A New Start For a Better Health
The Art of Healing.
In our age of technological wonders, it's easy to forget that neither man nor woman has the power to cure disease. At best, all she or he can do is assist nature in the cure.
By spending quality time listening to my patients, I carefully diagnose the root imbalance, not just the symptoms, fostering deep healing of body, mind, and spirit. This thoughtful approach reduces risk and empowers nature’s innate ability to cure, guiding each patient toward better health.
The Science of Medicine.
Big pharma. Big medicine. Corrupt researchers. Big Insurance companies. The system is broken. There is no doubt. But let's not throw the proverbial baby out with the bathwater.
I like to joke that if the ancient Chinese had 9v batteries, they would have used them for acupuncture. I combine modern technology with ancient wisdom to offer the best of both worlds to my patients.
Payment Options.
Neglecting your health, such as skipping treatments like acupuncture because of the investment, can lead to a steep price later in deferred care.
Ignoring issues when they can still be healed allows them to escalate into chronic conditions, resulting in costly medical interventions, reduced quality of life, and lost time.

Medicare advantage plans cover acupuncture for low back pain.

Insurance can be confusing. We can help you verify your coverage.

About Me.
I knew early on that I wanted to become an acupuncturist and was one of the first practitioners in the United States to earn a Master's Degree in Acupuncture from the Traditional Acupuncture Institute in Columbia, Maryland.
Hello, my name is Mackay Rippey. I’ve been practicing acupuncture for more than 30 years. Most people are curious about acupuncture treatment, but don’t know where to turn to get their questions answered. I’d be happy to sit down with you and explain exactly how acupuncture works, how long it takes, how much it costs, if the needles hurt and any other questions you might have. Give me a call and we’ll set up a good time to talk.
Don't Delay.
A ship sprang a small leak, but the captain ignored it, thinking, "It’s fine for now." He sailed on, delaying repairs. The leak grew, water poured in, and soon the ship was sinking. Desperate, he tried to patch it, but it was too late. The sea swallowed the ship, teaching him: small problems ignored become disasters.
