Acupuncture Gladstone

Natural, Drug-Free Relief

Your body is designed to heal itself, but chronic pain, stress, and injury can keep it stuck in a cycle of tension and inflammation that never seems to let up. Acupuncture is a time-tested therapy that uses ultra-fine, sterile needles at specific points on the body to calm pain signals, release tight muscles, and support your body’s natural healing response. At Wagner Chiropractic, Dr. Drew Wagner offers acupuncture in Gladstone, Missouri, as part of a whole-body approach that addresses the root cause of your pain, not just the symptoms. When you’re ready to stop managing your pain and start living your best life naturally, schedule your acupuncture in Gladstone with Wagner. Call 816-287-9099 to get started.

How Does Acupuncture Benefit You?

Acupuncture works by stimulating specific points on the body to help your nervous system, muscles, and circulation work the way they should. Research suggests it can be an effective, drug-free option for chronic back pain, neck pain, and headaches. Our acupuncture in Gladstone offers benefits that reach well beyond the treatment table:

Natural, Drug-Free Pain Relief: Acupuncture may help calm overactive pain signals and encourage the release of endorphins, your body’s own pain relievers, so you can rely less on medication.

Releases Muscle Tension and Trigger Points: Targeted needle placement helps tight, overworked muscles let go, easing the stiffness that keeps pain coming back.

Improves Circulation and Healing: Increased blood flow brings oxygen and nutrients to injured or strained tissues, supporting your body’s natural repair process.

Reduces Stress and Improves Sleep: Many patients leave their session feeling calm and relaxed. A balanced nervous system is better equipped to manage stress, which often makes pain worse.

Enhances Your Chiropractic Results: Adjustments restore alignment and motion to your spine and joints, while acupuncture works on the surrounding muscles and soft tissue. Together, they address your pain from more than one direction.

Acupuncture Gladstone FAQs

Does acupuncture hurt?

Most patients feel little to no pain. Acupuncture needles are much thinner than the needles used for shots or blood draws, and most people feel only a light tap or a mild, dull ache at the point. Many patients find the session so relaxing they fall asleep.

How many acupuncture sessions will I need?

It depends on your condition and how long you’ve had it. Some patients notice a difference after the first few visits, while long-standing pain usually takes a series of treatments. Dr. Drew will give you a clear plan before you start.

How long does an acupuncture session take?

An acupuncture session at Wagner Chiropractic lasts 15 to 30 minutes, with the needles in place while you rest comfortably. Acupuncture is by appointment only, so call 816-287-9099 or book online to schedule.

What type of acupuncture does Dr. Drew practice?

Dr. Drew Wagner practices Traditional Chinese Medicine (TCM) acupuncture, which places fine needles at specific points along the body to restore balance and relieve pain. He also offers dry needling, which targets tight muscle trigger points directly.

Can I get acupuncture and a chiropractic adjustment in the same visit?

Yes. You can receive acupuncture and a chiropractic adjustment in the same visit, so you get both treatments in one trip. Just let us know when you book your acupuncture appointment.

Is acupuncture safe?

When performed by a trained, certified provider using sterile, single-use needles, acupuncture is considered very safe. Let Dr. Drew know if you’re pregnant, take blood thinners, or have a pacemaker.
