Welcome to A Way of Life Acupuncture. 

Celebrating 20 years serving the Jacksonville Community. 


Healing begins here. 
Most of our patients come to us after trying everything else. Maybe it is back pain that keeps coming back, migraines that take over your weekends, stress of life that keep you up at night, or side effects from cancer treatment. 
At A Way of Life Acupuncture, we believe exceptional care begins with listening. We take the time to understand what is really going on, then build a treatment plan around you.  

Founded in 2006 by Christine Yastrzemski, our Jacksonville practice combines more than 40 years of combined clinical experience. Our Acupuncture doctors blend the wisdom of Eastern medicine with evidence-informed care to treat the whole person, not just the symptoms.
