Affinity Acupuncture
When one area of health is not performing optimally, it can impact others. Founder and Director William Alexander, L.Ac., C.SMA, designs your unique personal treatment plan just for you. We are dedicated to providing you with the results you desire, utilizing premier classic and modern acupuncture techniques.

Services
Affinity Acupuncture opened in Nashville in January of 2012, and has since established itself as one of the best Nashville acupuncture clinics specializing in pain management, fertility, and orthopedic acupuncture. We provide a welcoming environment, open and honest dialogue, expertise in treatment areas, and a commitment to application of best practices and techniques.
At Affinity Acupuncture, you will find an unwavering commitment to providing you with the best possible outcome for your needs. We want you to feel as comfortable in our office as you do in your family room. Acupuncture is not one size fits all, and we will continuously adjust our approach as your needs change.
Chronic pain, caused by injury or normal wear and tear, is pain that lasts longer than three months. Chronic pain does not have to be your new normal. Affinity Acupuncture will develop a personal plan to treat your symptoms and underlying conditions, incorporating acupuncture and other treatment options to help restore your body to optimal health.
Musculoskeletal pain can get in the way of how you want to live. Acupuncture is a safe, natural approach that is highly effective in treating pain in the joints, spinal column, low back/hip/groin, lower extremities, and neck/shoulder/upper extremities. If you are experiencing pain in your low back, neck, knees, hips, shoulders, or ankles, contact us now to make an appointment.
Did you have chicken pox as a child? You may develop shingles as an adult, which is an often painful rash, typically on the left or right side of the torso. For most adults, the symptoms clear up in 2-4 weeks. For others, the pain continues after the rash has cleared up. This is called postherpetic neuralgia (PHN), a complication from shingles that occurs when damaged nerve fibers send messages from your skin to your brain.

William is a miracle worker. I usually walk around with horrible knots in my shoulders. By the end of the day I’m miserable and grumpy.
I started getting my trigger points worked on a few weeks ago and the relief has been significant.
I’m actually mad at myself for not coming sooner. I’ve been in pain for no reason.
William offers a variety of what I call “toys.. because I love them so much” to help with treatment.
I really look forward to my appointments. The staff is very friendly and the environment is clean and comfortable. They’ll even play your favorite tunes for you during

I’ve been going to for Affinity Acupuncture for a few months now, and wow, what a difference. I’ve suffered from chronic shoulder pain for about 10 years now. I tried to get relief with other methods such as massage, or using a heat pad or ice bag, and that provided temporary relief. My shoulder would feel fine for a few days, but would start flaring back up again. I finally decided to give acupuncture a try. The Affinity acupuncture team is absolutely amazing. William, the acupuncturist, talked me through the whole process, identified some areas of my shoulder that need work. He went to work

The team at Affinity Acupuncture have always been very friendly and professional. The outcome of the treatments always amaze me. I suffered with neck and back pain everyday for many years. It is now a very rare day that I am in pain. I tried many treatments and therapy’s that didn’t work. When I completed my treatment with Affinity, I was a new pain free man. I highly recommend.

I have been dealing with chronic pain for 6 months due to an IT Band Syndrome diagnosis. Physical Therapy wasn’t helping at all and I couldn’t get any relief. I went to Affinity Acupuncture about a month ago and the improvement is AMAZING! The staff is very professional and William knows his stuff! I am having more pain-free hours during the day and am almost walking normally again. If you’ve ever lived with constant pain, contact Affinity for a consultation - I’m so glad that I did!!

Wow, what a difference so far!
I have had a chronic dull neck pain from a car wreck several years ago. I had thought of trying acupuncture for awhile but never followed through.
It wasn’t until I injured the left side of my neck almost 2 months ago. The pain would start just behind my left ear lobe and shoot up to the left side of my head, causing intense headaches. I was hoping ice/heat and time would help it get better. After a few weeks of ibruorofen and minimal relief, I finally decided to see an acupuncturist.
I found Affinity Acupuncture on Google. They had good reviews so I made an

William is absolutely amazing, first and foremost. I have been having Accupuncture done for years and when I first moved to town, I searched high and low for a competent and professional Accupuncture service. After finding William, I haven’t looked anywhere else. As now a regular for treatment, I can honestly say it is best part of my week! I come out of my appt feeling relaxed, stress free, and ready to conquer my week. Thank you William!

I started treatment with William for Plantar Fasciitis. He is professional, personable, good listener and excellent Acupuncturist. Surprising, most insurance companies cover acupuncture treatment now. The pain has subsided and I'm on a maintenance plan. I highly recommend his services.

I've been seeing William at Affinity for a few months now. I decided I was going to actually try acupuncture, so I did some research for places around Nashville. Affinity ended up accepting my BCBS insurance, so I got started right away, working on my upper back. After about three weeks, I was feeling loads better and we moved to the lower back. Fast forward another few weeks and I was feeling better than I had in years - no back pain! Then I realized... I have tendonitis in my ankle & have just been living with that pain for the last few years, it was 'normal' at this point. I asked William if

William Alexander does a great job, for me he has taken me from 4 to 5 migraines a week down to 1 or 2 a month, and they are not as severe. He is very friendly and caring individual who is a joy to see. I always look forward to seeing him and getting a pain free treatment. I would recommend him to anyone who wants to be pain free.

I am a 36yr old veteran that has spinal issues and coming here has always been rewarding. William is very professional, knowledgeable, and thorough with what he does! I've had spikes in pain that he treated and relieved almost instantly. I would highly recommend giving him a try!

At 32yo I was told I had POF and several doctors, fertility clinic included, said they couldn't help me. Affinity Acupuncture took on the challenge. William believed he could help my body get back to where it needed to be in order for our family to grow. It started with working on digestion then to fertility. William changed my eating habits, got… me to quit smoking and just like that my husband and I were expecting all within a year of starting acupuncture. We have a thriving almost 4yo now because William believed he could help! We appreciate the time he spent not just doing his job of

My husband has had just about every medical procedure/medication possible to ease the pain he endures daily. He was introduces to acupuncture a couple years ago and during a sporting event he competed in. We recently discovered Williams office and my husband has been hooked ever since. He swears by it and convinced me to give it a try. I was born… with hip dysplasia and have struggled with pain most of my adult life. I decided to give it a try. I couldn't believe the difference it made. FOR the first time in years I was able to stand up and walk without any hesitation or pain. I should also

Just had my first massage with Affinity. It was such a relaxing experience, and right at the strength/level I needed. I'm new to professional massages, but definitely planning to make this a regular thing now!!
