Acupuncture is a gentle, time-tested healing practice with roots in Traditional Chinese Medicine (TCM), developed over 3,000 years ago. It works by stimulating the body’s natural ability to heal itself — restoring balance, relieving pain, and enhancing overall well-being.
During treatment, fine, sterile needles are gently inserted at specific acupuncture points along the body’s meridian pathways. These points stimulate the nervous system, prompting the release of endorphins and other biochemicals that help reduce inflammation, regulate internal systems, and support immune and emotional health. Most people find acupuncture to be virtually painless, deeply relaxing, and rejuvenating.
Acupuncture treatments encourage the bodies natural healing processes. This is done by gently inserting fine needles at very precise acupuncture points in order to prevent and treat disease. Acupuncture points stimulate the nervous system to release chemicals in the muscles, spinal cord, and brain to reduce inflammation and nourish the immune system. Treatment is virtually painless and creates a feeling of relaxation.
Appointments available every Wednesday from 12:30 – 4:30PM
Group Community Acupuncture offered 1-2 times per month.
“Acupuncture awakens the body’s natural intelligence to heal, restore balance, and harmonize the flow of life force.”

Acupuncture Team

Dr. Alexis Francis, ND, LAc
My goal is to create a space of restoration and relaxation during each treatment, helping patients reconnect with their innate healing abilities. With a diverse set of tools at my disposal—from acupuncture and herbal medicine to nutritional counseling and lifestyle support—I tailor treatments to meet each individual’s needs.
I love making Chinese medicine approachable and encourage my patients to ask questions. By understanding the ‘why’ behind their treatments, they can feel more empowered on their journey to health. Whether addressing chronic conditions or providing general wellness support, my work is rooted in compassion, education, and a commitment to holistic healing.

READY TO UPGRADE YOUR SELF-CARE?
While a single session can offer relief and insight, sustainable transformation requires consistency, connection, and a coordinated plan.
That’s why we created the Lifestyle Medicine Membership (LMM) — a truly integrative, personalized, and affordable model of care that addresses the root causes of imbalance and helps you build lifelong resilience.
With the LMM, you’ll be matched with a customized team of holistic practitioners—including experts in Acupuncture, Yoga Therapy, Ayurveda, Naturopathic Medicine, Somatic Experiencing, Reiki, Spiritual Counseling, and Nutritional Counseling. Your care team will collaborate to design a plan tailored to your unique needs, track your progress, and offer ongoing guidance and support to help you achieve your health goals—physically, mentally, and emotionally.
This is more than self-care. It’s a path back to wholeness.
Body, mind, and spirit — all supported, all aligned.
