Evaluations/Consultations
At Box Acupuncture, your care begins with a focused consultation or clinical evaluation—designed to understand your unique needs and create a treatment plan that gets real results.
Whether you're seeking help for a new injury, chronic condition, or general health concern, our evaluations are comprehensive, collaborative, and tailored to identify the root causes—not just symptoms.
Some insurance panels require us to have a separate evaluation from treatment.
This category also includes herbal consultations if you're interested in purely Traditional Chinese Herbal Medicine.
Insurance-Based Acupuncture Treatments
Following guidelines set forth by the majority of in-network health insurance plans, choose this option if you are experiencing:
Covered Conditions are limited to musculoskeletal conditions and pain syndromes:
Musculoskeletal Pain Syndrome defined: Conditions with associated musculoskeletal signs and symptoms related to a sensation of hurting or strong discomfort caused by an injury, illness, disease, functional disorder, or condition. Musculoskeletal Pain disorders are typically categorized as structural, degenerative or inflammatory disorders, or biomechanical dysfunction of the joints of the body and/or related components of the neuromusculoskeletal system (muscles, tendons, fascia, nerves, ligaments/capsules, discs, and synovial structures) and related neurological manifestations or conditions.
In order for us to properly bill your health insurance plan, we must follow your plans' guidelines. If you are experiencing any condition not related to the above, then choose the non-insurance acupuncture options.
Non-Insurance Based Acupuncture Treatments
When it comes to your health, insurance shouldn’t dictate your results. At Box Acupuncture, our out-of-pocket model allows us to offer the highest level of personalized, uninterrupted care, designed around you, not billing codes.
Choosing to invest in private-pay acupuncture means:
✅ More Time With Your Provider
No rushed 15-minute slots or shared visits. Our sessions are 45–75 minutes of dedicated one-on-one time, every single time.
✅ Personalized, Not Protocol-Driven
Insurance-based acupuncture often follows rigid templates. We customize every treatment based on how you're feeling that day—physically, emotionally, and energetically.
✅ Access to Advanced Modalities
From dry needling and electroacupuncture to myofascial cupping and red light therapy, our full toolbox is available to you, not just what insurance allows.
✅ Freedom to Treat the Whole You
We’re not limited by symptom-based diagnosis codes. We treat root causes, patterns, and preventative health—not just what’s “billable.”
✅ Consistency & Continuity of Care
No surprise denials, limited visits, or network barriers. You’re in control of your care plan—and you never have to stop mid-progress because of insurance limits.
Please consider this option if you need more one-on-one time or want to invest in your health without the oversight of health insurance.
All treatments are FSA/HSA eligible and we can create superbills for reimbursement.
Myofascial Cupping Therapy
Myofascial Cupping Therapy is a modern, evidence-informed adaptation of Traditional Chinese Medicine cupping. This technique is used therapeutically to target fascia, trigger points, and muscular adhesions—making it ideal for pain relief, athletic recovery, and improved mobility.
Using fire-based glass cupping or plastic cups with adjustable suction, our practitioners gently lift the skin and fascia away from the muscle layer, promoting circulation, lymphatic drainage, and neuromuscular release. This decompressive effect allows tissue layers to glide more freely, accelerates healing, and relieves deep tension.
Trigger Point Acupuncture & Dry Needling Therapy
Dry Needling and Trigger Point Acupuncture are advanced, evidence-based techniques that target muscular pain and dysfunction at its source—the myofascial trigger point.
Using very fine, sterile needles (acupuncture needles), we stimulate tight, irritable bands of muscle—called trigger points—to release deep tension, restore normal muscle function, and reduce pain. The needle is inserted directly into the muscle knot, causing a localized twitch response that leads to immediate improvement in mobility, circulation, and pain relief.
At Box Acupuncture, Dr. Aaron is certified in both Western orthopedic dry needling (Myopain Seminars) and Traditional Chinese Medical trigger point techniques, allowing for a fully integrative and tailored treatment approach.
Men's Health Pelvic Floor Acupuncture and Dry Needling
Pelvic floor dysfunction isn’t just a women’s health issue. Millions of men silently struggle with chronic pelvic pain, tightness, sexual dysfunction, urinary symptoms, and postural issues linked to an overactive or inhibited pelvic floor.
At Box Acupuncture, Dr. Aaron specializes in Men’s Health Pelvic Floor Acupuncture and Dry Needling, offering targeted, discreet, and highly effective treatment for male patients—especially athletes, active professionals, and those recovering from injury or surgery.
Pelvic floor acupuncture and dry needling use ultra-fine needles to release trigger points, decompress nerves, and reset neuromuscular function in deep pelvic and core muscles. This includes:
External pelvic floor muscles (perineum, ischiocavernosus, bulbospongiosus)
Deep core stabilizers (obturator internus, piriformis, adductors, glutes)
Accessory and postural muscles (QL, iliacus, TFL, pelvic diaphragm)
Fascial and nerve pathways that affect the bladder, prostate, and pelvic pain
We assess and treat the entire kinetic chain—from your hip mobility and core control to fascial restrictions and pelvic rotation patterns.
Cosmetic Acupuncture and Microneedling
Natural Results. Medical Precision. Radiant Skin.
Cosmetic acupuncture and microneedling offer a powerful, holistic alternative to harsh chemical treatments and injectables—stimulating your body’s own collagen production, improving skin tone, and restoring your natural glow from the inside out.
At Box Acupuncture, our approach blends ancient wisdom with modern technology, creating visible, lasting changes without compromising your health or mobility.
Cosmetic acupuncture (also known as facial rejuvenation acupuncture) uses ultra-fine needles to stimulate circulation, collagen, and lymphatic drainage in the face. Points are also placed on the body to address the internal causes of premature aging—such as digestion, stress, sleep, and hormone imbalance.
Microneedling, also known as collagen induction therapy, uses a professional-grade device to create thousands of controlled microchannels in the skin. This triggers the body’s healing response, leading to new collagen, elastin, and capillary growth.
We use sterile, medical-grade needles and serums infused with hyaluronic acid, peptides, or Chinese herbal extracts, depending on your skin goals.
Red Light Therapy
Red Light Therapy, also known as Photobiomodulation (PBM), is a non-invasive treatment that uses specific wavelengths of red and near-infrared (NIR) light to stimulate the body’s natural healing processes—right down to the cellular level.
By delivering light energy into the skin, muscles, and joints, red light therapy activates mitochondria (your cells' “power plants”), boosting ATP production, reducing inflammation, and accelerating tissue repair.
At Box Acupuncture, we use medical-grade, multi-wavelength red light panels—not the underpowered consumer-grade or spa devices. Our system delivers results that are measurable, science-backed, and trusted by professional athletes and recovery clinics worldwide.
In-Body Body Composition Testing
Go Beyond the Scale. Know What You're Made Of.
Weight alone doesn’t tell the whole story. InBody Composition Testing gives you a deeper, more accurate picture of your health by analyzing what’s really behind the number on the scale—muscle, fat, water, and more.
In just 15 seconds, the InBody 770 delivers a detailed, non-invasive scan that helps you track progress, optimize training, and personalize your treatment or wellness plan. Whether you're recovering from injury, building muscle, or improving metabolic health, this test is a powerful tool to guide your journey.
