Acupuncture Libertyville – Natural Relief Backed by Experience
If you’re looking for a natural, effective way to relieve pain, reduce stress, and restore balance, acupuncture may be the perfect complement to your chiropractic care.
At Affordable Libertyville Chiropractors, Dr. Steve Segal integrates acupuncture into treatment plans for patients seeking gentle, affordable, and evidence-based healing options.
What Is Acupuncture?
Acupuncture is a centuries-old healing practice rooted in Traditional Chinese Medicine. It involves inserting very fine, sterile needles into specific points on the body to improve energy flow, stimulate nerves and muscles, and promote the body’s natural healing response.
Modern research confirms that acupuncture can help reduce inflammation, release endorphins, and calm overactive pain pathways in the nervous system. According to the National Center for Complementary and Integrative Health, studies show that acupuncture may help relieve chronic pain, tension headaches, and musculoskeletal discomfort.
Conditions Acupuncture Can Help
At our Libertyville clinic, Dr. Segal uses acupuncture to support patients dealing with:
Back and neck pain
Sciatica and nerve irritation
Joint and muscle tension
Headaches and migraines
Arthritis and inflammation
Stress, anxiety, and sleep issues
Menstrual discomfort or hormonal imbalance
Acupuncture can be used alone or alongside chiropractic adjustments, soft tissue therapy, and nutrition for a comprehensive, whole-body approach to healing.
Dr. Segal’s Approach to Acupuncture
Dr. Segal completed semesters of acupuncture in school. Then he took an additional 100 hour coursre from Dr. Jon Sunderlage. Dr. Segal incorporates acupuncture when he feels it’s a piece of your health care relief and solution plan. He has incorporated it into patient care for decades, he just hasn’t spoken about it.. His approach is gentle and individualized—every treatment is tailored to your comfort level and specific condition.
Acupuncture sessions are available as part of your chiropractic care plan or as a standalone service.
Typical sessions last about 20–30 minutes and cost around $50 per visit for uninsured patients. Blue Cross Blue Shield PPO may cover acupuncture for certain conditions—just ask when scheduling.

How many acupuncture sessions will I need?
That depends on your condition and health goals. Some patients notice improvement after one visit; others need several sessions for lasting results. Dr. Segal will discuss a plan that fits your needs—without long contracts or unnecessary visits.
