Shelly Boronda L AC

Welcome to our practice, where we offer a range of services including acupuncture, cupping, and aromapoint therapy. Our experienced practitioner, Shelly Boronda, L.Ac., has over 22 years of experience in providing skilled treatments in a relaxed and soothing environment.

Shelly received her Master of Traditional Oriental Medicine from Five Branches University in Santa Cruz, California, and is board certified and licensed to practice acupuncture and herbs by the State of California. She continues to update her knowledge through extended courses in meridian balancing therapy, advanced cupping techniques, aromapoint therapy, and whole foods based nutrition.

Our primary focus is on bringing awareness to how the body communicates through symptomatic patterns and promoting self-care practices that support the body's natural healing abilities. We incorporate acupuncture, cupping, acupressure, dietary and lifestyle recommendations, and aromapoint therapy to address a wide variety of conditions.

Our Services

We offer acupuncture, which is a safe and effective way to promote the body's self-healing abilities. We also provide cupping therapy to release tight muscles and aid in relaxation. Additionally, our AromaPoint Therapy combines the healing potency of essential oils with specific acupoints to catalyze profound shifts in the body, mind, and spirit.

What to Expect from Your First Visit

When you arrive for your first acupuncture session, we will review your completed intake form and have a brief discussion about the reason for your visit. We will also discuss your expectations and the conditions you would like to address. Following a brief examination of the pulse and tongue, acupuncture needles will be placed, and if indicated, cupping therapy will be performed. You will recline comfortably on a massage table for 15-20 minutes with the needles in place.
