Acupuncture
How would your life change if you weren’t in pain?
Maybe you've seen doctors, chiropractors and physical therapists but you're still in pain. You're trying to get or stay in shape but you keep hurting yourself during or after your workouts so you give up.
Pain, stress and anxiety suck the life out of having fun, but my unique style of acupuncture lets you enjoy living and enhance your athletic performance.
First, you’ll be assessed to find out where your pain is coming from, then we’ll treat any trigger points found with dry needle acupuncture and/or neurofunctional acupuncture (painless electro stimulation). Your treatment may also be supported with cupping (myofascial decompression), gua sha (gentle skin friction) or Myofascial massage.
Improve your flexibility, reduce pain and stress, increase mobility and enjoy being active again.

Lorraine is a sports injuries & orthopedics acupuncture specialist.
Lorraine Lavenita M.S. L.Ac
Acupuncturist and Licensed Skincare Professional
Lorraine Lavenita offers an indispensable style of acupuncture that is popular with people who are active, personal trainers, dancers and professional athletes. Her style of needling is in such high demand that athletes from across the country beg her to move to their towns.
Since the start of her education, her main focus has been on sports injuries & orthopedics and she continues to invest in ongoing education to help her clients.
As someone who had to stop activity due to an injury, Lorraine understands the frustrations that come with not only giving up your favorite sport, but the limitations of western medicine. After years of physical therapy and visits with sports medicine doctors, this style of acupuncture is what finally got her up and moving again immediately. She’s proud to be able to help others heal quickly and get back to their favorite way of exercising.
Clients remark constantly about how she stands out amongst other acupuncturists when it comes to pain. You don’t need to suffer any longer, schedule now and experience relief for yourself.
