Why the name “Box” Acupuncture?

Initially in 2016 when the owner, Dr. Aaron, was still studying to become a Licensed Acupuncturist, he was very involved in sport of CrossFit. To him, CrossFit was not only a gym or lifestyle, but a community of like-minded individuals seeking to better themselves together through the fitness and lifestyle modification.

Every CrossFit gym held the same belief that community is what sets apart a typical gym from a CrossFit “Box.” Since then, Dr. Aaron has carried the same tradition.

Box Acupuncture was founded on the principle of providing a safe space for all its patients, staff, and providers a community where everyone is treated with equal respect and care.

At the end of the day, Box Acupuncture Traditional Chinese Medicine is a healing space that will always aim to provide a sense of community away from the busy and bustling life of Silicon Valley.

We are not only a clinic that specializes in pain management, but a community of diverse healthcare providers who specialize in exceptional patient care.

What makes Box Acupuncture Unique?

One of the many things that makes our practice unique is that we are a big clinic with a “small-clinic” mentality. Our Licensed Acupuncturists come from diverse ethnic backgrounds who have unique life and educational experiences, but all specialize in pain management through acupuncture. We are open 7-days a week including Saturdays and Sundays, because we know that healthcare doesn’t stop during the weekdays. Dr. Aaron, the owner, started the practice with this in mind because he felt that accessibility should be the tenet of all healthcare.

In the sense of a small-clinic mentality, our Acupuncture providers are easily accessible through email and phone call within normal business times and limited availability after-hours. Healthcare and communication are of utmost importance to our clinic as well as transparency. We become a part of your healthcare team by communicating with your healthcare providers, Physical Therapists, Chiropractors, Medical Doctors, and other Medical Specialists.

At the end of the day, we strive to be part of your team, giving you advice and information that will help empower your medical decisions and to also help you advocate for your own health and to participate in your healthcare journey while navigating different treatment options and therapies. We will always aim to better our own education to provide services and therapies for the better of our established patients.
