Neuro-Acupuncture is a specialized and contemporary style of acupuncture that focuses on stimulating scalp points that correspond with different regions of the brain. By integrating Chinese medicine with modern neurological understanding, this powerful technique can help reset and rewire the nervous system—offering hope and relief for those dealing with neurological disorders, chronic pain, and post-traumatic recovery.

At Village Wellness, we are proud to offer Neuro-Acupuncture as part of our holistic acupuncture services, helping patients improve mobility, reduce pain, and enhance overall function.

How Does Neuro-Acupuncture Work?

Neuro-Acupuncture targets specific points on the scalp that align with key regions of the cerebral cortex, which governs sensory and motor functions. Using precise needle placement and gentle stimulation, this technique activates the brain’s natural ability to repair and regulate the nervous system.

By engaging both the central nervous system (brain and spinal cord) and the peripheral nervous system (nerves that control movement and sensation), Neuro-Acupuncture helps bridge the gap between mind and body function.

Many patients experience immediate improvements, including:

✔ Increased movement and stability (for stroke, spinal cord injuries, and neurological conditions)
✔ Reduced pain and inflammation
✔ Boosted immune and reproductive system function
✔ Enhanced cognitive clarity, communication, and emotional well-being

Who Can Benefit from Neuro-Acupuncture?

This groundbreaking therapy has been highly effective for a wide range of neurological conditions, including:

🧠 Stroke Recovery & Paralysis – Helping patients regain movement, coordination, and balance.
🧠 Parkinson’s Disease – Reducing tremors, stiffness, and improving motor control.
🧠 Traumatic Brain Injuries & Spinal Cord Injuries – Supporting nerve regeneration and rehabilitation.
🧠 Multiple Sclerosis – Alleviating pain, fatigue, and improving muscle function.
🧠 Autism – Enhancing focus, communication, and social interaction.
🧠 Phantom Limb Pain & Complex Regional Pain Syndrome (CRPS) – Soothing nerve pain and hypersensitivity.
🧠 Balance Issues & Dizziness – Supporting vestibular health for improved coordination.
🧠 PTSD & Emotional Trauma – Regulating the nervous system to promote calm and resilience.

By integrating Western neurological diagnostics with the wisdom of Eastern medicine, Neuro-Acupuncture provides a comprehensive approach to healing that works in harmony with other medical and therapeutic interventions.

What to Expect from a Neuro-Acupuncture Session

During your session at Village Wellness, we will conduct a neurological assessment to determine the best scalp acupuncture points for your specific condition. Treatments involve the use of very fine needles, precisely placed on the scalp, to stimulate key brain regions and improve neurological function.

Patients often report feeling a shift immediately—whether it’s increased movement, pain relief, or mental clarity. Because every nervous system is unique, results will vary, but many find progressive improvements with continued care.

Neuro-Acupuncture can be combined with Neuro-Meridian Acupuncture, which focuses on muscle tone and movement, offering additional support for those with spasticity, paralysis, or muscle weakness.
