California Acupuncture Board–licensed practitioners with board certification in both Acupuncture and Chinese Herbal Medicine staff Acusport Health Center, founded in 2000 on Cable Street and built into a Sports Medicine Acupuncture destination treating NFL athletes from the Chargers, Cardinals, and Vikings alongside Olympic competitors and local weekend warriors. The clinic's orthopedic rehabilitation protocol combines acupuncture, cupping, Chinese herbal formulations, and Tui Na bodywork with western biomechanical assessment, a musculoskeletal approach that shares referral flow with the spinal and joint care offered by Laura J. Hershey, DC for integrated pain protocols. Practitioner specialties span women's health, fertility support, NAET allergy elimination, pediatric acupuncture, and vibrational healing with tuning forks, with cupping therapy available at $40 per session and cosmetic acupuncture offered for collagen stimulation. Sports-focused soft tissue work from in-house massage therapists trained in Deep Tissue, Shiatsu, and Traditional Thai bodywork supports active recovery between acupuncture sessions, and post-competition athletes extend recovery through sessions at San Diego Sports Massage on the same corridor. The practice welcomes both pediatric and adult patients and is an Ocean Beach Main Street Association member supporting the Newport Avenue small-business corridor. The clinic's most involved protocol is the Motor Point and Meridian–guided Sports Medicine Acupuncture treatment series — the same framework taught worldwide through the Sports Medicine Acupuncture Certification Program developed on-site — used for complex musculoskeletal cases like shoulder impingement, tibial stress syndromes, and sports-related muscle tension headaches.
