Our Practice

Acupuncture for Balanced Wellness has been providing acupuncture and holistic healthcare in the Chicago Loop since 2008. From the beginning, our philosophy has been simple: health is about balance, and every person deserves care that considers the whole individual - not just a symptom or diagnosis.

Our practice was founded by Angie Ng, L.Ac., after her own experience with acupuncture inspired her to leave a corporate career and pursue Traditional Chinese Medicine. Growing up in a traditional Chinese household, Angie was already familiar with the use of food and herbs to support health. Years later, experiencing the benefits of acupuncture firsthand deepened her belief in the body's capacity to heal and ultimately changed the direction of her life.

Today, Acupuncture for Balanced Wellness brings together experienced, licensed and board-certified acupuncturists who share a commitment to thoughtful, individualized care. Over the years, we have helped thousands of patients with concerns ranging from back and neck pain, headaches and migraines, and sports injuries to fertility and women's health, stress and anxiety, digestive concerns, hormonal imbalances, and chronic inflammatory conditions.

We value the thousands of years of knowledge behind acupuncture and Chinese medicine while recognizing that today's patients benefit from a broader understanding of health.

Depending on your individual needs, care may incorporate acupuncture alongside techniques such as electroacupuncture, cupping, bodywork, herbal supplements, nutritional guidance, and lifestyle recommendations. Our growing Functional Medicine services further expand this whole-person approach, particularly in areas such as metabolic and digestive health.

Rather than applying the same treatment to everyone with the same complaint, we take time to understand your health history, symptoms, lifestyle, and goals. Treatment plans are then tailored to the individual and may evolve as your health changes.

We believe excellent acupuncture shouldn't have to feel like a luxury.

Despite the experience of our practitioners and the individualized attention we provide, we have always worked to keep our services reasonably priced. We offer affordable self-pay options and work with many major insurance plans when a patient's policy includes acupuncture benefits. Our office can also submit eligible acupuncture claims directly, helping make the process easier for our patients.

We don’t just provide acupuncture treatments. We also create a place where patients feel heard, cared for, and empowered to take an active role in their health - with experienced practitioners they can trust and a thoughtful approach that supports lasting wellness.
