What makes our healing approach truly different?

If you’ve ever wondered how acupuncture can create lasting change, our unique three-phase treatment model is designed to guide you every step of the way. From your first visit, we focus on more than just temporary relief. Each phase—Relief, Corrective, and Supportive—has a clear purpose, ensuring you move from symptom management to real, sustainable wellness.

• Relief Phase: Rapidly reduce pain and discomfort, so you can start feeling better right away.
• Corrective Phase: Address the underlying causes, helping your body recover and restore balance.
• Supportive Phase: Maintain progress and prevent setbacks, so you stay at your best.

Our integrative approach blends traditional acupuncture with advanced therapies like red light, PEMF, and functional medicine. This means you get a truly comprehensive experience tailored to your needs.

What can forehead wrinkles reveal about your health?

In traditional face reading, horizontal lines on the forehead are thought to reflect patterns of stress, worry, and even digestive imbalances. Deep furrows may hint at long-term emotional tension or overthinking, while smoother skin can signal balance and calm.

Our Story

Stratford Acupuncture & Wellness Center was founded in December of 2010. We recognize that your path to well being is as individual and as unique as you are and we are here to help. Chinese medicine has been practiced for well over 3000 years throughout the world, and more people are treated with it then western medicine.

Stratford Acupuncture and Wellness Center’s customized treatment plans are tailored to you and your specific healthcare needs and goals. The true beauty of Nutrition Response Testing, Acupuncture and Chinese Medicine is that they recognize that you are as profound and unique as the natural wonders of both the physical world and the universe that surrounds you.

Acupuncture Is Effectively Used in the Treatment of:

All types of pain, including nerve, muscular, and arthritic pain

Women’s health issues including nausea, fertility, menstrual issues, decreased libido, headaches (hormonal), and migraines

Pregnancy related nausea, pain and Postpartum Depression

Headaches, Migraines, and Cluster Headaches

Men’s health issues including prostrate issues, ED, and libido

Children’s health issues including anxiety, ADD/ADHD, bed wetting, and allergies

Neuropathy including Diabetic Foot Neuropathy & Pain, numbness, and tingling

Nausea associated with Chemotherapy

Mild Depression

Allergies

Weight loss

We also offer Nutrition Response Testing™. Traditional Western medicine typically treats the body’s parts, not the whole. That’s why there are so many medical specialties. By only treating the areas of the body that have an obvious symptom, Western medicine often misses the root cause and does a poor job treating many maladies. Nutrition Response Testing™ and the nutritional approach to treatment as practiced by Joe Downer (MSAC, L.Ac.) at Stratford Acupuncture and Wellness Center addresses the wholeness of the human body. This approach identifies and helps the body to correct the internal imbalances that are the cause of many medical conditions.

WHAT DOES NRT DO?

NRT examines the body’s system of organs, glands, and tissues. It is a deceptively simple procedure that detects energy flow blockages and biochemical imbalances caused by stresses on the system — immune system challenges, scars, heavy metal and chemical toxicities, environmental stress, food sensitivities, allergens, and more — the root causes of most of what we call illnesses.

If you want to treat causes instead of symptoms call us at 203-257-7550 to set up an appointment today!
