, the mission of my business is to make acupuncture affordable and accessible to as many people as possible. If the new sliding scale puts acupuncture out of reach for you, please come in anyway and pay what you can. I appreciate everyone’s presence, and always prefer to be busy! As always, I hope to see you soon.
New prices, effective 2/3/26
Initial visit: $55
Follow up visits: $30-55

Distal versus Local Points for Pain
People often ask me if I can treat back pain with clients sitting in recliners, and the answer is yes! I treat back pain multiple times every day, and almost never place needles in the back. The needles don’t have to go where the pain is! For more about this topic, check out this blog post.
