While there are many famously great things about the city of Tulsa, one of the less well-known but equally great gems of our town is Maplebrook Acupuncture, where DeWayne and crew offer incredibly beneficial acupuncture and Chinese medicine consultations. Over the past two years, Dr. Baugus has provided consistently effective treatments which have helped me greatly on a path to perfecting my health. His knowledge and competency are remarkable, and the pleasant environment of the treatment rooms at Maplebrook makes it almost like an hour mini-vacation for me. Although there are many reasons I love this city, DeWayne and his needles are near the top of my list! 10/23

I am so thankful to have found Dewayne and Ildi at Maplebrook Acupuncture Clinic! Although I have no prior acupuncture experience, I consider myself fortunate to have found a practice that is equal parts compassionate and knowledgeable. At each appointment, Dewayne takes the time to fully hear about any issues and works hard to provide the highest quality of care in the most comfortable manner possible. I have been coming regularly for several months and am grateful to have access to a therapy that helps keep the challenges of my Fibromyalgia pain in a more manageable state. I happily recommend this clinic to anyone with almost any health condition. 8/1/23

I am sincerely grateful for Maplebrook Acupuncture. Dr DeWayne & Ildi are both compassionate and intentional about listening to and helping each individual who comes through their door. The environment is very clean and peaceful. Treatment is individualized, unrushed and offers a time of restoration and balance.

I began my treatment sessions almost a year ago and have no regrets; except, perhaps that I waited so long to walk through the door. You see, I just couldn't quite recover from a surgery I had undergone four months prior. I met with DeWayne for my initial intake, and we dissected my issues. I'm an extremely private person but had no reservations in sharing personal information with DeWayne. He exudes confidence in his knowledge and skills and has empathy to spare. He and Ilde truly care about the people who seek them out for relief. They both take the time to get to know you. They are absolutely genuine. My health and wellbeing have improved immensely as a result of the treatment I have received, and I look forward to a healthy future! Susan M.
My husband and I were trying to get pregnant starting in November with no luck. I was in the peak of stressful nursing school that caused a huge imbalance in my hormones. I came to Dewayne a few months before school ended to work on stress and anxiety before we could focus on fertility. School was completed in May and Dewayne then focused on rebalancing my hormones. I could tell there was a “balance” or “evenness’” to my body with a lack of better words immediately after the first session. Within two months we conceived our baby boy. 🙂

My experience with DeWayne Baugus can be summed up as miraculous. I learned of his battlefield acupuncture technique after my son prompted me to find someone here who performed it. My oldest son is an injured veteran who learned of this from the VA. I had extreme difficulty walking. My right foot was nailed to the floor, and I sometimes just could not move. I had bouts with incontinence and my sleep was restless at best. I came to my first appointment at Maplebrook Acupuncture clinic in my motorized wheelchair where I had been for almost a year. After the first treatment, I came home and parked in the garage and walked across the garage to the kitchen door. I had not done that in over a year. By the time I saw DeWayne, I had sought treatment from neurosurgeons, neurologists, and orthopedic surgeons and never got any relief from their treatments. DeWayne’s first question to me was, what do you want to get from this therapy. I responded, just let me walk. If I am out for a long walk, I still use my walker, but I have not been in my wheelchair since my first treatment. My sleep and incontinence have improved, and I rest much better. I am not 100% yet but I continue to improve with each treatment. DeWayne is compassionate and has excellent diagnostic skills. He is a great listener and prays for my healing. I cannot describe how grateful I am for the treatments I have received. Sincerely
Randal M. DC.
Maplebrook acupuncture has been an extremely positive experience and helped me in multiple ways. I originally went for fertility help when trying to get pregnant naturally at age 40. Many doctors told me it would be unlikely due to my age, but after 4 months of treatment and diet changes, I was able to get pregnant naturally. I continued treatments throughout my pregnancy and Dr. Dewayne was able to help with nausea, headaches, muscle aches, and pains without having to take medication. It was very important to me to take limited medication during my pregnancy and Dr. Dewayne made that possible. After having the baby my milk came in slowly and Dr. Dewayne was able to increase my milk supply by double after my first treatment and then increased again after my second treatment. In addition to helping me with fertility, the treatments have also helped with anxiety and everyday stress. I believe anyone can benefit from the treatments and would highly recommend trying for any ailment or health issue.

I started visiting Maplebrook Acupuncture while going through a frozen embryo transfer at our fertility clinic. I knew acupuncture could help increase the chances of success and since I had already been there before and had a great experience, I trusted I’d be in the best care with Dewayne and Ildi again. I love how they took the time to help me understand what each needle was doing and how it was helping my body get ready for the embryo transfer. Every week I looked forward to acupuncture, lying in a nice, comfortable recliner, listening to peaceful music, and taking the best, hour-long nap. We found out our embryo transfer worked and I am now pregnant! I believe Maplebrook Acupuncture had a huge part in the success. I am so grateful for them and will continue to visit and receive care as often as I can! Annie R.
Aging is no longer a problem for me since I began weekly acupuncture treatments at Maplebrook Acupuncture Clinic. Dr. DeWayne Baugus is a medical genius and always knows just what my body needs to stay balanced and functioning at an optimum level. Not only do I feel younger, but most people think I’m 10 years younger than my age. Thank you, Dr. Baugus, again and again.

I started getting acupuncture treatments this past summer for carpel tunnel. I was on the list to see a specialist to get ready for carpel tunnel surgery, but that appoint was months away and needed something to ease the pain. My chiropractor recommended acupuncture and Dr. Baugus. I’m picky about my acupuncturist and didn’t have much hope but would give it a try. I can say Dr. Baugus is one of the best. He takes the time to find out everything that is going on with you mentally, emotionally and physically and will recommend a treatment that would work best for you. He is amazing at explaining what how the treatments work and how everything is connected mentally, emotionally and physically as well as blending western and eastern medicine. The treatment center is very calming and relaxing and feels like a spa treatment. After less than 5 treatments I was able to cancel my surgery plans and I’m able to fully use my right hand with my 10 key with very little to no problems. This saved me a surgery cost and down time. I’m sure a few more treatments and it will be completely gone. During my last treatment I mentioned that an old hip injury was flaring up and he treated that as well, this one will take more treatments – but the next day I could walk with no pain. It isn’t cured but with more treatments I’m sure I will have just as amazing results as I received for my carpel tunnel. I plan on keeping acupuncture as part of my monthly routine just for body tune-ups. I highly recommend Maplebrook Acupunture Clinic and Dr. Baugus and his amazing wife/assistant Ildi.

A routine colonoscopy triggered my IBS into a bad state. After a few treatments with DeWayne, my digestive system calmed down! The results are amazing! - Steve
Two weeks after my third dental implant and extensive dental work, I was admitted to the hospital for the first time. For the next 2 ½ years I was admitted to hospital seven times and sent from doctor to doctor trying to get a diagnosis. After seeing twenty three doctors and health practitioners, discounting the numerous doctors in the hospital, I was no better. At this point I had I had 14 diagnosis My heart issues were, Bradycardia, arrhythmia Abib. Hoshimotoes, Celiac, sleep apnea. MTHFR Gene mutation, Hypoxia, Antibody Defiency Disease and others, many of this were related to my compromised immune system already existed. Apparently the extensive dental work just ut my health over the top. Doctor D. was able to make the connection between the cranial nerve issues that aggravated my hiatal hernia. Apparentely the dental work had damaged the vagal nerve. The moment he inserted the acupuncture needs in the appropiate meridians the burping, chest pains, high blood pressure and low heart rate I had endured for over two years stopped. If you feel you can’t get better that simply is not true finding the right treatment is the answer. We in American have been made to believe that western medicine and a prescription is the answer but in my case and the case of many others we have found help in alternative medicine when western medicine didn’t know what to do.

Two years ago I walked into Maplebrook Acupuncture Clinic as a last resort following several years of steroid injections and a year of epidermal injections for chronic back pain. 800 mg of ibuprofen taken 3-4 times a day was making it possible to continue an active work load. The sliding scale pricing made 3 visits a week affordable for over 6 months, gradually decreasing to two times a week, and now, two years later, I am on a maintenance schedule for the pain. Extra treatments are scheduled for any sign of sciatica, colds, or after travel. Expertise and integrity are paramount to this clinic, but first and foremost, DeWayne and his staff work hard at diligently establishing relationships. If you've suffered from chronic pain and want to avoid surgery, DeWayne will work to find a solution, patiently listen to your concerns, and give you the utmost best possible care. I highly recommend Maplebrook Acupuncture.

I visited this clinic for the first time today. This clinic has been recommended to me about 5 times recently by happy clients. Dr. DeWayne Baugus spent time with me listening and asking questions to best determine where the focus needed to be for my treatment. He was very thorough and I had a very professional experience. I also had pain relief in my knee when I walked out, so that exceeded my expectation for a first visit. I noticed that Dr. Baugus had served in the Army and I thanked him for his service. He was very knowledgeable and I have another appointment on Monday.

I love Maplebrook Acupuncture! Awesome people.

Great people. Great results. A must-try. Several family members and I get treatment often.
- Sheri
After my first session, I had minimal hip pain for over 24 hours and felt less stressed than I had in a long time. It's amazing how much better I felt! I would recommend it to anyone. Everyone here is so nice.
- Suzanna
I visited Maplewood Acupuncture this evening after 3 days of excruciating pain. I could barely walk this morning and hadn't slept for two nights. It took Dewayne 3 minutes to pinpoint (no pun intended) and another 2 minutes to block and alleviate the pain. It makes me wonder why I didn't call earlier! Beyond Thankful!
- Sandra
Amazing!!!! All I can say is wow !!! I feel good when I'm here and when I leave. My knee was bothering me for a long time. After a few sessions no more pain. Actually I feel 21 again. I will always continue acupuncture. The staff is super friendly.
- Shawna
I had sinusitis and the medications were not working. One session and the difference was amazing. Thank you so much!
- Elizabeth
Amazing!!! I know I can get relief when I visit for my headaches!
- Sheryl
I can't say enough about the help I've received from Dewayne. After dealing with some pain in my shin and ankle for months, it took only one session for him to alleviate this problem. No more pain! With another issue, it did take several sessions for complete resolution, but I could feel some improvement immediately after each session. And now I am sleeping through the night! If you have been dealing with chronic pain I highly recommend Dewayne and Maplebrook Acupuncture.

1 year ago I was having a lot of pain in my right leg! I had gone to the Dr., of course, he said it was arthritis. What is arthritis? A lot of pain and limping around. Friends told me that I needed to go to DeWayne at Maplebrook Acupuncture Clinic, he could help me! Well, my opinion of that was very low! Said I didn’t believe in that! Well, I was really mistaken! I no longer have any pain in my legs or really anywhere else in my body! Understand, I am 77 years old! Climb stairs every day! No pain! So don’t make a judgement on something you know nothing about. I praise this man and his wife every day! Awesome people! Love them!!
- Judy
The atmosphere is very family-like, each staff member caring and attentive. Dewayne is an amazing healer. He listens, asks questions, observes responses and develops a plan to give each patient the best result. He is all about continuing education and is willing to check into new studies of many natural genres. He is definitely keeping me mobile!! He is blessed with his healing gift.
- Donna
Since seeing DeWayne I am enjoying uninterrupted sleep, healthy digestion, and relief from stress. He has become an essential part of my self-care routine.
- Cathy
Tulsa has a welcome gift in having DeWayne and his wife Ildi to represent acupuncture at it's finest! I am observing a steady improvement weekly of my lower back and other body concerns, one being weight control and thyroid after attempting so many other possibilities to remedy the situation I look forward to success at last. I most hardily recommend this extremely knowledgeable and compassionate doctor with his great skill to manage a wide range of health matters. I just love the team at Maplebrook!
- Manda
I went to Dewayne after I had been to several doctors and a physical therapist for pain in my body. I didn’t want to start on pain medications. Dewayne has given me a lot of relief. He listens to you and tries different things to find the path to good health. He is very knowledgeable about a lot of health issues. The whole staff is very helpful.
- Rita
Dewayne is amazing and a truly gifted healer. I was mowing my yard and fell off a step and hurt my foot. I went to my doctor who sent me to an Orthopedic surgeon. The Orthopedic surgeons said the only way for my foot to get better was to have posterior tibial tendon reconstruction. The surgery would require 8 to 10 months of recovery with ongoing physical therapy. I hated the thought of such serious surgery and decided to give De Wayne a chance to help with my injury. After the first treatment, I left walking better and had less pain. I have been going for weekly treatments and every week I get stronger and have less pain. Each week the treatment lasts longer. I have canceled my surgery because my foot, with De Wayne's help, is getting stronger each day! I can’t say enough good things about DeWayne. He is kind, compassionate and most of all knowledgable!
- Karen
I absolutely love this place! DeWayne and Ildi are two of the sweetest people I have met in my life. I have suffered from severe chronic pain in my back for several years. I have had all kinds of procedures and injections done during that time span. None of it really helped. When I came into Maplebrook, I wasn't sure what to expect. In the middle of my first treatment, DeWayne asked me to stand. My pain level dropped from a 10 to a 3. That had never happened in 8 years dealing with medical doctors. Now, I leave the clinic pain-free and that is lasting 24 hours and beyond. If you knew what I've dealt with, you would call that a miracle. Nothing else has ever given me this kind of relief. I am so thankful to the people of Maplebrook for giving me hope, hope that was all but gone from my life. If you are having issues such as mine, don't wait. This is the place you need to be. You won't regret it.

I started acupuncture to help with RA symptoms as a recommendation from my Rheumatologist, especially to boost my immune system, lower the joint and muscle pain, and migraines. DeWayne and his wife are very professional, knowledgeable, and their clinic offers an affordable and relaxing atmosphere. I highly recommend Maplebrook, they have helped me greatly!
- C. LPC, NCC
I discovered Maplebrook Acupuncture after I sprained my ankle. The cost was so reasonable, compared to other places I called. The results were fantastic. DeWayne is an amazing healer, very knowledgeable! He has helped me in so many ways. I always leave there, feeling very calm and relaxed. The staff is wonderful and caring. I highly recommend Maplebrook!
- Celia
Acupuncture removes blocks and opens the body to the opportunity to do what it was designed to do: Heal Itself! When you're ready to heal, you won't find a more skillful or intuitive acupuncturist anywhere! DeWayne is amazing and the clinic is a true gift to Tulsa, Oklahoma. I'm so glad I found my way to Maplebrook because weekly acupuncture helps me stay healthy (with no medications).

Dr. Dewayne is fantastic, educational, patient, understanding, he’s the best! Thank you, doctor, for giving patients the option to get treatment without drugs. You are a fantastic man.
- Kathie
The help I have received from DeWayne's acupuncture treatments has been life-changing. I've received acupuncture by two other providers in different cities. DeWayne's ability is far superior to my previous experiences. I've received more pain relief, in a shorter time frame, with DeWayne's gift of healing. DeWayne and his wife Ildi have created a very warm and welcoming atmosphere for the patients. As a result, they have developed a true sense of community at Maplebrook.
