Orthopedic Acupuncture & Dry Needling
Relieve pain at the source — targeted relief for pain, posture, and performance.
Orthopedic acupuncture is a musculoskeletal based system of acupuncture. It addresses the body’s structural imbalances by stimulating motor points — the neurological junctions between muscle and nerve — to reset dysfunctional muscle activity and improve movement patterns.
Dry needling is a myofascial needle technique that targets "trigger points" — tight, irritable bands of muscle that can cause localized pain or refer pain to other areas. By deactivating these trigger points, it helps relax muscle tension, interrupt the pain cycle, and improve circulation, nerve signaling, and tissue healing.
This approach is ideal for:
This work is powerful for anyone feeling stuck in their body — whether due to old injuries, chronic muscle tension, nerve impingement, or simply the wear-and-tear of daily life.

- Pain that hasn't fully resolved with conventional care

Eastern Dietary TherapyRebuild energy, support digestion, and reconnect with food as medicine.
In traditional Chinese medicine, nutrition is more than what you eat — it’s how you eat, when you eat, and what your body does with that nourishment. Food becomes medicine when it's aligned with your body's needs and gives you agency to nourish yourself on a daily basis. We look at food through a unique lens:
We help you reframe nutrition as a flexible, enjoyable tool for vitality — one that supports your energy, mindset, and healing at every stage of life. |

Cupping TherapyRelieve pain, boost immunity, and aid digestion with this ancient healing therapy.
At JOYSOMA Acupuncture, we offer cupping on specific areas of the body as a supportive therapy to acupuncture, rather than a standalone treatment. This targeted treatment helps regulate blood circulation to relieve pain and inflammation through myofascial decompression. Cupping can help with pain, injury recovery, sports rehabilitation, headaches, insomnia, and seasonal allergies. |
