Hip Pain
Hip issues include arthritis, piriformis syndrome, sciatica, gluteal tightness & pain, and strained groin muscles. Acupuncture can also help manage pain prior hip surgery.
Low Back Pain
Research shows acupuncture to be highly effective in treating low back pain. We are able to treat sciatica and piriformis syndrome with the aid of trigger point therapy and E-stim.
Neck Pain & Shoulder Pain
Acupuncture treats neck and shoulder ailments: tension due to long hours sitting in front of a computer (aka ‘Tech Neck), stress holding patterns, poor posture, post operative pain, whiplash, frozen shoulder, or traumatic injury.
Electric Stimulation (E-Stim)
E-Stim is the application of small scale electric pulsing to trigger points or other inflamed tendino-muscular areas for pain management.
Trigger Point Therapy
Active trigger points (or bundles of tight musculature and connective tissue) can cause pain at the site of constriction, or refer pain to other parts of the body. Once an active trigger point is released with an acupuncture needle, the patient may feel immediate relief.
Pain Management
Pain of all types can be addressed with acupuncture. Studies have shown that when acupuncture is administered, parts of the brain associated with pain management are ‘lit up,’ showing the positive effects of acupuncture on certain pain receptors.
