Accidentally discovered during the boozy revelry of a Chinese pin factory’s New Year's party, acupuncture has since developed into both a potent alternative medicine and popular celebrity Jeopardy! category. Today’s Groupon gives you a pain-free way to stay pain-free: for $29, you get a 60-minute acupuncture session including a preliminary consultation at Lokahi Acupuncture (a $125 value).

Lokahi Acupuncture’s qualified team of licensed acupuncturists help patients to get a handle on everything from chronic pain to athletic injuries using the ancient Chinese art of acupuncture. During each initial 60-minute visit, a friendly acupuncturist holds a 15-minute tête-à-tête with each client to determine the proper course of treatment and conduct a brief diagnosis by examining wrist pulses and tongues for any irregularities or telltale signs of popsicle dependence. Next, clients repair to a treatment room warmed with a soothing heat lamp as soft music puts minds at ease. The well-versed practitioner then treats 4-12 acupuncture points with sterile, single-use pins which, unlike a hospital’s hollow hypodermic needles or a porcupine’s quill pen, are solid, sharp, and nearly hair-thin, resulting in little to no discomfort.

Each member of the needle-wielding team boasts a vast catalogue of experience and specializes in one or more particular areas such as women’s health, pain management, digestive disorders, and fertility. The acupuncture experts work tirelessly to foster an inviting atmosphere that prioritizes client comfort and whole-body wellness.
