Nicole Murray, L.Ac., MSTOM, founder of Beach Microneedling, is a highly experienced acupuncturist, having given over 60,000 treatments to date. Acupuncturists are experienced and well trained with needling the skin. We have Master’s degrees in Chinese Medicine and spend four years in training with acupuncture before taking the state board licensing exam. Microneedling has its roots in acupuncture (from Latin: acus-needle; punctura: to puncture). Nicole earned her microneedling certification in 2018, and has given hundreds of microneedling treatments.
Microneedling is a medical procedure. In California, only physicians (most commonly dermatologists) and licensed acupuncturists may perform the procedure.
Microneedling is a natural extension of the work acupuncturists do all day, every day.
