About Us

We’re a bunch of feral children with acupuncture licenses. It seemed like a good idea at the time.

Victor's Story

I help people with nerve issues, oncology patients, and athletes by offering a comprehensive understanding and treatment of your illness that restores function to the whole body.

Hi, I’m Victor Manuel, Licensed Acupuncturist, bodyworker, and Doctor of Acupuncture and Oriental Medicine.

I had horrible allergies all through my adult years, until in 2013 some friends suggested I see their acupuncturist. I didn’t believe it at first, but decided it was worth a try. In a few short sessions, he began the process of curing my allergies, and I had to re-align my worldview. Acupuncture is real?!?

Literally on the fifth appointment, I decided I had to learn this medicine. I needed to understand what Chinese medicine was all about. I left the world of IT to become an acupuncturist in 2017, and never looked back. My work in supporting others and helping with complex IT problems allows me to bring acupuncture to Dallas with a calm, even-tempered style.

I received a Masters in 2020, and a Doctorate in 2024 from the Austin Oriental Medicine Academy. I’m a Certified Tuina Practitioner, and sit on the board of the American Organization for Bodywork Therapies of Asia. I’m licensed in both Dallas and Minnesota, and due to my legislative knowledge, I serve as the president of the Texas Association of Acupuncture and Oriental Medicine.

I specialize in holistic healing by going beyond temporary relief, treating diseases at their root cause – not just their symptoms – through the power of acupuncture. My focus on education and body awareness empowers patients to regain control over their health, ensuring a lasting, pain-free life.
