Classical Five-Element Acupuncture
Bringing balance to body, mind, and spirit
Classical Five-Element Acupuncture begins and ends with Nature—the all-pervading force of Life and Balance; the Universe itself. It is the ultimate medicine, for it is the source of all medicines.
Rooted in deep understandings of humanity and Life, acupuncture is capable of helping us heal on every level—body, mind, and spirit.
​​
As practitioners, we draw on the wisdom of Nature, the movement of qi energy, yin and yang, the five elements, the meridians (the body’s energy pathways), human anatomy, and Western science to support people on their unique healing journey.
Together, you and I will work as a team to address the distress in the body, mind, and/or spirit that's brought you in—and treat the root cause of your symptoms at its origin. In this, we follow Nature’s wisdom: to know something is to know its source.
​
When you choose Classical Five-Element Acupuncture, you are choosing to rediscover your own source—and a renewed lease on life. This medicine's very design is to help you cultivate the health, balance, and resilience in body, mind, and spirit you'll need to meet life head on without compromising your well-being.
Together, let's discover what acupuncture can do for you.
About Jacob
I bring a grounded, heart-centered presence to my treatments, shaped by years of experience in Kundalini Yoga, martial arts, holistic healing, and executive leadership. My own journey with chronic pain led me to acupuncture, which has deepened my capacity to sit with others in their own pain, and offer care rooted in honesty and understanding. I believe, as Tara Brach writes, that “perhaps the biggest tragedy in our lives is that freedom is possible, yet we can pass our years trapped in the same old patterns.” In my experience, healing happens when we gently turn toward the places we’d much rather avoid. I sees each treatment as a sacred partnership—grounded in trust, presence, and the willingness to know what freedom from suffering could feel like.​

Getting Started
1
Book your intake appointment
As a student, I am only permitted to conduct two intakes per month. Be sure to reach out soon to ensure you receive a timely appointment!
2
Meet with me for your intake appointment
- The intake can last up to 3 hours
- Please wear undergarments
- DO NOT wear any fragrances, scented products, or makeup!
3
Schedule your first 4 needle treatments!
​The first needle treatment includes essential clearing protocols, and may take up to 2.5 hours in some cases. Going forward, needle treatments are 2 hours long.
No two treatments are alike! They are tailored to you as an individual to help build you up on all levels. Having weekly sessions ensures that your energy is building up progressively and with stability.
In the beginning, letting too much time lapse between treatments can actually wind up being a waste of your valuable time and financial investment. Old patterns can set back in and create, well, setbacks. Once your pulses reflect qualitative and quantitative improvement, we can then begin to space out treatments.
This initial building process is usually 4-8 weekly treatments.
It depends entirely on your own unique pulse picture.
