Using an integrative approach of Chinese and Functional Medicine for whole body wellness. We provide quality, affordable health care services.

At Urban Acupuncture, our vision is to make the benefits of Acupuncture and Oriental Medicine readily available to everyone in the Chicago/Lakeview community. All of our treatments are given with the whole person in mind. We create a comfortable, safe environment to meet your health needs. Most people seek out Acupuncture and Chinese herbal medicine after a disappointing experience with Western medication and treatments. Even the strongest medications sometimes only mask symptoms. True healing can only begin when the body heals itself. Often times, Eastern Medicine is a beneficial compliment and can improve the efficacy of Western medicine. As a registered acupuncturist LAC, I have had the opportunity to heal patients through a wide variety of acupuncture and eastern medicine practices. Please review the conditions treated page to see if acupuncture and eastern medicine might be appropriate for you. Please contact me for a free 15 minute consultation or simply to book an appointment. If you’re recovering from or struggling with a health problem there is only one reason: your body’s self- healing mechanisms haven’t done their job. Sometimes just a little help is needed. Urban Acupuncture is located in the Lakeview area, with easy access via car or public transportation (Paulina Brown line or Belmont Redline).

According to Traditional Chinese Medicine, winter is the most Yin time - ideal for rest, reflection and going inward. Rather than starting a New Year's resolution now, wait until early spring when Yang energy supports new beginnings and growth. At Urban Acupuncture, we help you harmonize with nature's rhythms for lasting health and vitality. Contemplate your goals, then put them into action around the Lunar New Year in February.

You're not alone—and your intuition is valid.

Many believe in partnering with their bodies, not pushing them. The data agrees: acupuncture alongside IVF is linked with higher pregnancy and live birth rates compared to standard treatment alone (Manheimer, 2023).

We focus on what your body already knows—circulation, stress balance, and immune support—so the path to implantation feels more supported.

If that resonates, you'll feel at home at Urban Acupuncture. We'll coordinate with your fertility team and hold space on the days that count.

A major review found acupuncture matched medication for preventing migraines—while causing far fewer side effects—and it outperformed the control group too (Zhao, 2020).

This isn't anti-medicine. It's pro-relief. For many people, acupuncture is a smart, low-side-effect option that works alongside their doctor's plan.

At Urban Acupuncture, we coordinate with your care team and keep things practical. Curious if it's a fit for your pattern—whether hormonal, stress-related, or neck tension?

Yes, acupuncture is relaxing—but the real benefit is how it communicates with your nervous system and the brain centers that control your hormones.

Research with women facing ovarian insufficiency or missing periods found that acupuncture helped support more spontaneous ovulation, healthier hormone levels, and more developing follicles visible on scans (Lee et al., 2019).

This isn't just about feeling good—it's about physiology. Gentle signals that improve flow and help your brain and ovaries communicate better.

At Urban Acupuncture, we create treatment plans that blend traditional wisdom with modern science, so your body can do what it's been trying to do. Call +1-773-727-5042 or visit https://urbanacupuncturechicago.com to get started.

When tiny acupuncture points are activated, something wonderful happens: your body's "rest" response kicks in. Muscles unclench, breathing slows, and inflammatory signals settle down. That calmer internal state makes drifting off to sleep feel possible again.

And the science backs it up. In a randomized trial, people receiving acupuncture slept longer and were more likely to see real improvement than those in the control group (Li, 2023).

At Urban Acupuncture, sessions are quiet, cozy, and personalized to your needs. Many patients even doze off on the table while calming points like Shenmen or Anmian do their work.

When anxiety spikes, it's not "all in your head"—it's in your nervous system.\n\nResearch shows acupuncture helps activate your body's natural calm switch, nudging your nervous system toward rest-and-digest mode (Amorim, 2019). It's also linked with higher GABA—your brain's natural calming signal—and steadier stress hormones.\n\nTranslation: fewer spirals, more steadiness, and a nervous system that remembers how to settle. Best part? No serious side effects were reported across the trials.\n\nAt Urban Acupuncture, we choose gentle, soothing points to help your system downshift and find calm again.\n\nCall +1-773-727-5042 or visit https://urbanacupuncturechicago.com to learn more.\n\nSource: Amorim, Daniela, et al. 2019. https://pubmed.ncbi.nlm.nih.gov/31760440/

Ever wonder why your acupuncturist cringes when you mention loving ice water? In Traditional Chinese Medicine, extreme cold is said to constrict energy flow, impair digestion, thicken mucus, and deplete vitality. Even modern research advises against icing injuries. Sip on warming teas instead to stoke your inner fire. For more TCM wisdom, visit Urban Acupuncture Chicago at https://urbanacupuncturechicago.com or call +17737275042

Think detox is all willpower and prescriptions? There's another option: ear acupuncture.

Hospitals in London used it during opioid detox, and more people completed treatment (Boseley, 2022).

How? It calms your stress response and helps your body release natural endorphins—so cravings become easier to manage and hard days feel more do-able.

Curious how this could help you? Visit Urban Acupuncture, call +1-773-727-5042, or explore https://urbanacupuncturechicago.com. We'll work with your care team to keep things simple and supportive.
