What We Treat
At OC Well Studio, you'll find a diverse range of treatments from dry needling to massage therapy, chiropractic, focused shockwave and acupuncture near you, tailored to address a variety of different health concerns.

Item description
-
Chronic and acute neck issues—cervical disc degeneration, herniation, facet dysfunction, and radiculopathy—cause pain, stiffness, and nerve symptoms. Targeted chiropractic care with dry needling often reduces pain, restores mobility, and corrects muscle–joint imbalances. A thorough cervical evaluation guides a tailored treatment plan and, if needed, referral for imaging or specialist care.
-
For rotator cuff pain, a multimodal approach often yields the best results: dry needling targets trigger points and tight muscle bands to reduce spasm and restore range of motion, while extracorporeal shockwave therapy (ESWT) promotes tissue healing and can break up calcific deposits, reducing pain and improving function; these can be combined with acupuncture to address broader pain patterns and nervous-system regulation, chiropractic or physical therapy to restore shoulder mechanics and scapular stability, and therapeutic massage to decrease myofascial tension and improve circulation—together these treatments help reduce inflammation, strengthen supporting muscles, and accelerate return to normal activity.
-
Multimodal care eases chronic postural and back pain by treating symptoms and biomechanical imbalances. Chiropractic restores spinal alignment; acupuncture reduces pain and inflammation; dry needling releases trigger points; massage improves circulation and flexibility. Rehab exercises, posture training, and ergonomic adjustments retrain movement, strengthen support muscles, and prevent recurrence—reducing pain, increasing range of motion, and restoring lasting stability.
-
At our Newport Beach office we treat sciatica with coordinated acupuncture, chiropractic adjustments, dry needling, and therapeutic massage to reduce nerve irritation, restore alignment, and relieve muscle tension. Chiropractors correct biomechanical issues with spinal and pelvic adjustments; acupuncturists use points to calm inflammation and modulate pain; dry needling releases trigger points in gluteal and hip muscles that compress the sciatic nerve; massage improves circulation and tissue mobility. Individualized plans may include home exercises and ergonomic guidance to reduce pain, restore function, and prevent recurrence.
-
Achilles tendinopathy: overuse injury causing pain, stiffness, and weakness from repetitive loading, sudden activity increases, or poor biomechanics. Treatment aims to reduce pain, promote healing, and restore strength and flexibility.
Dry needling reduces muscle and peritendinous tension, increases blood flow, and promotes healing—often used alongside rehabilitation—while shockwave therapy breaks down scar tissue, stimulates neovascularization, and accelerates tissue remodeling for chronic cases.
For persistent Achilles pain, book an evaluation to determine the optimal treatment mix.
-
At OC Well Studio in Newport Beach, our plantar fasciitis care combines acupuncture, targeted massage, rehab exercises, and FDA-cleared shockwave therapy to speed healing, reduce pain, break down scar tissue, and improve blood flow. With individualized assessment, gait correction, and home-care guidance, this non-invasive outpatient plan relieves heel pain, restores function, and lowers recurrence so you can resume activities confidently.
-
Pregnancy has many side effects including back pain, public bone pain, and sciatica — Dr. Pierce is certified in the Webster Prenatal Chiropractic Technique and has extensive experience as a pregnancy chiropractor and acupuncturist.
Many families use acupuncture as an adjunct therapy to improve their chances of conceiving naturally, as well as assisting them through IVF or IUI.
Acupuncture can also be used to encourage breech babies to turn as well as to promote natural labor induction.
-
Fertility acupuncture is a gentle, evidence-informed therapy that boosts uterine and ovarian blood flow, balances hormones, and reduces stress. Fine needles at specific points promote circulation, support ovulation, improve endometrial receptivity, and address irregular cycles, implantation issues, and IVF side effects. Patients often see more regular cycles, less anxiety, and better well-being when combined with lifestyle, nutrition, and coordinated fertility care.
