Primary Care Acupuncture Center

About Me

Hello!  I am Denise Rusnak, MSOM, L.Ac., an NCCAOM Board Certified Acupuncturist, licensed by the State of South Carolina.  I have been helping my patients "Feel Better With Acupuncture Today" since 2007.

My Credentials include:

~Bachelors in Professional Studies from New York College of Health Professions' Graduate School of Oriental Medicine - 2008

~Masters in Science and Oriental Medicine (Acupuncture & Chinese Herbology) from New York College of Health Professions' Graduate School of Oriental Medicine - 2008

~NCCAOM Board Certification in Acupuncture (Dipl. Ac.)

I specialize in Japanese acupuncture, TCM Gynecology / Infertility, Pain & Stress Management through Acupuncture and ancillary techniques such as moxibustion, gua sha, shoni shin and cupping.

I am also the proud owner of Anderson Holistic Health.  Here you can experience many different healing modalities to help you reach and maintain your optimal health.

I feel that the true healing power and unique wisdom of Chinese medicine lies in its ability to treat any issue that arises in the physical or emotional body in order to create balance and healing in any patient.  This genuine holistic practice can create a path towards true wellness and health by piecing together the parts that are so often separated by Western medicine alone.

I strongly believe that your healing comes through deep nourishment of the spirit and by alleviating not only the suffering of the body but also the heart.  I have a deep respect for the relationship between patient and practitioner and how when there is full trust, understanding and communication, true healing can take place.

I believe…

~an ounce of prevention is worth a pound of cure.

~that healing should be accessible and achievable for all people, and that by better understanding our bodies, we can empower ourselves to take charge of our own health.

~you should leave my office feeling better than when you walked in.

~you know your body better than anyone else ever will. As your acupuncturist I want you to feel empowered to take care of your own health, understand the process of healing and all the available paths to wellness.

~in medicine that looks at you as a whole person and not a collection of separate symptoms and that everything is connected.

~your happiness, fulfillment, and ability to feel relaxed and at-home in your body are vitally important and inseparable from your physical health. Mental and emotional health are intricately linked with physical symptoms.

~in medicine that addresses root causes and not only symptoms. By treating the root cause, you will achieve lasting results and not be dependent on someone else for your health.

~drug-free health! While some prescription medications are life-saving and necessary, many only treat symptoms and carry risks and side effects that can be avoided with a functional approach.

~we have immense power to self-heal, and that the current healthcare system often doesn’t support taking an active role in our own care. I encourage questions and critical thinking.

If you want to feel your absolute best, I can help. As you probably know, countless studies have found a direct link between your health and your overall confidence and happiness.

But instead of using a "one size fits all" approach to treatment, I design a unique plan that is custom-tailored to fit your exact goals and needs.
