liative Care. Acupuncture and Oriental Medicine are forms of holistic medical treatments that encourages the body to promote and participate in its own innate ability to naturally self-heal. Acupuncture helps the body to improve and optimally maintain all of its functions, biochemically, physically, emotionally and mentally. Quite commonly, Acupuncture is thought of as mostly a treatment for pain and frequently is turned to as a last resort. However, in addition to being a superb preventive and maintenance medicine, Acupuncture is an extremely efficient and effective ‘first resort’ treatment and works along with conventional medicine to enhance treatment for a wide variety of health disorders.

​We offer all the modalities of Traditional Chinese Medicine which are Acupuncture, Herbal Medicine, Cupping, Gua Sha, Tui Na as well as Massage Therapy.

🌿 A New Season of Wellness at Niantic Acupuncture 🌿

As the seasons change, our bodies must change with them.

Traditional Chinese Medicine teaches us that our health is deeply connected to the natural world. The heat and moisture of late summer can affect digestion, energy, and mental clarity. As we transition into the cooler, drier days of fall, our focus begins to shift toward supporting the Lung system, strengthening our protective energy—known as Wei Qi—and preparing the body for winter.

Over the coming weeks, we will be sharing seasonal wellness education, nourishing foods, herbal traditions, simple self-care practices, and ways to better understand your own constitution.

We will also be highlighting the local farmers, wellness practitioners, and small-business owners who are helping us build a healthier, more connected, and more conscious community.

Not every food, herb, or tonic is appropriate for every person. True wellness begins with learning what your individual body needs.

Together, we can reconnect with the wisdom of the seasons, support our local community, and become more active participants in our own health.

A wonderful beginning—and the first of many collaborations to come!

Last Sunday, I had the privilege of joining David Chandler, M.A., founder of Eagle’s Quest Tai Chi Center, for our first Wholistic Wellness Workshop at the beautiful Hunts Brook Farm.

Together, we introduced participants to an integrative experience combining the NADA five-point ear acupuncture protocol, guided meditation, breathwork, and the healing principles of Tai Chi. Our intention was simple: help people reset their nervous systems, restore a greater sense of peace, and experience how acupuncture can work alongside other longevity and wellness practices.

As a new practitioner in the area representing Niantic Acupuncture & Family Wellness, it was especially meaningful to connect with members of the local community, share the benefits of acupuncture, and contribute to a more collaborative approach to health and well-being.

The participation, openness, and positive energy made our first workshop a true success. I am grateful to David Chandler, Debbie Chandler, Hunts Brook Farm, and everyone who joined us and supported this vision.

This is only the beginning. I look forward to creating many more opportunities that bring acupuncture, mindful movement, meditation, local farming, and community wellness together.
