Acupuncture and Dry Needling in Land O’ Lakes, WI

Pain Relief, Nervous System Support, and Whole-Body Balance

Acupuncture is a powerful, natural therapy used to relieve pain, regulate the nervous system, and support overall wellness. While many people first try acupuncture for back pain or joint issues, it’s also used for stress, hormonal balance, digestion, sleep, and fatigue.

Dry needling is a more targeted technique focused on releasing muscle knots and restoring movement. Together, these treatments provide a complete approach to both symptom relief and long-term recovery.

Located in Land O’ Lakes, WI, Up North Acupuncture provides effective, non-invasive care tailored to each patient’s needs.

What to Expect at Your First Appointment

Your first visit is designed to give you answers, relief, and a clear plan forward in a calm, supportive setting.

Here’s how it usually flows:

We’ll begin with a consultation to talk through your concerns, review your health history, and understand your goals. Based on what you share, you’ll receive personalized recommendations—including how often to come in and whether additional therapies like PEMF, cupping, FSM or other therapies could be helpful.

Once we’ve outlined a plan, you’ll move right into your first treatment.

Acupuncture is gentle and relaxing for most people, and the session is tailored to what your body needs that day. There’s time to rest, reset, and let the therapy do its work.

 If we determine that these treatments aren’t the right fit for your needs, there’s no charge for the visit.

You’re not just booking a session, you’re starting a healing partnership that meets you where you are and helps you move forward.

Frequently Asked Questions

A few common questions about acupuncture.

Acupuncture supports everything from pain and injury recovery to stress, sleep, hormones, and digestion. It’s a versatile therapy used for both physical and emotional wellbeing.

Not usually. The needles are very thin most people feel just a light tap or mild tingling. Many find treatments deeply calming and often fall asleep during sessions.

Both use needles, but they’re used differently.
Acupuncture works with the nervous system and energy pathways to support healing on multiple levels.
Dry needling is a more direct approach that targets tight muscles and trigger points to release tension and improve mobility.
Many patients benefit from a combination of both.

It depends on your condition and goals. Acute issues may improve quickly, while chronic conditions usually take more time. During  your first visit, you’ll get a personalized plan that fits your needs and schedule—no pressure, just a clear path forward.

Absolutely. Acupuncture is great for calming the nervous system, reducing stress, and helping your body shift into rest-and-repair mode. You don’t need to be in pain to benefit from treatment.

No, however I can provide a receipt if you’d like to submit for out-of-network reimbursement.

Yes.  As I transition from my Appleton practice, I will be adding more days to my Land O Lakes office. I plan to be in Lando full time by the Spring, based on demands.
