Persimmon Community Acupuncture

Most acupuncture points have more than one function and even though you may see the person next to you with a needle in the same place, it’s the point combination that makes the treatment right for you. That’s why when you come in for low back pain and we tell you we put needles in your hands and feet, you’ve got to trust that we got you covered.

All or nothing? Nonsense! Just a reminder that most health related practices are not all or nothing. A little bit of exercise is better than none. A little bit of vegetables is better than none. One acupuncture treatment this month is DEFINITELY better than none. Acupuncture in June? Anyone?

Acupuncture is truly for everybody! I took this picture and was so appreciative of the diversity we see at Persimmon all day, every day. In one picture, we have a small 70ish year old lady from Korea (happens to be my mom) and a big 30ish profession male athlete from Brazil-both getting acupuncture and Celluma light therapy. Thanks to all of you for making Persimmon Community Acupuncture what it is-welcoming to anyone and everyone.

Thursdays goal: drink enough water We all know how important water is, but I’m posting this just as a friendly reminder....to myself. We should be drinking half our body weight in ounces. This cup is about 16 ounces, you’ll have to do the math for yourself. Now go drink some water.... #smallgoals #startwithwater #acupunctureworks See more

Acu-nap: the nap you take during your acupuncture session where you aren’t fully awake or asleep, yet wake feeling completely refreshed. Who needs one? Make an appointment online through our website or call the office for a same way appointment.

From frowny to smiley. Have you experienced this with acupuncture? Better moods all around with a few needles. All it took was Shenmen-one of the most calming points in the ear. Shen Men is considered a Master Point out of the 200 points that can be used on the ear. We use this point for anxiety, stress, depression, insomnia, pain, addiction and detoxification. You can also rub your thumb in this ear area and notice a calming effect- who doesn’t need some calming in their lives right now?

Just for fun, setting the record straight: we are not twins. But, we are sisters, best friends, and acupuncturists at Persimmon.

I got my Christmas wish! Although it’s not the usual holiday family activity, I’ve been wanting to do acupuncture on the whole family at the same time, but there is always so much going on at holiday gatherings. This year I insisted. It’s all about giving love, receiving love, and taking care of yourself. Happy holidays to you and your family. I am forever grateful for our community and patients. Thank you!!!!!!

It doesn’t mean it’s not working if you don’t feel the needles! Tag someone who is scared to try acupuncture. We use VERY thin needles and treat patients the way we like to be treated (minimal pain.) New patient who had a orthopedic/beauty treatment. Right shoulder and neck tightness + facial acupuncture with Celluma light therapy.... Happy New Year! See more

Happy holidays! Persimmon is excited to offer Celluma light therapy in 2021! We know acupuncture is great, but acupuncture plus light therapy is great x 2! Stay tuned for all the different uses. Let’s make 2021 about giving love, receiving love, and taking care of ourselves.

We will be closed the rest of the week for the holidays. See you Tuesday, Dec. 29th (2-7pm) and 30th (9am-3pm). You can message me if you forgot to purchase your giftcard today.

First time patient with the most IDEAL post acupuncture experience. She came in for facial light therapy and sciatic pain. She reported, Well, my face actually feels smoother. And I had some pain in my right toe and ankle and up into my buttocks area, but that has subsided. Also.... I had more energy and a wonderful sense of calm, if that makes sense to have both. Today she came in for her second treatment. Fingers crossed she has another glowing report. Thank you for taking the time to take care of yourself!

Every year the kids pick an ornament for themselves to put on the tree.This is the second year we’ve gone to With Garden Flair on the Mile for this tradition. Guess which one is Alek’s and which is Camille’s? We also chose a few special gifts that the kids wrapped at home.The service is impeccable and the decor is oh so festive! (Another important factor this year is masks, space, and cleanliness.) Please support small businesses!!!

We will be closed the rest of the week. See you on December 1. Happy Thanksgiving!We will be closed the rest of the week. See you on December 1. Happy Thanksgiving!

Finally made it to the Miracle Mile Farmers Market being held every Thursday in the Whirlow’s Parking lot and it was so worth it! We brought tomatoes, apricots, plums, berries and local honey. We wanted everything! Live music and nice people. Thank you @cornpoppyproduce @whirlows @miraclemile209

Joint pain and swelling can often be a result of tendon or ligament injury, especially repetitive stress motion. Don’t ignore your pain! The sooner you treat a condition, the better the outcome.
