Acupuncture is an integrative medicine system that involves stimulating specific points on the body using thin needles. It dates back to ancient times and aims to balance the body's life force (qi) and remove blockages along meridians. In Western medicine, acupuncture stimulates the central nervous system to promote relaxation and healing.
Acupuncture is used to address various health conditions, including pain management, prenatal care, digestive health, mental and emotional well-being, gynecological health, preventative care, and general wellness.

August 2, 2023This place is the BEST and I’m so grateful for it. Affordable acupuncture 🙌 Brittany, Justine and Lauren are all amazing!

May 12, 2023Practitioner here sold me a supplement for inflammation that was contraindicated by my other medical conditions and actually sent my liver panel out of whack. Seems like no practitioners here are actually capable of understanding medical records, despite demanding them before treatment, or keeping up on the scientific research around supplements. Avoid avoid avoid. Plus the owner is anti vaccine 😬 ETA: I'm disturbed that the owner finds it acceptable to post my information on the Internet like my address. I pray that others who have negative experiences with this business aren't similarly bullied. ETA2: I've also come to discover that their EMR system isn't secure. Yikes. I've also been Facebook stalked by an employee accusing me of malice. Beware!

May 7, 2023I've been going to this clinic for almost 15 years, followed them wherever they set up shop. Even since moving from Philly to San Diego, I make it a point to stop in and get a tune-up whenever I'm visiting home. I swear it seems like I've had a 7 year nap whenever I leave. In the past, after working with Lauren using acupuncture and herbal formulas, I've seen my iron labs shift positively away from anemic levels as well as almost vanished extremely painful and irregular periods. Their apothecary also keeps me stocked up for seasonal cold/flu and allergy issues. Grateful for their integrative and attuned approach. The space feels very safe and welcoming.
