Our Philosophy & Approach
At Point Loma Acupuncture, we believe effective healthcare should be both highly skilled and genuinely accessible. We meet every patient where they are — offering clear explanations, honest recommendations, and flexible treatment options that respect your time, budget, and personal goals.
Integrative Care in Point Loma
We are proud to be integrated within Peninsula Chiropractic, sharing the same suite and patient community. This close collaboration allows us to provide true integrative care. Our Doctors of Acupuncture, Chiropractors, and Massage Therapists regularly confer as a team to ensure your treatment plan is cohesive and comprehensive. Many patients benefit from this seamless, whole-person approach under one roof.
Patient-Centered & Transparent Care
We are committed to being punctual, respectful of your time, and highly accommodating. Rather than using pushy sales tactics or requiring large upfront commitments, we focus on professional guidance. After a thorough evaluation, we provide a clear treatment plan — just as a physician would prescribe medication — outlining our professional recommendations for frequency and duration.
You remain fully in control. We present the best options for your condition and goals, then support whatever level of investment feels right for you. Our job is to deliver high-quality care and honest advice; your job is to decide how you want to move forward.
Accessible Care
We work with most major insurance plans and actively strive to accept as many carriers as possible. Our tiered treatment options — from focused 30-minute sessions to comprehensive holistic care — are designed to make quality acupuncture available to more people, not just those who can afford luxury spa-style treatments.
Conditions Treated
Pain
Acupuncture alleviates pain, reduces inflammation, and speeds up the recovery process by increasing blood circulation to painful areas.
Digestion
Regulating the nervous system with acupuncture can help regulate digestion, balance gut motility, and enhance digestive function.
Stress
Gentle stimulation of acupuncture points on the body alleviates stress by promoting the “rest & relax” mode of the nervous system.
Sports Medicine
Acupuncture speeds up recovery from training, treats and prevents injury to those who live athletic lifestyles.
Fertility
Acupuncture helps fertility by improving blood flow to reproductive organs, balancing hormones, and reducing stress to support conception.
Anxiety
Acupuncture treats anxiety by promoting relaxation, balancing neurotransmitter activity, and reducing the body's stress response.
