WE MAKE ACUPUNCTURE SIMPLE, GENTLE, AND AFFORDABLE FOR YOU

Acupuncture & Mindfulness for Nervous System Support

Each session with Dr. Bemis includes a full acupuncture treatment tailored to your physical and emotional needs. You'll also learn simple, trauma-informed tools—like optimizing your breathing, movement, and mindfulness—that you can integrate into your daily life to calm the nervous system and build resilience.

Resilience Coaching to Rebuild Inner Strength

Dr. Bemis blends trauma-informed conversation with grounding practices like acupuncture, meditation, and breathwork. Together, you’ll uncover the patterns that hold you back and build a toolkit of strategies to help you navigate life’s challenges with more clarity, calm, and confidence.

Somatic Therapy & TRE for Trauma Release

Dr. Bemis gently sreconnect you with your body’s natural ability to release stress, tension, and trauma. Using Trauma & Tension Release Exercises (TRE), Dr. Bemis guides you through simple, accessible movements that help unwind deep nervous system patterns—supporting groundedness, calm, and emotional clarity.

After an absolute horror story involving western medicine, I truly lost myself and was thrown into a world of pain. I felt like a new person after the first appointment. Dr Ryan Bemis has been a huge factor on helping me get my life back.

“Yoga, meditation, and acupuncture have been some of the most powerful tools in my own healing—and in supporting others in our community. In a world of trauma, injustice, and disconnection, we’re all searching for freedom. We don’t have to do it alone. These tools help us build resilience—especially in these dark times and out of greatest struggles.”

the acu nap experience

Most common side effect: feeling of deep calm

  • Our sessions at our Las Cruces clinic include what we lovingly call an “Acu-Nap”—a deep rest that happens during acupuncture.

  • You’ll relax in a safe, quiet space with gentle needle placement that helps down-regulate your nervous system.

  • People often describe it as peaceful, grounding, and surprisingly rejuvenating.

  • Whether you’re dealing with pain, anxiety, or emotional overwhelm, this is a moment to just be—and let your body do what it knows how to do: heal.

Trigger Point Acupuncture: A Patient's Story

Trust me: if you’re going to do dry needling/Trigger Point Therapy, you’re MUCH better off with an experienced practitioner with a strong grounding in traditional Chinese acupuncture and a good needling technique, like Ryan at Crossroads.
