Ancient wisdom. Modern healing. Licensed acupuncture at our Stuart office, to help your body heal, restore balance, and feel your best.
Chiropractic
What Is Acupuncture?
Acupuncture is a practice with thousands of years of history behind it. Very fine, sterile, single-use needles are placed at specific points on the body to prompt your nervous system, circulation, and soft tissue to respond. Most people describe the sensation as a light tap or nothing at all, and many find the session itself deeply restful.
At Simpson Longevity House, acupuncture is delivered by a licensed acupuncturist and sits alongside the rest of your care, so it complements chiropractic, decompression, massage and movement work rather than replacing them.
Acupuncture is offered at our Stuart office, 104 SE Lonita Street, one block west of US-1 on Kanner Highway. It is the only one of our four offices across Martin, St. Lucie and Okeechobee counties where acupuncture is available, so acupuncture appointments booked from any location are scheduled into Stuart.
Appointments Tuesday and Thursday, 4 to 7 PM at 104 SE Lonita Street, Stuart. Sessions are by appointment only.
LIMITED TIME OFFER: First Two Visits $180
New acupuncture patients. Includes consultation and your first two treatment sessions.

How It Works
- 1
Consultation & Assessment
We review your health history, current symptoms, sleep, stress and goals, then examine the areas involved to build a treatment plan specific to you.
- 2
Treatment Session
You rest comfortably while very fine, sterile, single-use needles are placed at selected points. Most sessions run 20 to 40 minutes of retention time, and most people relax deeply or fall asleep.
- 3
Aftercare & Plan
Needles are removed and disposed of. You can return to normal activity right away. We agree on a cadence and pair the work with nutrition, movement or other therapies where it helps.
Before your visit: eat something light beforehand, wear loose clothing, and tell us about any medications, implants, or recent health changes.
What You'll Feel & When (Typical Timeline)
Same day
Many people feel calm, loose, and noticeably relaxed for the rest of the day. Some feel a little sleepy, which is normal.
1 to 3 weeks
With a short series, usually one or two sessions a week to start, changes in pain, sleep and energy tend to build and hold longer between visits.
Ongoing
Frequency tapers as your goals are met. Some patients keep a periodic maintenance visit during high stress or heavy training periods.
Experience the Benefits
Relieves pain & inflammation
Targets back, neck and joint pain, headaches, neuropathy and stubborn overuse aches.
Reduces stress & promotes relaxation
Helps calm anxiety and balance emotions, and most people find the session itself restorative.
Improves sleep & energy
Better sleep quality and steadier daytime energy are two of the most commonly reported changes.
Supports overall wellness & healing
Supports immune function and general well-being as part of a broader, active care plan.

Safety & What to Tell Us First
Acupuncture is safe for most people when performed by a licensed practitioner with sterile, single-use needles. We screen every patient first and modify or avoid treatment in the following situations:
- Pregnancy, which changes which points are appropriate
- Blood thinners or a bleeding disorder
- A pacemaker or other implanted electrical device, if electroacupuncture is being considered
- Active infection or broken skin at a planned needle site
- Lymphedema in the limb being treated
- Any recent surgery, injury, or significant change in your health
Tell us about any implants, medications, or health changes before your first treatment.
Why Longevity House
The Simpson Medical Difference
At Simpson Longevity House, acupuncture is not a bolt-on. It is planned alongside the rest of your care by a team that talks to each other.
Licensed, credentialed care
Treatment is delivered by Shu Lin Wu, A.P., a licensed acupuncturist and Oriental medicine practitioner, not by a technician.
A plan, not a package
Point selection, session length and cadence are set for your presentation and revisited as you respond.
Whole-body approach
Acupuncture pairs naturally with chiropractic adjustments, disc decompression, massage, stretching and nutrition guidance under one roof.
Clear expectations
We tell you what acupuncture is likely to do for your situation and what it is not, before you commit to a series.
Patient Story
Shu Lin believes true wellness comes from a balance of body, mind, and spirit. Her caring approach ensures every treatment is tailored to help you feel your best, naturally.

FAQ
Any Concerns?
We'll put your mind at rest
Q: Does acupuncture hurt?
For most people, no. The needles are far finer than the ones used for injections. You may feel a brief tap, a dull ache, or a warm heaviness at a point, and many people feel nothing at all.
Q: How many sessions will I need?
It depends on what you are treating and how long you have had it. Many conditions respond over a series of 6 to 10 sessions, often one or two a week to start, then tapering.
Q: Is it safe?
Yes, when performed by a licensed practitioner. We use sterile, single-use needles that are disposed of after every treatment, and we screen every patient before the first session.
Q: When can I be seen?
Acupuncture appointments are Tuesday and Thursday, 4 to 7 PM at our Stuart office, 104 SE Lonita Street, by appointment.
Q: Where in Stuart is your acupuncture office?
Simpson Longevity House Stuart, 104 SE Lonita Street, Stuart, FL 34994. We are one block west of US-1 on Kanner Highway, next door to the Elks Lodge. Call (772) 463-2344 to book.
Q: Do all of your locations offer acupuncture?
No. Acupuncture is offered at the Stuart office only. Patients of our Port St. Lucie, Okeechobee and Indiantown offices book their acupuncture appointments into Stuart.
Q: Can I combine acupuncture with my chiropractic care?
Yes, and most patients do. Acupuncture pairs well with adjustments, decompression, massage therapy and stretching, and we plan them together.
