About Cheryl R. Blankenship, LAC

Island Acupuncture opened its doors in 2001. We are committed to providing quality healthcare to our community. Island Acupuncture is the only healthcare practice in the Outer Banks that specializes in Traditional Chinese Medicine (TCM).

Our licensed acupuncturist holds a Master of Science Degree in Traditional Chinese Medicine and attended an accredited acupuncture college in the United States, with training in Acupuncture, Trigger Point Dry Needling, Herbal prescriptions, and Western medical assessment.
