How Acupuncture May Help

Research suggests acupuncture may help support nausea management and digestive comfort in a variety of settings, including pregnancy and cancer care.

Acupuncture is not intended to replace medical treatment when needed. Instead, it can serve as part of a comprehensive approach to symptom management.

What to Expect from Treatment

Every treatment begins with a conversation.

We'll discuss your symptoms, health history, digestion, stress levels, sleep, and any factors that may be contributing to nausea.

Treatment takes place on a comfortable heated table with pillows, bolsters, and blankets available for support. Acupuncture points are selected based on your individual presentation, and you'll then rest quietly for about 20–30 minutes.

Many patients report feeling calmer, more comfortable, and more settled following treatment.

A Personalized Approach to Healing

Nausea can have many different causes and contributing factors.

Dr. Carolyn takes a whole-person approach, looking beyond symptoms to understand the patterns that may be affecting your digestive health and overall well-being.

Acupuncture points are selected based on your individual presentation, and treatment may be enhanced with therapies such as aromatherapy, herbal medicine, dietary recommendations, craniosacral therapy, or lifestyle support when appropriate.

Care is always collaborative, and treatments are adjusted based on your goals, preferences, and response to care.
