Acupuncture for Pain Management & Nervous System Support
Acupuncture
At Golden Leaf Acupuncture, care is delivered with a clinical, thoughtful approach rooted in traditional Chinese medicine and informed by modern healthcare. Treatments support the nervous system, promote circulation, and encourage the body’s natural healing response.
What Treatment May Include
Each session is personalized and may include a carefully curated combination of:
Acupuncture needling
Cupping therapy
Heat therapy
Hands-on bodywork
These techniques are often used together to address pain, chronic tension, stress-related conditions, and movement limitations. When appropriate, Chinese medicine principles and herbal support may be recommended to support long-term wellness.
Nervous System, Stress, and Supportive Care
Acupuncture is particularly effective for regulating the nervous system and reducing stress. Many patients describe treatments as deeply calming, restorative, and grounding. This regulation plays an important role in pain perception, recovery, and overall resilience.
For individuals undergoing chemotherapy, acupuncture may be used as supportive care to help manage side effects such as nausea and peripheral neuropathy, in coordination with their medical care team.
Appointments are intentionally limited to ensure focused, personalized care in a calm and private setting.
Health Consultation & Coaching
Health Consultation & Coaching is a dedicated service focused on personalized lifestyle guidance and whole-person care. These sessions are designed for patients seeking a deeper, more comprehensive look at their health beyond hands-on treatment.
Areas of Focus
Consultations may include focused guidance around:
Nutrition and dietary patterns
Stress management and nervous system regulation
Sleep quality and energy balance
Movement and lifestyle habits
Chinese medicine principles
Supportive wellness strategies
Care is thoughtful, collaborative, and tailored to your individual goals and health concerns.
Who This Is For
Health Consultation & Coaching is ideal for individuals who:
Want to optimize overall health and well-being
Are navigating lifestyle or health transitions
Are newly diagnosed with cancer and seeking support alongside medical care
Prefer a thoughtful, individualized approach to guidance and planning
Appointment Format
Health Consultation & Coaching sessions are conducted via secure video call and are available to patients residing in California. These appointments are separate from acupuncture visits and are not combined, allowing dedicated time and focus for in-depth consultation.
