    Acupuncture Across the Hawaiian Islands

    Acupuncture is a foundational practice of Traditional Chinese Medicine, developed over thousands of years on the principle that the body's vital energy — qi — flows through a network of pathways called meridians. When that flow is obstructed or imbalanced, illness and discomfort follow. By inserting fine needles at specific points along those pathways, a practitioner works to restore circulation, ease tension, and support the body's innate capacity to heal. Across the Hawaiian Islands, acupuncture has taken firm root — practiced alongside lomilomi, naturopathic care, and other healing traditions that share the broader goal of treating the whole person rather than isolated symptoms.

    Practitioners are spread across all four major Hawaiian islands, with concentrations in Honolulu and Kailua on Oʻahu, Kihei and Paia on Maui, Kailua-Kona and Hilo on the Big Island, and Kāpaʻa and Līhuʻe on Kauaʻi. Sessions typically run 45 to 75 minutes. You'll lie on a treatment table, often with a brief intake to discuss current symptoms, lifestyle, and health history before needles are placed — usually retained for 20 to 40 minutes while you rest. Many people find the experience surprisingly comfortable, often deeply relaxing in a way that extends well past the session itself.

    When choosing a practitioner, look for a licensed acupuncturist (L.Ac.) with state licensure or board certification from the NCCAOM. Some practitioners work within integrative clinics alongside naturopathic physicians or massage therapists; others maintain private solo practices. If you have a specific condition — chronic pain, fertility support, stress regulation — it's worth scanning practitioner bios to find someone with focused experience in that area. Acupuncture on the Big Island and acupuncture on Maui both have active practitioner communities worth browsing. For related care, explore TCM practitioners across Hawaiʻi.

    AcupunctureTCM (Traditional Chinese Medicine)

    My goal is to get you on the least amount of supplements and medications necessary. Traditional Chinese Medicine (TCM) uses dietary and lifestyle changes along with Acupuncture and Herbs to bring you to an optimum state of health. TCM changed my life. I was the person that got sick when a bug first circulated the community and then again after everyone else had it. I was always sick, but that changed once I treated myself to regular acupuncture treatments. I received a course of facial rejuvenation acupuncture (ten treatments once a week), which also works on improving your overall health. Once the course was completed, not only did I look younger and fresher, I rarely ever got sick again. (And the effects have lasted years.) Acupuncture is a very important part of my health routine!

    AcupunctureHerbalism

    Olivia Liu is a Licensed Acupuncturist both in Hawaii and California, which currently holds the highest standards for Acupuncture and Oriental Medicine licensure. She graduated from Five Branches University in Santa Cruz, California after completing four years of study in Acupuncture, Herbal Medicine, Dietetics, and Western Medicine. There she specialized in Women's Health, taking specialty classes and clinics in Gynecology and Fertility. She also specialized in Five Element Acupuncture, which was a unique program that required separate clinical studies. In Santa Cruz she also began her interest in Kiiko Style Acupuncture, studying and interning with several Kiiko's students. Olivia's graduate studies in Oriental Medicine were an extension of and complementary to her studies as an undergraduate at the University of California, Berkeley where she earned a B.A. in Cognitive Science with a specialization in Cognitive Psychology as well as a minor in Business Administration. She took a Buddhist Psychology class taught by Dr Eleanor Rosch, which revolutionized her whole perspective on the mind and emotions and led her down a path of finding ways to integrate Eastern and Western science and philosophy. At UC Berkeley she also facilitated a Women's Studies class that helped women explore issues relating to women's health, body image and portrayal of women in the media, women's rights, sexism, violence against women, and issues related to sexuality. After several years of turning her efforts to environmental and social activism in an effort to effect change to issues ranging from stopping global warming, protecting old growth forests and endangered species, to putting an end to unnecessary suffering from war and genocide, she decided that she needed to work on a more personally transformative level with people on an individual basis. That is when Olivia decided that Oriental Medicine was the perfect way to integrate East and West and to bring the healing and transformation to the world that was her calling. During her schooling at Five Branches University, Olivia felt compelled to go beyond the curriculum available at school especially in the area of Qi Gong. Although Qi Gong was offered at the school, her passion and dedication to learning the true depth of this practice led her to study with Dr Bingkun Hu both in Santa Cruz and in Berkeley. She has continued to study with Dr Hu for over six years as one of his close students and a Certified Teacher of Wild Goose Qi Gong. Her interest in Qi Gong also led her to Beijing to study with one of Dr Hu's teachers, Master Duan Zhi Liang an expert in acupuncture, herbs, and qigong "qi" healing who was born into a well respected medically-oriented family in the Forbidden City and learned directly from his grandfather, a personal physician to the last Chinese Emperor. After receiving her Masters of Traditional Chinese Medicine, she moved to Maui to start her practice. For two years she ran a successful practice in Haiku and Wailea and also taught Qi Gong at the Studio Maui as well as holding her own workshops. After two years, she felt the desire to deepen and expand her knowledge further and decided to take an opportunity to study in Taiwan at the Taipei City Hospital of Traditional Chinese Medicine.
