Electroacupuncture (e-stim)
Electroacupuncture involves passing a low-frequency electrical current through traditional acupuncture needles. It may help relieve pain and other symptoms.
Electroacupuncture is like traditional acupuncture, but with a modern twist. It uses electricity on certain acupuncture points to provide consistent stimulation and increase blood flow to certain areas, based on the treatment. The stimulation helps the body activate endogenous opioids, like endorphins, and can activate the sympathetic nervous system. This gentle, yet powerful approach can be a great option for pain relief, stress regulation, digestive issues, and even fertility treatments.
What other patients say:
"10/10 go see Jackie!"
I started going to her when I was in tremendous pain from a concussion I had received. Western medication methods were actually making me worse and I was at a complete loss, suffering with awful constant migraines. Then I found Jackie's practice online. I am still shocked by how much she has helped me recover.

“Jacqueline was very welcoming and thorough.”
She showed great concern for my comfort and explained the process. This was my first session and I already feel improvement in my symptoms.

"Dr Lacava is a superb acupuncturist."
I went to see her as a result of severe insomnia, and after only 2-3 sessions I was sleeping soundly. My sleep these days is some of the best I've ever had in my life! Highly recommended.
