Acupuncture and Wellness
About
Refuge Acupuncture and Wellness is a Jamaica Plain clinic offering acupuncture and related East Asian medicine therapies. Treatment draws on several modalities: acupuncture for energetic and physiological stimulation, tuina bodywork to loosen and free the whole body, moxibustion for heating and warming, cupping to move deeper stagnation and gua sha to move shallower stagnation. Electro-acupuncture and Chinese nutritional counseling are also part of the practice.
The acupuncturist, Aaron, is licensed in Massachusetts and board certified by the NCCAOM as a Diplomate in Acupuncture, having trained at the New England School of Acupuncture. He focuses on orthopedic acupuncture, traditional Chinese methods and subtler Japanese methods, treating musculoskeletal pain, pediatric complaints, internal organ problems and infertility. He came to acupuncture from a lifelong practice of contemplative study, including Buddhist meditation, Tai Chi and Qi Gong.
