Ian G Armstrong, LAC, CSMA

Acupunturist, Founder of Funktion Acupuncture

Educator, student, acupuncturist movement enthusiast!

In his early adult life, Ian developed a strong interest in running, health, and fitness. He was living in New Orleans after completing his jazz performance degree when, as a runner in this historic city, he faced a few different ailments that led him to seek help.

He was quickly frustrated with the care he received from traditional medical settings. Ian’s frustration turned to curiosity and passion to change the way care is administered for injury and pain.

Since starting his education in Traditional Chinese Medicine in 2005, he has continued to learn, teach and hone his skill set to treat and care for his patients. Aside from thorough assessment and treatment, Ian believes proper care should include an explanation of the issue at hand, to empower the patient with better understanding and self awareness.

Ian blends Sports Medicine Acupuncture, Traditional Chinese medicine, manual therapies and corrective exercise in his treatments, finding the right mixture for each individual patients needs and goals.
