A Family-Owned Practice Built on Personal Attention

The Vital Health Foundation was built on a simple idea: every patient deserves focused, unhurried care from someone who knows their name and their history. As a family-owned practice, we keep our schedule appointments only, so each visit gets the time it needs. We don’t run a busy waiting room, and we don’t rush patients through their treatment.

Our clinic is also wheelchair accessible and welcoming to children, so families can visit together. Whether you’re coming in for a sore shoulder after a weekend game or a long-running tension problem, we want you to leave feeling heard and better equipped to take care of yourself.

Meet Dan Bertapelle, Licensed Acupuncturist

Dan Bertapelle, LAc, brings thirteen years of hands-on clinical experience to every treatment. His work centers on acupuncture and dry needling, two complementary approaches that can be matched to the specific concern you bring in. Dan treats the whole person rather than a single symptom, looking at how pain, stress, sleep, and daily movement connect.

His approach is practical and direct. He explains what he’s doing and why, and he works with patients to set realistic goals for recovery. Patients often describe him as thorough, calm, and easy to talk to, which is exactly the kind of care Vital Health Foundation was created to provide.
