Did you know that according to The World Health Organization and Johns Hopkins acupuncture can treat 58+ different conditions?

We're here to help with whatever's got you feeling less than stellar.

We love Ali and Reese so much we can’t help but bug them at the front desk 🤭

Sometimes when one area of the body gets better, another part feels more painful! This can be a frustrating part of the healing process.

As providers, we're going to remind you that it's completely NORMAL for this to happen. We'll also draw your attention back to specific daily tasks that have become easier, or pain scales that have decreased.

Often when this happens it doesn't mean things are getting worse — you're actually noticing other sore parts because the other parts are getting better (yay!). Stick to your homework and we will let you know when you need more help than we can provide. Keep up the good work!

We're so excited to welcome Allyson Frese, RN, Lic. Ac. to Johnston Family Acupuncture! Ally will be taking patients in both Back Bay and Cohasset starting in October.

Here's what Ally had to say about why she became an acupuncturist:
"There’s nothing I love more than practicing this medicine. Acupuncture has had a profound impact on both the physical and emotional health of so many people I love, and it’s truly my calling. With a background in nursing and a deep foundation in Chinese medicine, I feel grateful every day to support others in their healing. I’m also passionate about being part of a community and creating spaces where people feel cared for and connected."

Some fun facts about Ally:
🍜 Favorite food: my moms butternut squash soup in the winter
📚 Favorite book: The Empyrean Series
🏖️ Down time: The beach and being by the ocean is my happy place :) I have also been practicing yoga for the last 7 years and it is another passion of mine.
🎤 Funny Fact: I was in Glee Club in college but I can’t sing in tune for the life of me so I have no idea how I made it past the audition ( maybe they take everyone?)
🐉 Spirit Animal: Dragon

We love mornings at JFA: calm, quiet, and lots to do before the first patient steps in. Thank you Reese for making our Back Bay office welcoming for all!

For example: an otherwise healthy person with neck pain from sitting at a desk (sound familiar?) will most likely need 1-3 visits to feel really good, and then we say, “okay, see you in 2 weeks!”⁠

And, bonus tip: the more you follow our suggestions for stretching & strengthening at home, the more you'll be able to keep your pain at bay. Hooray!

The journey to conception is a shared responsibility between BOTH partners.

Supporting each other in making lifestyle changes can not only increase the chances of conception but also improve *overall* health & well being!

This story about one of Jess’s recent patients is fascinating proof of how powerful acupuncture is when it comes to regulating your menstrual cycle!

We frequently see patients looking for support with menstrual symptoms, irregular cycles, fertility, and overall reproductive wellness.

We’re also more than happy to work with your lifestyle and what works best for you, because overall stress reduction is just as important as where we place the needles.

This is exciting to think about if you feel pressured to grow your family rapidly, but are hesitant to jump into Western fertility treatments like IVF or IUI again.

It’s also something to keep in mind if you want to spread out your pregnancies! If you’re interested in exploring non-hormonal birth control options, we’d love to chat with you about what that might look like.

Reese actually works super hard holding down the fort in Back Bay (and Ali in Cohasset!), but there are also tons of perks to working in an acupuncture office… massages, acu treatments, and snacks galore!
