Services
Treatments begin with an intake interview conducted by the acupuncturist. Health history, symptoms, observation of the patient and assessment of the pulse and abdomen are part of this comprehensive intake. Based on this information, a diagnosis is chosen as a well as acupuncture points for treatment.
In addition to helping adults, we also treat infants, children and teenagers. Our infants and children patients are treated with a non-insertive style of acupuncture. Teenagers are treated with a gentle Japanese style of acupuncture. Typically the children we treat have GI and stomach problems, respiratory and allergy concerns.
Some insurances have started to cover acupuncture treatments. We encourage you to call your health insurance company to find out what is needed for you to receive reimbursement by your insurance for your acupuncture treatments. We will provide you with the receipt and information required. Currently, Catherine Thibault accepts Allways Health Partners Insurance.

Neely Mercurio has treated my wife, myself and my six year old grandson for several years. We could not be more amazed at the results achieved via her acupuncture treatments for various ailments. Back pain, leg pain, sinus issues and neck ailments. Neely is very knowledgeable and has a very gracious caring concern for her clients. We have no reservation about highly recommending her for treatment. She is simply outstanding!

For several years now I have had problems with my back, Welcome Acupuncture has been my go-to place when I am visiting Massachusetts. Neely & Cat are both knowledgeable in their fields. They are gentle and try to accommodate as much as possible I would recommend Welcome Acupuncture for anyone looking for relief and answers to many chronic problems that may have seemed impossible to treat. I feel first time clients to the field of Acupuncture and related disciplines will be suprised and satisfied!

Catherine Thibault at Welcome Acupuncture has been working with me on and off for a couple of years. She's very knowledgable, and really takes the time to see how you're doing, what's working, what's not. She has a very comforting bedside manner, and helps me feel relaxed during the treatment. When I had problems with my insurance company (absolutely no fault of Catherine's) she was dedicated to getting things cleared up for me, spending a lot of time on the phone, email, etc to get the problem dealt with. I highly recommend her.

I am an RN with many decades of hospital and community health experience. I have also had many years of experience with various forms of alternative/integrative medicine practitioners, including 2 other acupuncturists before meeting "Welcome Acupuncture" partners, Neely & Catherine ("Cat"), approximately 10 years ago. They are THE best of the best!
Each one has particular expertise and experience that integrates Western and Eastern medicine. Each one has brought me through some complex, stubborn physical issues over the years. My initial skepticism soon turned into the testimony of a thankful client. In addition to my traditional MD(s), they are now a permanent part of my health care & maintenance team.
Along with bringing meticulous attention & seasoned skills by both practitioners to their client's current symptoms and history, Neely has an encyclopedic knowledge of supplements & nutrition as well as traditional medicine. And, NOBODY can give a healing massage like Cat who enlarges her approach with a background in business and patient advocacy. Her gentle kindness and compassion indeed says "Welcome"!
