Where Community Meets Style
At Emerge Acupuncture, our mission is to provide a holistic approach to healthcare, combining ancient traditions with modern techniques to promote overall wellness and vitality. Our team, led by Dana Bairen, L.Ac, Dipl. O.M., is dedicated to helping individuals achieve optimal health and balance in their lives.
Our Story
The journey began when Dana, a licensed acupuncturist and diplomat of Oriental medicine, realized the limitations of traditional massage therapy in treating serious or chronic illnesses. Her passion for helping others led her to pursue a career in Oriental medicine, earning a Bachelor's degree and later, Master's degrees in Acupuncture and Oriental Medicine. After working with cancer patients at an alternative therapy center, Dana opened the doors to Emerge Acupuncture in 2009, with a vision to provide a safe and supportive environment for individuals to heal, grow, and thrive.
