The AcuGroup Team

Dry needling and acupuncture mastery, one patient at a time.

Our Standard of Care

At AcuGroup, care starts with our commitment to getting you better — finding and treating the causes of your pain and dysfunction so you can move and perform at your best. Muscle pain is among the most common medical complaints, yet effective treatment is hard to find, as few clinicians have both hands-on skill and a command of the science of muscles, pain, and movement. We do, and we know how to use them to get results.

Focused Care for Pain, Movement, and Muscle Function

Bodywork with Needles

The craft we practice at AcuGroup integrates two extensive disciplines: acupuncture, with two millennia of technique behind it, and the century of Western medicine devoted to treating muscle pain with a needle (dry needling). We’ve studied both for decades. To us, the needle is an extension of the fingers; what we do is bodywork with needles. Every visit is one-on-one and unhurried, the kind of attention this work requires.

Every provider at AcuGroup is trained in our Method, including our women’s health and functional medicine team, so you get the same standard of care from anyone you see.
