Back pain, hip pain, pelvic pain, sciatica

What to Expect

Your first visit starts with a conversation.
We go over your symptoms, pregnancy stage, health history, stress levels, sleep, pain, and what support would feel most meaningful right now.
Step 2: Personalized Treatment
Your treatment is customized specifically for you.
Acupuncture uses very fine needles placed gently at specific points on the body to support regulation, circulation, pain relief, and nervous system balance.
Most patients find treatments deeply relaxing.
Step 3: You Leave Feeling More Supported
Many patients notice improvements in stress levels, sleep, tension, pain, or nausea over the course of treatment.
Care plans are individualized based on your goals and what stage of pregnancy or postpartum recovery you’re in.
