What is Acupuncture?
Acupuncture is an ancient Eastern Asian technique using thin needles inserted into the body to stimulate the nervous system, muscles, and connective tissues to promote natural healing and relieve pain. It's safe and effective for various health conditions, including pain, stress, anxiety, allergies, and digestive issues. The initial consultation usually takes 75-90 minutes, allowing Annie to create a bespoke treatment plan that meets your specific needs.

Annie's inspiration for helping others comes from the women and men who have supported her along the way. Growing up Korean-American in Ohio, she was raised with the help of her grandmother who practiced the ancient art of healing that is embedded in Korean history and culture. As an adult, she started her acupuncture trainings in Oregon. This medicine is something that has been a detrimental part of her life, healing experience, and philosophy. She draws inspiration from her grandmother, mom, sister, and little brother, who have shown her the true meaning of love, empathy, and resilience. With an open mind and an open heart, she hopes to make Eastern Medicine accessible to everyone. Annie hopes to help build a community at Renessence, and she is always open for questions about Acupuncture. Discover the healing power of a safe space for you to grow, and discover your true essence. We look forward to welcoming you in our circle of well-being.
