How Did On Point Health and Wellness Celebrate Its 10th Anniversary?

Introduction

Dr. Kacy Korcyzk started getting acupuncture at age 16 and fell in love. She always knew her passion would be to open a clinic like her ‘On Point Health and Wellness’ and now she’s celebrating its 10th anniversary.

Community Support

“This could not be done unless it was in a small town like this. The backing that I have, the support that I have — it’s pretty incredible,” said owner/acupuncturist Korcyzk. “And the patients, they truly love it. And it’s nice that I get to kind of give this piece of health to this community that hadn’t had it before.”

Growth and Expansion

According to the doctor, her clinic was a wildest-dream scenario, and now she has a pinch-me moment. “I started on my own ten years ago, just in a room at a doctor’s office, and then kept expanding,” Korcyzk said. “Now we have a 10,000 square foot building with a huge collaboration of other therapists and people that are really passionate about wellness and holistic health.”

Specializations

Korcyzk specializes in sports acupuncture, as well as general medicine and sees everything from allergies to pediatric colic, insomnia, and PTSD in veterans. But her real passion is pain and orthopedic injuries. She collaborates with her six licensed medical massage therapists to give a whole health picture. And she just started offering neurofeedback.

Innovative Treatments

“A combination of neurofeedback and acupuncture is something that I really want to try and explore. We also offer infrared sauna, the salt room, which is really good for allergies and respiratory illnesses, ionic food soak, cupping, and hyperbaric oxygen chamber sessions,” the doc said. “We also have yoga and we do some group training (personal training) as well. So yeah, a little bit of everything. And I’m not done exploring all the other things I can add to the clinic.”

Holistic Approach

What alternative health fields do we not have here? “That isn’t pushing a pill on someone and (let’s) try to get that into West Virginia. Even if someone comes to me with, like an ankle sprain, if they’re not sleeping or have digestive issues we can also tackle that,” said Korcyzk. “So it’s treating the whole body — which is really unusual in Western medicine.”

Male Patients

The doc says she remembers in school they said, ‘You’re never gonna get male patients, men don’t like to seek help.’ Yet so many of her patients are veterans and active men.

Conclusion

“Surprising that this even took off in the first place in West Virginia is the biggest thing, I think,” said Korcyzk, of her business.
