Serving Arlington, Rosslyn–Ballston & National Landing
Arlington runs on deadlines, and the Rosslyn–Ballston corridor plus National Landing send us a steady stream of patients who want care that fits around work, not instead of it. From Rosslyn it's a straight run: GW Parkway north along the river, exit at Route 123, and Chain Bridge Rd delivers you to our lot. Reverse-commute direction, so the drive is usually calm even at 5:30.

What We Treat
Research suggests acupuncture may help with much of what a high-output week leaves behind. What Arlington patients bring us most:
Pain & posture
Back pain, neck and shoulder tension, and the hip tightness of long sitting. Acupuncture and cupping may ease symptoms for many people; progressive weakness or numbness needs a physician first, full stop.
Stress & burnout
Racing mind, shallow sleep, jaw that won't unclench. Many patients find regular sessions help with stress and sleep — treatment is quiet, phone-free, and 30 to 60 minutes long.
Fertility & women's wellness
We support patients through IVF and IUI cycles with fertility acupuncture and broader women's health care — with realistic expectations, coordinated with your clinic.

Why It's Worth the Trip to McLean
Arlington has good acupuncturists — this is not a knock on them. The 15 minute drive buys things that are scarce inside the corridor:
- Hours: appointments until 9 PM, all 7 days — including Sunday evenings
- Parking: a free surface lot at the door instead of a garage hunt
- Scope: acupuncture, massage, gua sha, and cupping coordinated in one plan
- Language: licensed practitioners with 15+ years of practice, in English or Mandarin
If none of those matter to you, book closer to home — honestly. If two or more do, the Parkway is a pleasant commute.
