Services
Acupuncture
Acupuncture uses sterile stainless steel needles placed along meridian pathways to restore balance and promote healing. This traditional practice addresses pain, inflammation, and systemic imbalances by improving circulation and neurological regulation. Patients often experience immediate relief and improved energy flow following sessions.
Herbology
Custom herbal formulations from over 300 plant-based ingredients target specific health concerns. Our practitioners create personalized blends to address both acute symptoms and chronic conditions, using high-quality, pesticide-free herbs that complement other treatment modalities for enhanced therapeutic effects.
Tuina
Tuina combines acupressure and stretching techniques to improve circulation and relieve musculoskeletal tension. This 2,000-year-old therapy works through clothing and can be adapted for gentle relaxation or deep-tissue treatment, making it ideal for patients preferring non-needle therapies.
Cupping and Guasha
Cupping creates suction to release muscle tension while Guasha uses scraping techniques to improve circulation. These complementary therapies accelerate healing by removing stagnation and toxins, often providing immediate pain relief and improved range of motion during acupuncture sessions.
Essential Oil Therapy
Custom essential oil blends target specific meridians for emotional and physical healing. Applied directly to acupressure points, these plant-based extracts offer home self-care options that complement in-clinic treatments, particularly for patients with sensitivities to oral supplements.

Report
I had never tried acupuncture, but after meeting Kevin and talking with him, thought I should give it a try. Being in middle age, aches and pains are becoming a daily occurrence. Kevin has improved my shoulder and neck pain which makes golf more enjoyable. I sent my daughter to him to work on some of her issues which is the highest recommendation I can give. Great knowledge and very empathetic!

As a fitness instructor I always seem to have aches and pains. I had never tried acupuncture for relief. Kevin is able to pinpoint my issues and apply his knowledge of acupuncture and herbs that is not only immediately helpful but the treatments continue to work long after my sessions. I can with 100% recommend Kevin Laux!

I went to Kevin in desperate need of help and hope. He gave me both! He was professional, polite and knowledgeable in his skills. His acupuncture treatments helped me when other things I had tried hadnt, relieving me of my daily pain and fatigue. The herbs he provides to support the treatments was something I looked forward to enjoying every day. I highly recommend acupuncture and this acupuncturist

I've been seeing and working with Kevin Laux, L.Ac for 10 years now. He has a full practice in Austin, of which I'm delighted that he still comes back monthly to serve. As he is building out his practice again in his new home in TN, you are lucky enough to find an experienced practitioner you can still get into see. He is highly skilled, personalizes his work to your needs, and is always willing to explore the unknown for your ultimate benefit. His knowledge of herbs and essential oils keep the benefits of his hands on practice moving along until he sees you again. Unlike most acupuncturists, Kevin

Kevin is a master at his craft in that he sees past the symptoms and into the heart of dis-ease. I say heart, because he always has a way of bringing me closer to myself and empowering me in my healing process. Kevin has treated me for almost a decade, in many cases exclusively for health issues that I had previously struggled to maintain, making my visit to the PCP a rare occurrence. If you want to be well, instead of just better, GO SEE KEVIN.
