What is Acupuncture?

Acupuncture is a holistic therapy that involves inserting very fine needles into specific points of the body to promote healing and ease tension. The needles are sterile, hair-thin, and inserted with precision to activate the body's self-repair mechanisms.
As a trusted alternative therapy, acupuncture is often chosen by patients who want to manage chronic symptoms without relying solely on medications. It's even used to support overall wellness during pregnancy, with protocols tailored to each stage.
This practice is a central part of traditional Chinese medicine and is supported by multiple studies showing its benefits for a wide range of health issues.
Each acupuncture session targets areas of blocked or weakened energy, often referred to as qi. Stimulating these points encourages blood flow, improves nerve signaling, and can positively impact the immune system, mood, digestion, and more.
At our Laguna Beach clinic, acupuncture is offered as a stand-alone therapy or in conjunction with other services like chiropractic care or herbal medicine. Our personalized approach means every patient receives care tailored to their goals, health conditions, and symptoms.
