How Acupuncture Helps

Supportive Care for Seasonal Wellness

Through changing seasons, many people turn to acupuncture as calming, supportive care for everyday wellness. Treatments are restful and personalized to how you're feeling. This is complementary care that supports your comfort and sense of well-being. For infections, breathing difficulty, or any concerning symptom, please see your physician promptly — acupuncture works alongside, not instead of, medical care.

Systematic Review

An individual-patient-data meta-analysis of nearly 21,000 patients found acupuncture was associated with modest improvements in chronic pain compared with both sham and no-acupuncture controls, with benefits that persisted over time.

Founder · Registered TCM Practitioner & Registered Acupuncturist

Lu Gan founded Amrita Healthcare in 2022. She comes from a third-generation family of Traditional Chinese Medicine practitioners and holds a master's degree in acupuncture from Tianjin University of Traditional Chinese Medicine, where she was later named a distinguished alumna. She trained under Dr. Wei Liu. The clinic's name carries her own: "Amrita" is Sanskrit for divine nectar, and her Chinese name, 甘露 (Gan Lu), means the same thing. Her practice follows the principle of Yang Zheng — cultivating inner resilience rather than treating symptoms alone. Her work has been featured in People's Daily.

Frequently Asked Questions

Answers to common questions about your care and what to expect.

What does seasonal-wellness care involve?

It's regular, supportive care for people who feel run down or want to feel more resilient through a demanding stretch or a change of seasons. Treatment is built around your individual pattern rather than a fixed protocol.

Can acupuncture prevent illness?

We don't make that claim. What we offer is supportive care aimed at helping you feel more rested and at ease — alongside, not instead of, the basics of sleep, nutrition, movement, and your medical care.

Should I see my doctor for respiratory symptoms?

Yes. For infections, breathing difficulty, or any concerning symptom, please see your physician promptly. Acupuncture works alongside, never instead of, medical care.

How often do wellness patients come in?

Many come regularly through a season or a busy stretch, then space visits out. We'll suggest a rhythm that fits your life and goals.
