At Acupuncture of Powell, we work with you to develop a treatment plan unique to your health concerns. Whether you've you had acupuncture in the past, have tried everything else without success, or you desire the wellness maintenance acupuncture provides, we welcome you.

Here at our Rockville, MD acupuncture center, we specialize in a different style of acupuncture therapy, not widely available. This method is more than 2000 years old and comes from the I Ching, one of the oldest books in the world. This method has several names such as: I Ching Acupuncture, The Balance Method, or Distal Point Acupuncture. No matter what you call it, the effects often seem miraculous to patients.

We commonly use points that are distant from the site of the symptom. Pain relief frequently occurs in seconds and long lasting relief over a series of treatments is usually at least 80%.

We have successfully treated patients with a wide variety of health conditions over the last twenty years, and we can help you too!

Acupuncture is a wonderful addition to any health routine. Do you go to the gym? Are you trying to eat healthy? You should consider acupuncture a safe and non-invasive way to help maintain your body at its peak performance. This is true, whether you are unwell or merely looking to maintain good health.

Trying acupuncture is not only easy and fun, it is a great way to take your health into your own hands. Free consultation available to all new patients.

We’re a natural wellness clinic with a focus on providing quality personalized care for all of our patients. Our services include Acupuncture, Hypnotherapy, Massage, Chinese Medicine, Functional Nutrition, Injection Therapy, and more!
