Acupuncture
Our acupuncture treatments use fine needles inserted at specific points to balance energy flow and stimulate natural healing. This FDA-recognized therapy effectively addresses chronic pain, migraines, and emotional disorders by targeting both symptoms and root causes. Patients receive personalized sessions lasting 30-60 minutes with certified practitioners.
Herbal Remedies
Custom herbal formulations complement our acupuncture treatments using time-tested botanical combinations. These natural remedies address digestive issues, hormonal imbalances, and immune system support while minimizing side effects. Our practitioners create individualized herbal protocols based on each patient's specific health profile and treatment goals.
Cupping Therapy
Cupping therapy improves circulation and relieves muscle tension through controlled suction. This ancient technique effectively treats chronic pain, respiratory conditions, and sports injuries by increasing blood flow to targeted areas. Sessions integrate seamlessly with acupuncture for enhanced therapeutic effects.
Gwa Sha
Gwa Sha treatment involves gentle skin scraping to release toxins and improve circulation. This technique effectively addresses chronic inflammation, respiratory issues, and musculoskeletal pain through controlled microtrauma that stimulates healing responses. Patients often experience immediate symptom relief following sessions.
Moxibustion
Moxibustion applies heat to acupuncture points using burning mugwort to enhance treatment effects. This technique improves circulation, reduces pain, and strengthens immune function by stimulating specific energy points. The gentle warming process creates a relaxing experience while promoting deep tissue healing.

Report
I sought out Lotus Springs after dealing with the after effects of a severe Meniere's disease episode for 4 months. I had sudden sensori-neuro hearing loss and near constant tinnitus. I decided to try cranial massage therapy combined with acupuncture and contacted Lotus Springs on the recommendation of a friend. After five weeks of therapy, my tinnitus has calmed down, and my hearing has even measurably improved, which has been astounding to me. Dan Clark has been very professional, my treatment and payment plan is clearly communicated and the clinic has a calm and comfortable atmosphere. If you are looking to try acupuncture, I can recommend Dan Clark and Lotus Springs without reservation.

Report
I had chronic pain on the back side of my hamstring for 8 months. My brother suggested acupuncture bc he had lived in China for 5 years and found it expedited healing in muscles. I gave it a try and was so delighted to have that pain go away after a few treatments. It was such a relief! Dan Clark listened well and really helped me reach my goal of running pain free. I am so appreciative of his knowledge and skill with acupuncture.

Can't believe how amazing acupuncture and scraping works! I was at my wits end with sciatic nerve pain from being pregnant. It was so bad I couldn't sleep. After my first treatment the pain started to get better. I have been going for the last part of my pregnancy and it has definitely helped. Definitely my favorite part of the week. I'm not a fan of needles, but it doesn't hurt. Dan does a great job with communicating and fixing the issues. Would highly recommend.
