Welcome

Welcome to Heavenly Stems Acupuncture! Melissa Margolis L.Ac. MSTCM is a licensed acupuncturist practicing since 2005. We offer an array of services including acupuncture, cupping, and herbal formulas.

Reopening January 2025.
New address!

2241 Central Ave. Suite H
Alameda, CA 94501

We are a Covid-safer business!

Masks (N95, KN95, KF94) required for all patients. Melissa wears an N95 mask at all times. The office is equipped with a medical grade HEPA filter. Focus is on creating a safer space for immune-compromised and at-risk patients, and for those who consider themselves Covid-cautious. Melissa is fully vaccinated and boosted.

In our initial reopening, we will only be able to accept insurance as an out-of-network provider, but this may change.

Thank you Alameda for your support all these years, since 2008! We love you!
