We start with an initial consultation to get to know your symptoms, medical history, and the big picture of your health.
The nervous system is complex – which can often mean complicated symptoms.
Beyond the obvious symptoms of pain, immobility, and difficulty doing everyday activities that used to be easy, neurological conditions can also rob you of your independence and confidence. They can leave you feeling frustrated and hopeless, but it doesn’t have to be this way.
Acupuncture guides you to neurological healing.
While neurological conditions can be very complex, a natural approach offers a clear path to healing. Acupuncture works by repairing your brain’s communication with the rest of the body. It uses your own body’s healing potential to reestablish brain and central nervous system connections, stimulate the growth of new brain cells, and increase blood flow to the body.

What Our Patients Say
“My quality of life has returned and my pain is now easily manageable.”
“Before I started my treatment with Melani I was limping for 2.5 years and I spent a year with RSI in both my arms and right shoulder. My mental health was declining as well. During this time I could only walk for .5 of a mile, I could barely stand to brush my teeth, and I could not play my instruments. My body felt like glass 24/7, standing or sitting.
I started acupuncture in June 2022. As of November 2022, I am now able to walk 3.5 miles a day, stand to cook dinner barefoot, and play the piano for 30 minutes. My quality of life has returned and my pain is now easily manageable. I am forever indebted to the Doctor and her incredible staff.”

“She actually listened and understood what I was saying and didn’t just dismiss everything like most doctors do.”
“Melani was very attentive and easy to talk to, and very nice as well. She actually listened and understood what I was saying and didn’t just dismiss everything like most doctors do. The vibe was very relaxing and made me feel at ease. I’ve had acupuncture done in the past but I was usually nervous before and during. But this time I felt comfortable throughout the appointment. Her talking to me while putting the needles in definitely helped. I felt great once I was done and already scheduled my next visit 🙌”

FAQ: Long Beach Specialty Acupuncture for Neurological Conditions
What kinds of Neurological conditions can acupuncture treat?
Acupuncture can help support a wide range of neurological conditions because it helps re-establish healthy communication throughout the entire nervous system. Here are a few of the most common neurological reasons people seek out acupuncture care:
How many acupuncture treatments will I need to get relief from a neurological condition?
Every person and every situation is different. The total amount of sessions varies from person to person depending on medical history, the severity of your symptoms, frequency, and many other factors. Neurological conditions generally take time to heal themselves, as the neurological system is very complex. I have seen these conditions heal rather quickly for some people and for others, it can take some time. I consider it a “journey” that we are embarking on together and every journey takes time, consistency and commitment.
What should I expect at my first acupuncture visit?
I will go through your detailed medical history with you, assess where your current condition is at right now, and we will establish your treatment goals. Finally, you will enjoy an acupuncture treatment. I will explain the entire process as I go and make sure that you are as comfortable as possible.
