About Renee Verspohl M.S., L.Ac

After receiving acupuncture treatments at age 15, Renée Verspohl knew she wanted to be an acupuncturist.

She knows what it is like to have traditional medicine fail, and the many side effects you can encounter. Luckily, thanks to her mother who has always been open to Alternative Medicine, a whole new world was opened up for her through acupuncture and other alternative treatments. Also being a dancer and dance teacher, it was upsetting to see fellow dancers injuring themselves and risk their health by choosing methods of pain reduction that could eventually damage them permanently and ruin their career. Acupuncture is a safe method of pain reduction and healing before choosing high risk methods such as cortisone injections. Renée Verspohl believes that along with a healthy lifestyle, acupuncture can help in the treatment of many conditions.

A typical first visit would first start off with a quick review of your initial intake form that you can either request to be mailed to you, download from this website, or you also have the option to come 15 minutes early to your first appointment. These answers are used to figure out the best acupuncture treatment for you. A typical visit will last an hour to an hour and a half depending on the change of your symptoms, and any new questions I need to ask you about your current condition. Every session my goal is to make you feel as comfortable as possible and achieve optimum wellness.
