How Long Have You Been Pushing Through the Pain?

You've spent years tolerating discomfort, pacing activities, and dealing with exhaustion. Physical therapy, medication, and maybe even corrective surgery have worked to a point, but it’s not enough.  

Perhaps you’ve accepted a level of pain as your “normal.” But it’s not a normal way to exist. Pain is your body’s way of sounding the alarm that you are not fully healed and is asking for a new approach.

You deserve to be listened to, heard, and receive an individual healing plan that specifically addresses your body's needs.

Acupuncture for Pain Relief FAQs

  • According to an NIH study, one of the crucial benefits of acupuncture is that it can facilitate the release of certain neuropeptides in the central nervous system (CNS), eliciting profound physiological effects and even activating self-healing mechanisms. In addition, more acupuncture research has shown benefits in immune regulation and in producing an anti-inflammatory effect on the body.

  • All of our programs require a minimum six-week commitment, but your specifically customized plan will determine how often your treatments will be, which is based on your health history, goals, and a combination of other factors.

  • Headaches and migraine tend to have several underlying causes, such as life circumstances, stress, emotions, diet, gender, and other health conditions. This means they need consistent treatment and maintenance. Acupuncture and Chinese herbal medicine effectively address the underlying factors contributing to the painful condition naturally!

  • Absolutely. Integrative Healing Arts is a very inclusive practice. Feel free to bring in your additional information, together we can look at your existing lab work and other existing documentation to aid understanding. 

  • Yes, it is safe and effective to be treated with acupuncture for pain in the neck and back.

  • Chronic pain is often a signal that something deeper in the body needs attention—whether it’s inflammation, poor circulation, or stuck energy from stress or injury. Acupuncture works by stimulating specific points on the body to activate your nervous system, improve blood flow, and release natural pain-relieving chemicals like endorphins. Over time, it can help reduce both the intensity and frequency of pain while supporting your body’s ability to heal from the inside out.

  • Yes. Acupuncture offers a non-invasive, drug-free way to relieve back pain and sciatica by targeting the root causes, whether it’s muscular tension, nerve compression, inflammation, or stress-related tension. By improving circulation, relaxing tight muscles, and calming the nervous system, acupuncture can ease pain, restore mobility, and help prevent flare-ups, all while supporting your body’s long-term resilience.

  • Very. Migraines and neck pain are often closely linked to stress, muscle tension, hormonal shifts, and nervous system dysregulation. Acupuncture helps by calming overactive pain pathways, reducing inflammation, and releasing tension in the shoulders, neck, and scalp. Many of our clients report fewer migraines, less severe pain, and a greater sense of ease, mentally and physically, after regular treatment.
