I have been seeing Dr. Catherine weekly for several months to treat back and knee pain associated with my lack of mobility after surgery. Her office is a lovely, relaxing space where I feel a calm, peaceful energy as soon as I walk in the door and feel an improvement after each visit. She really does know how to heal your body, mind and spirit.

I visited Dr. Catherine to address my lower back pain. At the start of the appointment when I walked in, I almost was unable to extend my back fully without pain. One hour later at the end I was amazed with the result, because I was completely relieved and was able to move freely. Second time I came back for the shoulder and saw the immediate effect and relief as well.

Dr. Catherine Price is phenomenal. She was especially helpful with helping me manage stress/grief/anxiety as well as neck, shoulder, and back pain. I have never felt better than I have after a session with Catherine. I highly recommend you schedule a visit with her.

I saw Dr. Catherine for a flare of my chronic back pain. As a primary care doctor, I have sent patients to her for years with rave reviews, so knew I was in good hands. The acupuncture was serene and centering, and helped my back pain tremendously the following day. This little office is a gem in Newport and I will continue to recommend her repeatedly and can't wait to return for another session.

There are few professionals I feel are brilliant enough for patient and family member referrals. Dr. Catherine is the first name I discuss when sending anyone for acupuncture.

How Acupuncture Helps with Back Pain

Acupuncture is a traditional therapy rooted in the concept of energetics within the body. It involves the insertion of needles into specific points on the body, which are not intended to cause pain, harm, or discomfort.

Acupuncturist's targets specific energy points, known as "qi" in Chinese medicine, or meridians, during treatment. Some of these meridians are particularly beneficial for addressing painful nerves and muscles in the back.

Stimulating these points not only targets pain relief but also engages parts of the nervous system.
