Chiropractic Care

Chiropractic care at OC Well Studio focuses on restoring joint mobility, reducing pain, and helping your body move and function more efficiently. Through precise adjustments combined with soft tissue work and movement-based techniques, we address common issues such as back pain, neck pain, headaches, sports injuries, postural strain, and joint stiffness. Our approach is personalized and results-driven, helping patients ranging from prenatal to high level athletes in Newport Beach and Orange County return to the activities they love with improved strength, mobility, and overall function.

Acupuncture

Acupuncture is a time-tested therapy that uses very fine needles to stimulate specific points in the body to support healing, regulate the nervous system, and restore balance. At OC Well Studio in Newport Beach, acupuncture is used to help relieve pain, reduce stress, improve circulation, and support whole-body wellness. We also offer specialized treatments including fertility and IVF support acupuncture, facial acupuncture for natural skin rejuvenation, and microneedling treatments designed to stimulate collagen and improve skin texture. Whether you are seeking relief from chronic pain, support during fertility treatment, or a natural approach to skin health, acupuncture offers a gentle yet powerful path toward healing.

Dry Needling

Dry needling is a highly effective technique used to treat muscular pain, trigger points, and movement dysfunction. Using thin sterile needles placed directly into tight bands of muscle, dry needling helps release tension, improve blood flow, and reset dysfunctional muscle patterns that contribute to pain and stiffness. This treatment is commonly used for conditions such as neck and shoulder pain, back pain, headaches, sports injuries, and chronic muscle tightness. At OC Well Studio, Dr. Tara Pierce is dry needling certified, allowing this technique to be safely integrated with chiropractic care and other soft tissue therapies for a comprehensive approach to pain relief and improved movement.

Massage Therapy

Massage therapy at OC Well Studio combines therapeutic techniques to relieve muscle tension, improve circulation, and support recovery from injury or daily physical stress. Our therapists offer several specialized massage styles, including deep tissue massage for chronic muscle tightness and injury recovery, prenatal and postpartum massage to support the changing body during and after pregnancy, lymphatic drainage massage to reduce swelling and support detoxification, and relaxation massage to calm the nervous system and relieve stress. Whether you’re dealing with persistent pain, recovering from exercise, or simply looking to restore balance, massage therapy can help your body recover, relax, and function at its best.

Focused Shockwave Therapy (ESWT)

Focused shockwave therapy is an advanced, non-invasive treatment that uses targeted acoustic energy to stimulate tissue repair and accelerate healing. This technology is commonly used for chronic conditions such as plantar fasciitis, Achilles tendinitis, tennis elbow, rotator cuff injuries, and other stubborn tendon or soft tissue injuries. Treatments are quick, typically lasting 10–20 minutes, and work by stimulating circulation, breaking down scar tissue, and activating the body’s natural healing response. At OC Well Studio in Newport Beach, focused shockwave therapy is often combined with chiropractic care, dry needling, or soft tissue therapy to help patients recover faster and restore normal movement.

New Patient

For those who are brand new patients — includes new patient evaluation and initial treatment.

  • Chiropractic care may include such therapies as joint and muscle manipulation, rehabilitative exercise and education. The new patient encounter starts with a thorough history and examination prior to recommendations for care. If imaging is necessary this will be determined at the time of the initial encounter.

  • Our prenatal new patient chiropractic treatment includes a gentle, pregnancy-safe assessment and adjustment tailored to your stage of pregnancy. Both of our chiropractors are Webster Technique trained, focusing on reducing back, hip, and pelvic tension to improve comfort, mobility, and balance throughout pregnancy.

  • The initial acupuncture session includes initial history collection and review of your concerns and goals for treatment. Acupuncture involves the use of very fine needles placed at various acupoints on the body to improve the flow of energy. Acupuncture may be applied for various health concerns.

  • Dry needling, or trigger point specific sports acupuncture is an intervention for relieving muscle pain and tension and improving function. There is more assertive needle manipulation and electrical current may also be applied to enhance the effects of the therapy. Initial visit includes history and examination to determine if dry needling is appropriate for your case. Learn more about the difference between traditional acupuncture and dry needling here.

  • Facial rejuvenation acupuncture is both a cosmetic as well as a full-body wellness treatment. Using the most delicate needles, facial points are used to increase blood flow and energy to the skin. Additionally, acupuncture points on the body that are hand-selected to address your general health concerns and support your aesthetic goals are included. LED red light is applied to the face during the sessions. The first visit will include review of your concerns, goals and general wellness recommendations.

  • Includes a combination of the two services. After the initial history and any appropriate examination, acupuncture or dry needling treatment, as well as manual therapy and chiropractic adjustment will be given during the time of this session.

  • Microneedling utilizes a handheld device that rapidly oscillates as the single use 12 needle head is glided over the skin. These micro-punctures to the skin stimulates new collagen production and creates channels which allow skin care products to more efficiently penetrate and improve the condition of the skin. A series of sessions spaced one month apart is recommended for best results.
