Practiced for ages, acupuncture’s healing powers are increasingly relevant as many people today experience sciatic pain, anxiety and depression, digestion issues, and infertility. Our licensed practitioners are well-versed in techniques to address these types of concerns and restore proper function to your body as a whole.

ChiroCenter acupuncturists have experience in a wide range of healing techniques including electro-acupuncture, acupressure, fire cupping, TuiNa, Gua Sha, and traditional Chinese herbal medicine. Based on your needs and plan for overall well-being, our team can employ the most effective strategy to heal you and help you.

Don’t worry, acupuncture isn’t painful. The needles are incredibly thin and the insertion feels similar to a mosquito bite. And once they’re in? You’ll experience sweet relief and relaxation. Later you’ll also start to feel some of the amazing benefits from your treatment, such as improved sleep, digestion, skin, and mental health.

Wellness isn’t just about our physical bodies, it is also about our minds. That’s why at ChiroCenter, we employ staff trained in massage techniques that not only reduce the tension in your muscles and soft tissue but also provide stress relief and relaxation for your mental wellbeing. We want to ease your aches and pains while also improving your mood.

If you’ve experienced a physical injury or suffered emotional trauma, massage is a viable option for healing. Our therapists use their extensive knowledge of techniques like myofascial release, deep tissue, reflexology, and craniosacral therapy in conjunction with their powerful, peaceful energy to rid your body of the hurt.

The body stores repetitive movement patterns in your muscles. Our treatments are focused on unwinding that tension to restore the muscles to their proper state. We’ll work with you based on your pain and comfort level to decide what type of technique and pressure your body needs. Massage is an individualized experience and our therapists are here to customize your care to your specific concerns.
