Painful Conditions
By activating your body’s innate healing mechanisms, Acupuncture works by restoring harmonious flow throughout your body’s tissues, muscles, meridians, and internal organ systems. While invigorating circulation and stimulating the production of natural painkillers (such as endorphins and enkephalins), Acupuncture is a naturally effective way to alleviate acute and chronic painful conditions.
“If there is free flow, there is no pain; if there is pain, there is no free flow”
- Huang Di Nei Jing
WHAT PATIENTS ARE SAYING
"I first went to see Dr. Lauren for numbness and musculoskeletal issues related to pregnancy/postpartum. After a series of initial treatments, that issue resolved and my body is feeling better than it has in a long time. Dr. Lauren routinely solicited my input in order to astutely evolve treatments from session to session, and I think that helped my condition improve more quickly than it might have otherwise. Her approach to TCM is perhaps the most comprehensive I've experienced—and I've been to a number of acupuncturists in Maine and elsewhere; fire cupping, gua sha (and more) are routinely integrated with acupuncture to restorative and healing effect."

WHAT PATIENTS ARE SAYING
"I have been seeing Dr. Lauren for less than a year, but in that year she’s changed my life. She’s helped heal my gut, my sleep is better, and my physical pain is gone. Having seen many drs and specialists over the years, in our first meeting Dr Lauren pinpointed an issue no one else ever addressed. She took the time to ask me detailed questions and came up with answers everyone else missed. After one acupuncture visit and within three days of following her dietary advice, my chronic pain decreased by 80%! Because of her I walk without pain and have been able to wean myself off many medications. Her care and intuition are unmatched! I highly recommend!"

Living in chronic pain can be rife with frustration & grief…
A loss of ability, mobility, and overall comfort in your own body can be disheartening.
Sooner or later, maybe you found yourself down a road wondering if feeling better is possible without a steady supply of medication, supplements, or surgery - if your body can heal on its own...
Maybe you’re here because you are tired of relying on options that might help you get through the day, but you pay for them later with side effects...
Maybe you are here because you are ready to confront the underlying causes of your pain for sustainable relief rather than temporarily numbing or masking it...
Maybe nothing else you’ve tried is touching the pain and you are at your wits end.
Maybe you rather try anything natural before going down the pharmaceutical or surgical route.
In all cases, you are welcome here and not alone.
By treating the root causes of your concerns and tending to your health as a whole, it is my privilege to show you a new path forward where feeling at home in your body again is possible.
