Licensed Acupuncturist (L.Ac.)
One room, one table and one acupuncturist, so the person you meet at the door is the person who places the needles.
I started Juniper with a single room, and I have kept it that way on purpose. A visit here is mine from start to finish: the talk, the tongue and pulse, the needles and the plan. I do not hand you to anyone else, and I do not book the next person while you are resting.
The people who come in are mostly adults with a sore back or neck, shoulders that stay tight at a desk, or stress that has settled in the body. Many are already seeing a doctor, a physical therapist or a counselor, and I like to know that. Acupuncture sits beside that care. It does not replace it.
What people come in for
- Back and neck pain
- Tight shoulders from desk work
- Headaches
- Stress and poor sleep

The room
A room set up for one person
The table is by the window, with a linen cover that is changed between visits. There is one stool, one cabinet and a few plants, and a shelf of folded blankets for the rest. I do not use scented products, and the room stays quiet.
It is on West Weaver Street in Carrboro, a short walk from the town center, with street parking nearby.
