What I Treat

As a Licensed Acupuncturist, I support a wide range of conditions. In my practice, I integrate acupuncture, cupping, and other supportive techniques and modalities to help support your nervous system and overall health.

 

Below is an overview of the conditions I often treat. 

PAIN & MUSCULOSKELETAL CONDITIONS

​

Pain is one of the main reasons people come in. If you’re dealing with consistent tension or pain that keeps pulling you out of your day, acupuncture can help you find relief.

​

  • Neck and shoulder tightness

  • Upper or lower back pain

  • Sciatica or piriformis discomfort

  • TMJ and jaw tension

  • Headaches and migraines

  • Muscle tension related to stress, posture, or overuse

​

Treatment is focused on easing pain, releasing muscle tension, and helping your body move more comfortably. I work with areas that feel overworked or restricted and support the body’s natural healing response to improve daily comfort and movement.

WOMEN’S HEALTH & HORMONES

​

I support women through all phases of their hormonal health. From the stresses of monthly cycles to perimenopause and beyond. Some of the concerns I commonly work with include:

​

  • PMS, mood shifts

  • Painful, irregular, or missing periods

  • Hormonal acne

  • Perimenopause transitions

  • Hot flashes and night sweats

  • Emotional changes connected to your cycle

​

Treatment focuses on supporting your body through hormonal changes by easing stress, improving circulation, and supporting overall regulation. Acupuncture can be helpful for menstrual concerns, cycle irregularities, and hormone related symptoms, with care tailored to each phase of life.

STRESS, ANXIETY & EMOTIONAL WELL-BEING

​

Acupuncture has a gentle way of helping your body ease away from stress. Many patients come in feeling overwhelmed, anxious, or depleted. I support:

​

  • Chronic stress

  • Anxiety and overwhelm

  • Sleep issues and insomnia

  • Tension that builds up from trauma or past experiences

  • Nervous system dysregulation

  • Fatigue and burnout symptoms

​

My approach is gentle and grounding. Acupuncture treatments are designed to help your body settle, release built up tension, and move out of chronic stress mode. Many patients notice improved sleep, calmer energy, and better resilience to daily stress over time.

DIGESTION & GUT HEALTH

​

Your digestion is deeply connected to your stress levels and overall wellbeing. I often work with patterns such as:

​

  • Bloating or gas

  • IBS

  • Constipation

  • Loose stools

  • Stress related gut symptoms

  • Slow, heavy digestion

​

I support digestion by helping reduce inflammation, improve how the body processes food, and calm the nervous system. These acupuncture treatments prioritize gut health and are personalized based on how your digestion responds to stress, routine, and daily habits, with the goal of making digestion feel more comfortable and consistent.

HEADACHES & MIGRAINES

​

Many headaches are tied to muscle tension, hormones, or stress, which are all things that acupuncture works well with. 

​

  • Stress headaches

  • Hormonal headaches

  • Tension headaches

  • Migraines

​

I focus on identifying what is contributing to headaches and migraines, most commonly muscle tension, stress, digestion, and circulation. Treatments often include releasing tension in the neck and shoulders while also supporting the nervous system, which can help reduce headache frequency and intensity over time.

GENERAL HEALTH & WELLNESS SUPPORT

​

I also support:

​

  • Low energy and fatigue

  • Nervous system balance

  • Emotional wellness

  • Preventative care and overall wellness
