Chronic Pain and Arthritis
Pain that lasts for months or years wears on sleep, mood, and daily routines. Many people seek acupuncture for long-standing pain. Dr. Yen offers it as ongoing supportive care with a plan that fits your life and works alongside your doctor's care. Response varies from person to person.
Concerns people often bring
- • Long-standing back and neck pain
- • Sciatica-type leg and hip pain
- • Arthritis discomfort and stiffness
- • Joint pain
- • Headaches and migraines
- • Sleep affected by pain
What a visit looks like
We begin with a short intake about your pain pattern, then use acupuncture points chosen for you, sometimes with cupping or gentle electrical stimulation. Chronic concerns usually call for a course of visits rather than one session. We set a pace together and adjust the plan as your needs change. Most sessions last 45 to 60 minutes.
Step 1
Intake
We listen to your history, goals, and any care you already receive.
Step 2
Treatment
A personalized session using the approaches that suit you.
Step 3
Plan
You leave knowing what to expect next and how often to come in.
Questions
How many visits might I need?
It depends on you. Some people come for a short course and others for ongoing care. Dr. Yen will talk through a realistic plan at your first visit. Results are not guaranteed.
Does acupuncture replace medical care?
No. Acupuncture is supportive care and is not a substitute for medical diagnosis or treatment. Please keep working with your doctor and tell us about your diagnoses, medications, and supplements.
Do you take insurance?
Coverage depends on your plan and the service, so we can't confirm it on this website. Call us before your visit and we will help you check whether your plan applies. Please have your insurance card handy. Coverage varies by plan and service. Call to verify your benefits before booking.
