THE
Dr. MICHIKO
APPROACH

Precision, Presence, and Personalized Care

Our acupuncture is never approached as a one-size-fits-all treatment.

Care begins with understanding the whole person—their health history, current symptoms,

medical treatments, lifestyle, emotional well-being, and long-term goals.

Each treatment plan is thoughtfully individualized and may draw from Traditional Chinese Medicine, Japanese-influenced acupuncture techniques, trigger point-based methods, and supportive lifestyle guidance.

The goal is to provide attentive, clinically informed care that works in harmony

with the body and can complement conventional medical treatment.

Integrative Eastern and Western Care

Dr. Michiko does not view Eastern and Western medicine as opposing systems. Acupuncture can be used alongside conventional medical care, including fertility treatment, hormonal therapy, medication, diagnostic testing, and care from reproductive endocrinologists, OB-GYNs, primary care physicians, and other specialists.

For patients undergoing IVF, IUI, egg retrieval, embryo transfer, or other fertility procedures, acupuncture care may be coordinated around the medical treatment schedule. The intention is not to replace reproductive medicine, but to provide additional support throughout a physically and emotionally demanding process.

Personalized Concierge Care

Dr. Michiko offers a private-pay concierge acupuncture service for patients seeking a more individualized, discreet, and thoughtfully coordinated experience.

The concierge model allows care to be guided by the patient’s clinical needs rather than by insurance restrictions or standardized visit requirements. Treatment recommendations can therefore be adapted to the patient’s goals, medical schedule, response to care, and stage of life.

Care Begins With Listening

Personalization

Every patient has a different health history, constitution, comfort level, and treatment goal. Care is adapted accordingly rather than following a standardized protocol.

Gentleness

Treatment is designed to work with the body rather than overwhelm it. Techniques, stimulation, and supporting therapies are selected with careful attention to the patient’s sensitivity and comfort.

Whole-Person Care

Physical and emotional health are deeply connected. Treatment may therefore address not only the primary concern, but also stress, sleep, energy, recovery, and overall resilience.

A Gentle Approach,
Informed by Japanese Sensibility

A Gentle Approach,
Informed by
Japanese Sensibility

Dr. Michiko is Japanese, and her cultural background naturally informs the way she approaches care—

with attentiveness, precision, sensitivity, and respect for each patient’s individual comfort.

Her work is not limited to one specific Japanese acupuncture system. Instead, she draws from several clinical traditions, including Traditional Chinese Medicine, trigger point-based acupuncture, and Japanese-influenced techniques.

Her training includes exposure to the Kiiko Matsumoto Method, but treatments are selected according to the patient’s condition rather than defined by a single style.
