Services
Acupuncture
Our acupuncture treatments use fine needles to stimulate specific points and restore energy flow. This ancient practice effectively addresses pain management, stress reduction, and various health conditions. Patients receive customized treatment plans combining traditional techniques with modern medical understanding for optimal results.
Chinese Herbs
We prescribe customized herbal formulas to complement acupuncture treatments. These time-tested remedies address digestive issues, hormonal imbalances, and chronic conditions. Our practitioners combine traditional knowledge with functional medicine principles to create safe, effective supplement regimens tailored to individual needs.
Cupping Therapy
This traditional technique uses controlled suction to relieve muscle tension and improve circulation. Cupping effectively treats sports injuries, chronic pain, and respiratory conditions by promoting blood flow and releasing deep tissue restrictions. Sessions integrate seamlessly with acupuncture treatments for enhanced results.
Physical Medicine
Our approach combines acupuncture with manual therapies to address postural imbalances and musculoskeletal pain. Techniques include therapeutic massage, gua sha, and targeted muscle release to correct alignment issues and improve functional movement patterns for lasting pain relief.
Energy Healing
We incorporate elemental energy practices to restore qi flow and emotional equilibrium. This holistic approach combines Reiki, Tai Qi principles, and environmental energy balancing to address stress-related conditions and support overall wellness through mind-body-spirit integration.

I can't say enough good things about my experience at North Park Acupuncture. I've been going regularly for about a year. They treat me like family but are always professional, and the care I receive from them has been exactly what I'd hoped for. They've become the most important component of my healthcare and I'm so grateful for them.
