I had such a great experience with Paolo. I did dry needling sessions to help alleviate pelvic floor spasms and after two sessions, the symptoms significantly decreased with most days feeling no spasms whatsoever. I highly recommend Paolo’s services to anyone experiencing similar symptoms. Paolo is also a very gentle and client-centered practitioner; I felt comfortable right from the first session.

Cupping, Gua Sha, Moxibustion, ESTIM
Cupping is a traditional therapy that uses heat or air to create a suction on your body. Cupping can move physical and emotional stagnation, relax muscles, release toxins, boost immunity, and stop pain.
Moxibustion uses the herb Ai Ye (mugwort) to warm and support the body’s healing. Moxibustion can help with scar tissue, digestive issues, pain, immunity, respiratory health, and so much more!
Gua Sha is a painless traditional therapy that uses a smooth edged tool to “scrape” the body. Gua sha can boost immunity, release muscle tension, ease jaw pain, increase blood circulation and soothe sore throats and trapped heat in the body.
ESTIM (Electric Stimulation) acupuncture combines acupuncture needles with electric stimulation. This method is commonly used to treat pain, inflammation, increase blood flow, and promote healing.
Qigong
Qi” means life force, and “gong” means skill. Qigong is the practice of gathering, circulating, and applying life force energy. Qigong involves breath, visualization, and movement. Qigong can support stress, anxiety, depression, body pain, digestive issues, and so much more. Paolo offers classes, workshops, and individual medical qigong sessions.
Gender Affirming Surgery recovery
Paolo specializes in pre- and post-op wellness care plans for gender affirming surgeries. Whether it be anxiety and stress before and after, post-surgery constipation, scar healing, bottom surgery complications with urination and/or sex, every consultation and plan is specialized to the client's needs.
Paolo understands the excitement and anxiety that is interwoven in preparing and recovering from gender affirming surgery, and is deeply honored to be entrusted with providing such care.
Events
Paolo has over two decades of event production and community organizing. For the Love offers classes, retreats, art collaborations, and more.
Popular customized events and fundraisers have included a hybrid of community acupuncture, sound baths, interactive art installations, featured local chefs and refreshments, as well as educational and social components. Paolo offers both online, hybrid, and in-person wellness retreats, workshops, and wellness events.
Acupuncture for Beauty
Facial acupuncture for beauty focuses on the appearance of the face and neck. Facial acupuncture increases circulation, decreases puffiness and fine lines, and promotes brighter and even complexions. Although aesthetically focused, acupuncture for beauty promotes a holistic approach that centers on the relationship between digestion, diet, water intake, managing stress levels, and sleep quality.
Acupuncture for beauty requires weekly sessions for a minimum of 6 weeks in a row. Schedule your free consultation today to see if you are a good candidate!
If you're looking for an acupuncturist who will listen to you, put your comfort first, and, of course, do great work, book with Paolo.
