How Acupuncture Combines with Adjunctive Therapies for Holistic Wellness

You might not think of combining acupuncture with other holistic wellness practices, but it is a great option to pair with a variety of adjunctive therapies. Let’s look at three different options to see how they might compliment each other and benefit a patient’s overall health and wellness journey. 

Perhaps the easiest way to express this concept is through the story of a fictional patient. Let’s look at the life of “Emma” and use her to illustrate just what such a wellness journey might look like. When Emma first walked into her acupuncturist’s office, she carried more than just physical pain. Years of chronic stress had manifested as migraines, insomnia, and a persistent feeling of being unmoored. Traditional medicine offered her temporary relief, but she longed for something deeper — a way to reconnect with herself and cultivate lasting well-being. That’s when her practitioner introduced her to a holistic approach, weaving together acupuncture with complementary therapies like sound bathing, essential oils, and herbal medicine.

It has been shown sound vibrations promote healing and provide a type of massage to the organs. Six main organs that benefit from this sound vibration include the liver, heart, spleen, lungs, kidneys and triple burner. These are known as yin organs in Traditional Chinese Medicine and are associated with wood, fire, earth, metal and water.
