Acupuncture for Pain, Stress & Whole-Body Balance — West Bloomfield, MI
A responsive, individualized approach that addresses both physical tension and emotional regulation.
What This Care Is
Acupuncture at Stillpoint is guided by how your body presents and responds, not by preset protocols. Many people seek care here when pain, stress, or limitations haven’t resolved with conventional approaches alone. Others seek a deeper, more integrative form of support — one that respects the body’s natural capacity to adapt and recover.
My clinical perspective, shaped by over two decades in Chinese medicine and movement disciplines, views symptoms as interconnected patterns rather than isolated problems.
This approach is often a good fit if you:
Are dealing with ongoing or recurring pain.
Feel that stress or tension is affecting your body.
Want care that looks beyond symptoms alone.
Are willing to engage in a short course of treatment.
A Whole-Person Approach to Acupuncture
Acupuncture is not a single technique. How it is applied matters.
In this practice, treatment is guided by how your body presents on the day of the visit and how it responds over time. Pain, tension, and dysfunction are often influenced by circulation, nervous system regulation, and the emotional load the body is carrying.
Rather than focusing only on the area of discomfort, care often includes attention to related patterns involving the spine, hips, breathing, and how stress and emotion are reflected physically in the body. This allows treatment to support not only symptom relief, but improved function, resilience, and recovery capacity.
Sessions are unhurried and responsive. Time and space are part of the medicine, allowing the nervous system to settle and the body to recover, adapt, and regain ease of movement.
When the body feels supported, the mind can soften. When the mind settles, the body heals more efficiently.
