Who We Partner With

Good Fit

  • Pain clinics
  • Primary care practices
  • Medicare-focused practices
  • Multi-location physician groups

These organizations have established referral workflows, clinical infrastructure, and a patient population that benefits from integrated acupuncture services.

Not Ideal

  • One-time vendors
  • Practices with no referral process
  • Organizations with no care coordination

We focus exclusively on clinical partnerships within established healthcare environments. Consumer-facing wellness businesses fall outside our operational model.
