Compass Point Acupuncture
Compass Point Acupuncture, comprised of Autumn Goodrich and Megan Anderson, promote optimal wellness by providing patients with high quality health care through acupuncture, herbs, nutritional consulting, and Asian medical massage. Compass Point Acupuncture accepts insurance and is a preferred provider for Allegiance, Cigna, Pacific Source, Interwest, and Blue Cross Blue Shield.

Our clinic is centrally located near 19th and Durston in Bozeman, MT, offering easy access from all directions. Acupuncture is the insertion of very fine needles into designated points on the body. Each point possesses specific functions and has the ability to improve health and balance the system. Traditional Chinese Medicine theory establishes that there is energy, often referred to as Qi ("chee"), flowing through channels within the body.

These channels connect the body as a whole including all of our major organs. Acupuncture can reestablish balance by improving the flow of blood and energy by enhancing circulation to systems that are depleted or by directing it away from areas of excess.

Autumn grew up in the Colorado Rockies and has always felt a calling to work in the medical field, helping people.
She obtained her Bachelor's in Psychology at Colorado College in 2004.
Although Autumn is a skeptic at heart, she came to love acupuncture and massage for its clinical effectiveness and personalized approach to treatments.
She started her path to bodywork at The Mountain Heart School of Bodywork in Crested Butte, CO in 2006 and around that same time fell in love with acupuncture.
Autumn received her Master's degree in Acupuncture and Oriental medicine M.Ac.
A Chinese medical diagnosis is based upon a thorough consultation and examination.
For your first visit, please plan on being in the office for about 75 minutes.
We will talk at length about your reasons for coming in, and will go through a full health history.
It is important for us to discuss all aspects of your health even though they may not seem directly related to your current issues.
Chinese medicine considers the whole body and can often draw correlation when it doesn't seem obvious.
A variety of diagnostic tools may be used, including: pulse taking, observation of the tongue, physical examination, and palpation of the arms, legs and abdomen.
Chinese medicine and acupuncture are based on the principle that a smooth flow of energy, or Qi through the body is the key to maintaining health and balance.
When this flow becomes blocked, the supply of Qi and blood restricts; thus failing to nourish the cells, tissues and organs.
Qi blockage can result from a range of causes, from emotional stress to acute physical injury.
Recent studies have shown acupuncture promotes circulation, reduces inflammation to eliminate pain, improves metabolism and restores proper functioning of all body systems.
I have been to Autumn many times and if I had more time in my busy schedule I would go every week!
She has helped me immensely with stress and physical ailments.
I highly recommend her services!
Autumn is a healer in every sense of the word.
She takes the time to get to know you and really listens so that she can offer the best solutions and care for each unique individual.
I came to Compass Point a hot mess and brand new to acupuncture.
I gave to Autumn a laundry list of things that were ailing me: old injuries, muscle aches, tennis elbow, stress and insomnia.
