Welcome

Thank you for visiting my site. My name is Chuck Sullivan. I am an acupuncturist working in East Memphis. Our location is just inside the loop on the corner of Poplar and Yates.

Acupuncture is a safe effective complimentary practice that enhances the care you receive from your MD, PT, Chiropractor, etc. My goal for your care is to offer professional alternative medicine in a comfortable nurturing environment. Acupuncture is a holistic form of medicine that takes into account your past medical history, diet, lifestyle habits, mind, body and spirit. I am particularly effective in treating neck and back pain, head aches, women's issues, and sports injuries. Your sessions last one hour and could include acupuncture, acupressure, herbal therapy, nutritional advice and qigong instruction.


If you are tired of being rushed in and out of the office or only spending a few minutes with your provider, then my treatment room is for you. I strive to offer personalized comprehensive (acupuncture, herbs, acupressure)alternative treatment that is simply not offered anywhere else in Memphis. Call today to talk to one of our friendly staff members to start your journey to wellness. My office number is 901.763.0909. Remember to ask for Chuck Sullivan.
