So exciting! For anyone who has benefitted from acupuncture, this is a chance to tell the state of Oregon to keep acupuncture as a benefit for Medicaid patients, and make it possible for providers to treat more conditions! Let me know if you want to submit testimony. :)

📢 HERC’s 5/15 meeting schedule is out—and we’re officially on it!

The Oregon Acupuncture Association submitted a full proposal for expanding acupuncture under OHP, but we need your public comments by April 18 to strengthen the case.

What to ask for:
✅ Coverage for acupuncture regardless of diagnosis code
✅ Higher visit caps (we suggested 20 physical, 36 mental—but feel free to ask for more!)
✅ Why this improves outcomes, saves money, and helps your practice

3 Sports Acupuncture Modalities

1. Acupuncture:
Acupuncture is an ancient Chinese medical practice that involves inserting thin needles into specific points on the body. These points are believed to stimulate the flow of qi (vital energy) and promote healing.

2. Cupping:
Cupping involves placing suction cups on the skin. This creates a vacuum effect that can help to improve blood flow, reduce inflammation, and promote healing.

3. Electroacupuncture:
In this technique, a mild electrical current is passed through the acupuncture needles. This stimulation can help to reduce pain, improve muscle strength, and promote healing.

How Acupuncture Can Help Improve Sleep

Regulates Circadian Rhythm: Acupuncture can help regulate the body's internal clock, known as the circadian rhythm. This can improve sleep-wake cycles and promote more restful sleep.

Reduces Stress and Anxiety: By targeting specific points on the body, acupuncture can help reduce stress and anxiety, which are common culprits of insomnia. When the mind is calm, it's easier to fall asleep and stay asleep.

Addresses Underlying Health Conditions: Acupuncture can help address underlying health conditions that may be contributing to sleep problems. For example, it can help alleviate pain, digestive issues, and hormonal imbalances that can disrupt sleep.

Many people are curious about the pain involved in this ancient practice, and often wonder if it's more or less painful than traditional injections.
You may notice a gentle sensation as the needles are inserted, but most find acupuncture to be a deeply relaxing experience. Our skilled acupuncturists use fine needles and insert them with care. Please let us know if you feel any discomfort during your session.
