Acupuncture in Maple Ridge & Pitt Meadows
Pitt Meadows Acupuncture Treatments
Acupuncture practices restore health and balance to the body while granting physical, mental, and spiritual improvements. Activating certain acupuncture points on the body will trigger a response elsewhere. While there are hundreds of acupuncture points, some of the most widely used points on the body are:
Large Intestine (LI4)
This is triggered by inserting a fine needle in the web between a patient’s thumb and forefinger. Applying pressure to this point activates the immune system and alleviates facial tension and pain.
Liver (LV3)
To trigger a response in one’s liver, the pressure points between a patient’s second and big toe on the top of the foot can be activated. This can alleviate headache pain, balance emotional energy, and lower blood pressure.
Spleen (SP6)
About the width of three fingers, there is an area above the anklebone that activates the spleen. This can treat hormonal disorders such as irregular menstruation, digestion, and immunity.
Stomach (ST36)
While these are traditionally identified points, there are many illnesses and symptoms that can be activated through acupuncture. For patients in Pitt Meadows, Maple Ridge, and Coquitlam, our practitioners at Pre-Kinetic Wellness Center offer personalized consultations and expert acupuncture therapies.

What to Expect from an Acupuncture Appointment?
A certified acupuncture therapist will insert fine, sterile needles into the patient’s skin to achieve therapeutic benefits without the use of medication. While some may fear the use of needles, acupuncture is virtually painless and has incredibly calming effects. With expert execution, the needles won’t cause damage to underlying tissue and can increase the feeling of ease, elevate mood, and increase overall health.
Different points of the body trigger various parts of the nervous system and through activating these neurotransmitters and neurohormones, patients benefit from a variety of physiological effects. Typically, these needles will remain in the skin for 15-20 minutes, however, this time may vary depending on the practitioner’s discretion.
During your Maple Ridge acupuncture appointment, patients can expect feelings of:
- Relaxation
- Mood Stabilization
- Well-Being
- Pain Reduction
- Decreased Inflammation
- Reduced Muscle Spasm
