A note on North Thompson Lane construction
The Tennessee Department of Transportation began a widening project on North Thompson Lane in August 2026, covering the 4.3-mile stretch from Northwest Broad Street to Memorial Boulevard, which includes our block (TDOT). The work is scheduled to continue into 2030. Daytime lane closures are permitted between 8:30 am and 2:30 pm on school days, so if you have a mid-day appointment, allow a few extra minutes. The clinic remains open and accessible throughout.

Questions
Common questions about the Murfreesboro clinic
Do I need a referral to see an acupuncturist in Tennessee?
No. Acupuncturists are licensed independently in Tennessee and you may schedule directly.
Is acupuncture the same as dry needling?
They are not the same, and Tennessee sets different training and licensing requirements for each. We explain the difference in dry needling vs. acupuncture in Tennessee.
Do you take insurance?
Our Murfreesboro clinic accepts Veterans Affairs Community Care. Blue Cross Blue Shield of Tennessee and UnitedHealthcare are accepted at our Brentwood clinic only. We offer complimentary insurance verification before your first visit, and insurance does not cover add-on services. See our financial policies or our guide to acupuncture insurance coverage in Tennessee.
Will the road construction affect my visit?
The clinic remains open and accessible. If your appointment falls between 8:30 am and 2:30 pm on a school day, allow a few extra minutes.
How far in advance should I book?
Booking at least 24 hours ahead is best. If you need something sooner, call the clinic and our clinical concierge team will check same-day availability.
