Rodger Zeng, DA

Welcome to Johnston Acupuncture Clinic, your trusted partner in bringing balance, health, and strength to mind, body, and spirit. Our goal is to restore the harmony of the contrasting and complementary forces of nature within the body. When the body is in good health, energy flow is balanced and consistent. However, when this energy flow is disrupted due to trauma, poor diet, medication, or stress, pain and illness follow. That's where acupuncture comes in - by focusing on resolving the root cause of symptoms, we offer patients much more than temporary relief from difficult ailments.

Through the course of treatments, patients learn how to better take care of themselves and pay attention to their body's signals. Our dedicated team of professionals, led by founder and owner Dr. Rodger Zeng, is committed to helping you relieve pain and achieve balance and harmony. Dr. Zeng is a Board Certified Doctor of Acupuncture and Chinese Herbology and has been practicing acupuncture for over three decades, including teaching at the New England School of Acupuncture and practicing as an orthopedic surgeon in China.

The Science Behind Acupuncture

Acupuncture is a form of Chinese medicine that has been practiced for thousands of years. It involves the insertion of fine needles into specific points along meridians, or channels, that run throughout the body. This activates the body's qi (life force, vital energy) and promotes natural healing by enhancing the recuperative power of the body and improving overall well-being. Acupuncture is a safe and effective way to treat a wide variety of medical problems without the need for medication or surgery.
