How Acupuncture Treats Pain

Acupuncture works by stimulating specific points along the body's neurological and fascial pathways, triggering measurable physiological responses — including the release of endorphins, reduction of systemic inflammation, and downregulation of the pain signals transmitted through the nervous system. Rather than masking pain, acupuncture intervenes directly in the mechanisms sustaining it.

Conditions We Treat

• Chronic back pain and lower back pain

• Neck and shoulder tension

• Sciatica and nerve pain

• Migraines and tension headaches

What to Expect

Every acupuncture session begins with a thorough clinical assessment. Treatment points, depth, and technique are adjusted based on your specific pain presentation and your nervous system's response — no two sessions are identical. Sessions typically run 50 minutes and are conducted in a private, controlled environment designed to support deep therapeutic engagement and measurable recovery.

Why Patients Choose Hana

Pain that persists despite physical therapy, medication, or previous acupuncture treatment is rarely random — it is patterned. Hana's clinical approach identifies and addresses the neurological and myofascial components maintaining that pattern, producing results in patients who have exhausted conventional options. Her work is trusted by leading institutions across Los Angeles precisely because it delivers outcomes other approaches have not.
