Medical Acupuncture

What Medical Acupuncture does

Medical Acupuncture is an independent integrative medical practice operating two clinics in Central Florida (Orange City and Lake Mary, the latter relocating to Pado Wellness Center effective July 1, 2025), founded in 2013 with roots traceable to Dr. MengLan Chen's Florida acupuncture licensure in 2004. The practice combines Traditional Chinese Medicine with modern biomedical approaches, delivering acupuncture-based protocols across pain management, fertility and reproductive health, cancer care support, weight management, and cosmetic rejuvenation, supplemented by nutrient IV/IM therapies, platelet-rich plasma (PRP) injections, Chinese herbal medicine dispensed via Fullscript, and physician-supervised compounding protocols through Olympia Pharmacy. Treatment is delivered by three credentialed practitioners: Medical Director Dr. Rolando Branly (MD), Dr. MengLan Chen (MD, DAcHM, AP, Mayo Clinic-trained health coach), and Dr. Yun-Chiao Lee (MSOM, AP, 40 years of clinical experience and 35,000+ patients treated).

The service portfolio is organized as discrete per-session billings ($50–$499 depending on modality), bundled course packages (e.g., 6–10 session cosmetic or IVF/IUI courses), and tiered monthly maintenance subscriptions (Basic/Silver/Gold with 6-month minimum commitments). Pricing is supplemented by compounding pharmacy kits (Olympia Weight Management), proprietary branded protocols (Slimergy Shot, PainEase Fusion), gift cards via Square, and Superbills for out-of-network insurance reimbursement (in-network only with UHC; not Medicare-participating). Telehealth consultations are delivered via Doxy.me, including a complementary initial virtual visit to lower acquisition friction.

The go-to-market motion is direct-to-consumer, relying on the practice's website, phone/text outreach, and community education to drive patient acquisition in the Southeast US. The business is privately held, owner-operated, with no disclosed external funding, parent company, or institutional investors, and operates from a single Florida market with no stated geographic expansion plans beyond current footprint.

Direct peers

• WTHN: Modern acupuncture and Chinese medicine brand operating clinics in NYC with a curated menu of acupuncture, cupping, and herbal protocols. Comparable to Medical Acupuncture in combining TCM heritage with a contemporary wellness brand, packaged treatment offerings, and fertility/stress specialties.
• YinOva Center: New York City-based integrative acupuncture and Traditional Chinese Medicine practice offering fertility, pregnancy, pain, and women's health services with a comparable blend of acupuncture, herbal medicine, and bodywork under licensed practitioners. Closest direct analog to Medical Acupuncture's clinical scope and patient segments.
• Integrative Acupuncture NYC: NYC-based licensed acupuncture practice offering pain, fertility, and cosmetic acupuncture alongside herbal medicine and cupping. Comparable service mix and clinical positioning to Medical Acupuncture, though operating in a different metro.
• Pulling Down the Moon Integrative Health: Chicago-based integrative care center combining acupuncture, herbal medicine, nutrition, and mind-body therapies with a strong fertility and reproductive health focus. Closely comparable to Medical Acupuncture's fertility/IVF support niche and TCM-integrative model.

Broad incumbents

• Cleveland Clinic Integrative & Lifestyle Medicine: Hospital-system-affiliated integrative medicine program offering acupuncture, mind-body medicine, and lifestyle counseling within a major academic medical center. Represents the physician-led integrative benchmark against which Medical Acupuncture positions its MD-supervised model.
• Restore Hyper Wellness: National franchise of wellness clinics offering IV therapy, cryotherapy, infrared sauna, and injection services across 200+ locations. Overlaps with Medical Acupuncture's IV/IM nutrient therapy, B12 shots, and Slimergy fat-burning injection offerings.
• Modern Acupuncture: Multi-state franchise operating standardized acupuncture clinics across the U.S. with consistent pricing and protocols. Comparable as a scaled acupuncture delivery model, but operates as a broader incumbent rather than a niche integrative medical practice.
• Mayo Clinic Integrative Medicine & Health: Academic medical center's integrative medicine program delivering acupuncture, massage, and wellness services under physician oversight. Functions as a broad incumbent reference point given that Medical Acupuncture's Dr. Chen is Mayo Clinic trained in health coaching.
• Remedy Place: Members-only social wellness club offering IV drip therapy, cryotherapy, acupuncture, and recovery services. Comparable overlap with Medical Acupuncture's IV/IM therapy and acupuncture offerings, though positioned as a broader urban wellness brand.

Emerging players

• Ora Acupuncture & Herbal Medicine: Specialty acupuncture and herbal medicine clinic focused on women's health, fertility, and pain management with a similar integrative positioning. Directly comparable to Medical Acupuncture's fertility and women's health segments, though smaller in scale.
