Acupuncture in Chesterfield

Turn Back Time with Traditional Healing

Your path to wellness doesn’t have to be complicated. The team at Wahl Chiropractic & Acupuncture in Chesterfield offers acupuncture as a gentle yet powerful way to address your health concerns and support your body’s natural healing abilities. This remarkable healing art has served more than two billion people worldwide, making it one of the oldest and most trusted forms of medicine still practiced today.

Ancient Wisdom Meets Modern Understanding

Through the precise placement of ultra-thin needles (about the width of a human hair) along specific energy pathways, acupuncture helps restore your body’s natural balance and promotes healing from within. These pathways, known as meridians, carry vital energy throughout your body. When this energy becomes blocked, pain and illness can result. Wahl Chiropractic & Acupuncture uses acupuncture to clear these blockages and restore your body’s natural flow.

Acupuncture FAQs

What’s the difference between chiropractic care and acupuncture?

Chiropractic care restores movement and alignment in the body, like tuning a car to run smoothly. Acupuncture supports healing by improving the flow of energy (Qi) and blood. Together, they offer a whole-body, natural approach to wellness.

Does acupuncture hurt?

Most people feel little to nothing during treatment. The needles are hair-thin and gently inserted. Some may feel a light pinch or tingling, but many find the experience highly relaxing.

How long are sessions, and how often should I come in?

Each visit takes about an hour, including consultation and treatment. Acupuncture itself lasts 20-30 minutes. We usually recommend 1-2 visits per week at first, then adjust based on your needs.

Can acupuncture help with chronic pain?

Yes! Acupuncture is known to ease both acute and chronic pain, especially when combined with chiropractic care.

When will I feel results?

Many people feel relaxed after their first session and notice better sleep or mood soon after. Some conditions improve quickly, while others may take a few weeks.

What happens at the first appointment?

You’ll have a consultation with Dr. Wahl and, in most cases, begin treatment the same day. Wear loose clothing, though a gown may be provided if needed. You’ll be cared for in a clean, calm space designed to help you feel completely at ease.

Is acupuncture safe for everyone?

It’s safe for nearly everyone. We avoid sensitive areas like the eyes, genitalia, or open wounds. There are times when some points are not used, like when a woman is pregnant. Rest assured, your safety is always our priority.

How does it help with stress, anxiety, or sleep?

By calming the nervous system and restoring balance, acupuncture helps many patients feel more relaxed and sleep more soundly.

What are Dr. Wahl’s qualifications?

Dr. Wahl completed post-doctorate acupuncture training through Logan University, passed all certification exams, and is licensed by the State of Missouri. “I’ve also spent years studying with my father, a licensed acupuncturist.”

Your Safety is Our Priority

We maintain rigorous safety standards at our Chesterfield office. Every needle is sterile, single-use, and properly disposed of after treatment. We thoroughly clean all treatment areas with medical-grade sanitizers before each session. Your comfort and safety guide every aspect of our care.
