What We Treat

At OC Well Studio, you'll find a diverse range of treatments from dry needling to massage therapy, tailored to address a variety of different health concerns. Our approach is designed to target the root causes of discomfort and pain, rather than merely masking the symptoms. 

  • Pregnancy has many side effects including back pain, public bone pain, and sciatica — Dr. Pierce is certified in the Webster Prenatal Chiropractic Technique and has extensive experience as a pregnancy chiropractor and acupuncturist.

    Many families use acupuncture as an adjunct therapy to improve their chances of conceiving naturally, as well as assisting them through IVF or IUI.

    Acupuncture can also be used to encourage breech babies to turn as well as to promote natural labor induction.

  • Symptoms of stress and anxiety disorders can be eased with acupuncture treatment, as the needles help the body release chemicals that help to reduce pain and promote relaxation.
