Your Path to Wellness
Helping you restore balance, feel your best, and thrive through every stage of life.
Care That Starts With You.
At Espiritu Acupuncture + Wellness, we believe healing begins by looking beyond symptoms. Every treatment is thoughtfully designed to combine the time-tested principles of acupuncture and Chinese medicine with evidence-informed care.
Whether you’re seeking relief from pain, support through pregnancy, help balancing hormones, recovering from an injury, or simply looking to feel more like yourself again, we take the time to understand your story and create a treatment plan that’s right for you.
Our approach may include acupuncture, Chinese herbal medicine, cupping therapy, lifestyle and nutritional guidance, and other supportive therapies - each carefully chosen to meet your needs and support your path toward better health.
Walking Beside You
Healing is a journey and we’re honored to be part of yours. From your first visit to every milestone that follows, we’re committed to providing thoughtful guidance, compassionate care, and personalized support along the way.
As your needs change, your care evolves with you. We’ll continue to listen, educate, and adapt your treatment plan to help you build lasting health with confidence because meaningful healing isn’t just about where you begin, it’s about where you’re going.
How We Help You Heal
-
Acupuncture
Acupuncture is an ancient medicine that involves the insertion of fine, sterile stainless steel needles into specific points in the body activating the body’s own natural healing response. It can be used to treat a full spectrum of conditions from allergies to insomnia.
-
Herbal Medicine
Herbal medicine is an integral part of eastern medicine that can be used to address a variety of conditions. It may be used on its own as a primary therapy or can work wonderfully as an adjunct therapy to supplement your acupuncture treatments.
-
Bodywork + Manual Therapy
Bodywork techniques such as gua sha, tuina massage or cupping therapy can be used in addition to acupuncture to assist with the overall healing process. These methods are typically used to treat musculoskeletal conditions and pain.
-
Virtual Wellness
Distance should not stand in the way of health and wellness. Our acupuncturists provide support from afar with our virtual wellness services. An individualized treatment plan will be created for you which may include acupressure, herbal formulas, dietary + lifestyle advice.

What People Are Saying
“From the moment I arrived, I felt comfortable since the office feels really homey. The waiting room feels more like a friend’s living room than an office, with jazz lightly playing in the background. Every effort was made to ensure I felt comfortable and understood the treatment. I came in with sciatic pain and the morning after my treatment I noticed a tremendous reduction in pain and increased motility. This is not my first experience with acupuncture, but it was my best.”

“Lauren is amazing! I started going to her during my pregnancy. She helped me feel great during my pregnancy, and she helped to prepare me for my labor and birth. I truly believe it made a huge difference. She was even communicating with me while I was in labor! She was beyond supportive and is now a great support postpartum. I told my husband he had to give her a try and now he is hooked as well. We don’t know what we would do without her as a part of our wellness routine. I am so beyond grateful to have come across her during my pregnancy. I look forward to my sessions with her. Thank you Lauren! We love you!”

“When I first met Angelo I had asked the question, “might acupuncture help with allergies?” He said it would. In my first visit I was able to stop taking claritin. This delighted me so I continued with several more visits to help with digestion, hair loss and stress. The greatest part, Angelo always makes it feel like a spa visit.. I am so grateful for his help and care.”
