Richmond Acupuncture and Chinese Herbal Medicine |
Thank you for your interest in Thunderbolt Wellness. I am a Licensed Acupuncturist (L.Ac.) and practitioner of Traditional Chinese medicine (TCM), and I practice Acupuncture in Richmond, Virginia.
Welcome to my website. I encourage your feedback and invite you to contact me with questions.

The inspiration for Thunderbolt Wellness comes from the idea that we contain within us the ability to bring about change in a single moment. A representation of this idea is the symbol above, called a vajra (Sanskrit) or thunderbolt, which illustrates an instantaneous change in consciousness or thought that can bring about change and healing in our lives. Another example is the I Ching pictogram of Thunder or Zhen 雷 which represents sudden change or movement. It is the energizing principle within the renewing season of spring.
Just as thunder brings about resonant change in nature, we also hold this power within us for transformation in all aspects of our lives, including our health, but sometimes taking that next step can seem elusive, or even painful. My goal is to provide tools for you to take control of your health.
I provide private holistic health consultations and treatments in a nurturing clinical environment, treating one patient at a time so that you may have my undivided attention. We work together to design individualized treatment plans that create positive, conscious change in your life and health utilizing acupuncture, lifestyle counseling and Chinese herbal medicine.
Please contact me to find how acupuncture and Traditional Chinese medicine can benefit you,
and how I can help you to reach your goals.
In joy and health,
Janet L. Borges, L.Ac.
