New Clients Welcome!

My name is Abigail Ballaban, and I am happy to bring acupuncture and Traditional Chinese Medicine to Portland, Oregon. I am Nationally Board Certified by the NCCAOM as a Diplomate of Oriental Medicine to practice Acupuncture and Chinese Herbs. I am the Licensed Acupuncturist and the owner of ASK Acupuncture. In addition to serving as a general practitioner in acupuncture, my specialties are:

Needle-free services are available in my clinic for facials, acupressure, shiatsu, quantum shiatsu, pediatric acupressure, moxibustion, or cupping.

I am a Board Certified Chinese medicinal herbalist providing Chinese formulas of the highest quality for various health conditions.

Some of the needle-free services, such as acupressure and Qi Gong, are available via telemedicine during the pandemic for your comfort and convenience.

I strive to create a healing and calm space for everyone who walks into my clinic — I want you to feel better and to become empowered in your health and well-being. I regularly coordinate care with your primary care physician, pediatrician, or other medical providers as needed. Acupuncture points stimulate the central nervous system. This, in turn, releases chemicals into the muscles, spinal cord, and brain. These biochemical changes then stimulate the body’s natural healing abilities and promote physical and emotional well-being.

I pride myself on offering my patients a path towards a more balanced lifestyle through the practice of Chinese medicine.
