Conditions We Treat

Traditional Chinese Medicine takes a whole-person approach to health, supporting the body across a wide range of conditions. Below are some of the most common reasons patients come to DaBōK. If you don't see your specific concern listed, please reach out, many conditions respond well to TCM, even when they don't fit neatly into a category.

Pain & Musculoskeletal Health

Acupuncture is one of the most well-researched tools for managing pain. At DaBōK, we use targeted needling, cupping, and gentle movement guidance to relieve pain, release tight muscles, and speed tissue repair, addressing not just the symptom but the underlying patterns that cause pain to return.

Common conditions we support:

  • Back pain (lower, mid, upper)

  • Neck pain and stiffness

  • Shoulder pain, including frozen shoulder

  • Headaches and migraines

  • Sciatica

  • Knee pain and arthritis

  • Tennis elbow, golfer's elbow, and tendonitis

  • Sports injuries and post-surgical recovery

  • Carpal tunnel syndrome

  • TMJ (jaw) pain

  • General joint stiffness and reduced mobility

Whether you're a weekend warrior, an athlete, or simply tired of living with persistent pain, we'll work to restore comfort and function.

Stress, Sleep & Mental Wellness

When the nervous system is constantly activated, the whole body feels it: poor sleep, low energy, racing thoughts, and a sense that you can't quite settle. Acupuncture works gently with the body's regulatory systems to calm the nervous system, balance stress hormones, and restore the natural rhythm between activity and rest.

Common conditions we support:

  • Anxiety and chronic stress

  • Insomnia and difficulty staying asleep

  • Burnout and emotional fatigue

  • Mild to moderate depression

  • Mood regulation

  • Brain fog and difficulty concentrating

  • Tension headaches

  • Stress-related digestive issues

Many patients describe their first session as the deepest rest they've had in months.

Hormonal, Digestive & Metabolic Health

Hormones, digestion, and metabolism are deeply interconnected in TCM. When one is out of balance, others often follow. Treatment focuses on harmonizing these systems through acupuncture, herbal medicine, and dietary guidance, supporting the body's natural ability to regulate itself.

Common conditions we support:

  • Menstrual irregularities, PMS, and painful periods

  • Fertility support (natural conception or alongside IVF)

  • Menopause and perimenopause symptoms

  • PCOS support

  • Men's vitality and prostate health

  • IBS, bloating, and chronic digestive discomfort

  • Acid reflux

  • Appetite regulation

  • Thyroid balance

Respiratory, Skin & Recovery Support

TCM has long been used to support the body's respiratory and skin health, and to ease recovery from illness or medical treatment. Treatment works to open airways, clear internal heat, improve circulation, and support the body's resilience.

Common conditions we support:

  • Seasonal allergies and chronic sinusitis

  • Asthma support

  • Frequent colds and weakened immunity

  • Eczema, psoriasis, and chronic skin conditions

  • Acne (hormonal and inflammatory)

  • Hair thinning and scalp health

  • Stroke recovery (scalp and body acupuncture)

  • Speech and motor rehabilitation

  • Oncology support to ease side effects of chemotherapy and radiation

For patients in recovery, we work in close partnership with your medical team to complement and support your care.

What Sets Us Apart

Every treatment at DaBōK begins with careful listening and an unhurried diagnosis. We use pulse and tongue analysis, alongside a detailed conversation about your history and daily life, to understand the pattern beneath your symptoms. From there, treatment is fully individualized: no two patients receive the same plan, even for the same condition.

Our acupuncture follows the Heishui Method, the precise and nearly painless needling technique developed by Master Wan Cheng Liu. We also offer non-insertive Daishin, a traditional Japanese mallet technique that stimulates acupuncture points without piercing the skin, ideal for children, elderly patients, and anyone with needle anxiety.
