What Is Medical Acupuncture?

Medical acupuncture is a therapeutic approach based on traditional Chinese-medicine principles, practiced by physicians who are trained in both Western and Eastern medicine. Unlike traditional acupuncturists who may focus solely on Chinese-medicine theory, medical acupuncture integrates evidence-based Western medical diagnosis with acupuncture treatment.

At PremierMD you get something rare: a board-certified family-medicine physician who understands your condition through both medical and holistic lenses. Dr. Boguslavsky can diagnose your pain or illness using conventional medicine, then treat it with acupuncture, medications, lifestyle changes—or a combination that works best for your body.

You don’t have to choose between Western and Eastern medicine. You get both.

What makes our approach different:

  • Board-certified physician performing your treatment, not a technician
  • Covered by most insurance plans and Medicare (rare for acupuncture)
  • Integrated with your primary-care team for complete health management
  • Evidence-based approach combining ancient wisdom with modern medicine

YOUR FIRST VISIT

What to Expect at Your Acupuncture Appointment

🩺

Comprehensive Evaluation

Your first visit lasts 45-60 minutes. Dr. Boguslavsky reviews your medical history, current symptoms, and performs a physical exam. He diagnoses your condition using both Western and Eastern medicine principles.

45-60 min physician visit

📋

Personalized Treatment Plan

Based on your specific condition we create a plan that may include acupuncture, cupping therapy, Chinese herbal medicine, or a combination. You’ll know exactly what to expect and how many sessions you’ll likely need.

Tailored to your goals

The Acupuncture Session

Ultra-thin needles (much thinner than injection needles) are placed at specific points. Most patients describe it as painless or just a slight pinch. You’ll rest 15-20 minutes while the needles work—many of our patients fall asleep.

Painless & deeply relaxing

🔄

Ongoing Care

Most conditions improve within 4-8 sessions. We schedule follow-ups based on your response. Between visits you can reach Dr. Boguslavsky directly with any questions or concerns.

Does It Hurt?

This is the most common question we hear. The needles are hair-thin—much finer than those used for injections. Most patients feel only a mild tingling or pressure; many fall asleep because it’s so relaxing.

Hair-thin = painless
