Lincoln Acupuncture Project

After a fall, a little reassuring touch certainly goes a long way. So do these tiny needles. Pop on in if you need a hand, we’d love to have you.

Last week I had the chance to treat a couple of Ohio State Buckeyes before the 2026 NCAA Track and Field Championships here in LNK. It’s cool because acupuncture really does help athletes in a bunch of different ways like accelerating recovery and healing, improving sleep, managing pain and injuries, improving both flexibility and mobility, supporting the immune system and working on the fight or flight response, aka regulating the nervous system.

It’s always an honor and a lot of fun to treat college athletes. They train very hard - striving to reach their goals while balancing academic requirements, college culture, endorsements (for some), social media (for most), the stressors of their own personal lives, along with the expectations cities and towns put on both individuals and teams to perform and possibly win a bit more each and every outing - they sure do have a lot on their plates. Thanks for popping in guys - best of luck in all of your endeavors, keep reaching for the stars:)

Here at the clinic, fun goes with healing like pie goes with ice cream. Pop on in, you’ll love it. needles

LAP doesn’t do a whole bunch of home visits but occasionally, it’s necessary. Here’s to feeling better soon :)

Here’s to another great 4 week session with veterans in collaboration with AtEase. Don’t forget, if you yourself are a veteran or you know, support and love veterans, AtEase offers great programs in both Lincoln and Omaha. I appreciate that AtEase has included the clinic and community acupuncture as an option in their programs that promote “well being, resiliency and connection”. Thanks again for the opportunity!

Look who made it in today! It’s always fun to see little ones and, it’s true, occasionally the quiet baby can hang out with mom, just resting and napping here at LAP.

Here at LAP, migraines are, unfortunately, a frequent complaint. Help is on the way though as recent clinical outcomes continue to demonstrate measurable improvements following acupuncture treatment.

Researchers at the Beijing Hospital of Traditional Medicine studied 120 adults ages 18-65 diagnosed with migraine (no aura present) randomly assigning them real acupuncture or sham acupuncture. Patients received 12 treatments over 4 weeks, 3 sessions weekly, every other day. In addition, they were required to record migraine frequency, pain intensity and duration along with any medication used in a diary during this period. Patients who received real acupuncture experienced less migraines per month, decreased headache days, lower pain intensity and less need for medication. No sham acupuncture here - pop on in and get the Real Stuff.

Most people don’t like their extremities messed with, I get it. After I was born, the 4th and the last, my youngest older brother pulled my toes and told my Mom to “send me back”. Toes and fingers can be sensitive, no doubt about it. That said, if you’ve got a toe spur or a hand with fingers that work less efficiently following a stroke - this really is exactly the place you want to be.

Big shout out to AtEase and the opportunity they’ve given me and LAP to work with more veterans. Acupuncture has proven to be incredibly beneficial for veterans whether it’s by providing pain relief, helping with the adverse effects of medication or easing stress, fatigue and PTSD.

AtEase, founded in 2009, creates programs that “promote well being, resiliency and connection” for veterans, active duty service members, frontline healthcare workers and their loved ones. I’m honored that they contacted the clinic to offer a couple of months of free acupuncture for their members, it’s been a great collaboration. If you yourself or someone you know could benefit from their services, check them out - they provide support in both Lincoln and Omaha.

This month, the clinic turned 8 years old. Holy Cow! Thanks so much for supporting LAP - this place wouldn’t be anything without each and everyone of you.
