Acupuncture By Maya Martinez

At Acupuncture by Maya Martinez, we are dedicated to providing personalized and effective acupuncture treatments to the residents of Southeast Portland. Our practice is rooted in the ancient healing wisdom of Traditional Chinese Medicine (TCM), combining it with modern scientific understanding to address a wide range of health concerns.

Our Approach

Acupuncture, a core practice of TCM, involves the insertion of fine, sterile needles at specific points on the body to stimulate energy flow, promote balance, and trigger the body's natural healing mechanisms. This holistic approach targets the root cause of imbalances rather than just managing symptoms.

Acupuncture effectively treats a wide spectrum of conditions, from chronic pain and musculoskeletal issues to stress, anxiety, digestive problems, and hormonal imbalances. Our treatments are tailored to each individual, taking into account their unique health history, lifestyle, and specific needs.

Services Offered

Our practice offers a comprehensive range of services, including:

• Acupuncture: Our foundation lies in the art of acupuncture. We utilize this centuries-old technique to alleviate pain, restore balance, and enhance overall well-being. Through precise needle placement, we stimulate specific meridians, or energy pathways, to re-establish the body's natural flow of energy (qi).

• Spanish-Speaking Acupuncture: We are proud to offer our services in both English and Spanish, ensuring compassionate and effective care for our diverse community.

• Car Accident Treatment: After a car accident, the body can experience a variety of injuries, including whiplash, back pain, and headaches. Acupuncture can help alleviate these symptoms, reduce inflammation, and promote faster healing.

• Sports Injury Treatment: For athletes and active individuals, acupuncture can be a valuable tool for pain management, muscle recovery, and injury prevention. We utilize acupuncture techniques to address muscle strains, ligament sprains, and other common sports-related injuries.

• Cupping: A component of TCM, cupping therapy involves placing specialized cups on the skin to create suction. This stimulates blood flow, releases muscle tension, and promotes deep tissue healing. Cupping can be helpful for pain relief, muscle recovery, and stress reduction.

• Moxibustion: Moxa, a traditional herbal therapy, involves burning dried mugwort near specific acupuncture points to generate heat and stimulate energy flow. This technique is often used to treat pain, boost circulation, and improve overall well-being.
