Growing numbers of people are turning to acupuncture to restore their health naturally. Using acupuncture, NAET allergy treatment, herbal medicine, and/or nutrition, we can help you feel better so you can live your best life! Acupuncture stimulates nerve pathways in the body which trigger an increase of endorphins, oxygen, blood and nutrients to areas that need healing.
Health in Chinese medicine is equated with highly oxygenated, nutrient-rich blood moving through the body while maintaining proper functioning of all of the organs especially the heart. We take the time to get to know you and your unique concerns. Our priority is to build a partnership with you on your journey to wellness so you gain control of your health.

Acupuncture needles are very thin, about the thickness of a human hair. There should be little discomfort with needle insertion, and we use sterile, disposable stainless steel needles exclusively for your safety. Chinese Medicine is a complete medical system that has been used for over 2,000 years for preventive care, health maintenance, and treatment of disease.
The demands of modern life exceed the body's own nutritional supply even with a good diet. Our bodies are trying to handle high stress, low nutrient foods, and an abundance of environmental toxins. Functional nutrition offers an effective solution. Nutrition can improve the benefits of your acupuncture treatments in less time because it is essential to helping your body repair and heal especially for chronic illnesses.

One of the most common reasons people seek acupuncture is for pain relief. There have been extensive studies done of acupuncture especially for the treatment of back and neck pain, knee pain, and headaches. These studies also show that acupuncture is an effective solution to dealing with the current opioid epidemic associated with pain management.
The use of Chinese medicine for women's health issues can be traced back to 1500-1000 BC. Chinese medicine excels at treating women's health complaints because it understands the importance of addressing the whole person, not just symptoms, in order to achieve and maintain health. The goal of treatment is to identify and treat the root cause of the illness to help recover one's own healing capacity.

I cannot say enough great things about Nicole Peterson. Before seeing Nicole, I had reached a low with my health and was struggling to find answers and solutions. I went to numerous doctors – neurologists, a pain management , a neurosurgeon , gastro, etc. – and was unable to find any assistance with my symptoms. Instead, each doctor passed me off to another and did not take the time to listen to what I was saying or give credence to the pain I was feeling.
Many of the doctors told me I should quit my job or write a new prescription. My symptoms – muscle pain, headaches, joint pain, depression

I had a wonderfully relaxing and nurturing experience at Ashland Family Accupuncture. Nicole is knowledgeable, compassionate, and so comfortable to connect with. I love that clients are offered multiple modalities including acupuncture, muscle testing, and the body code to not only discover and treat imbalances in the body, but also gain a deeper understanding of symptoms AND their root cause(s). I highly reccomend treatment at this amazing practice!
