Medical Acupuncture for Pain Management
Acupuncture therapy involves insertion and stimulation of very fine acupuncture needles. These needles may be stimulated by manual twisting and thrusting or by heat (moxibustion) or electrically (electroacupuncture).
Electroacupuncture produces a bigger area of stimulation and appears to be much more effective than manual acupuncture.
Medical Acupuncture is a Western adaptation of Traditional Chinese Acupuncture. We use current knowledge of anatomy, physiology and pathology to stimulate these acupuncture points to override pain. This therapy is backed by Clinical Evidence.
Are you suffering from chronic pain? Medical management has its limitations, why not try holistic care, for mind & body therapy! Medical acupuncture can help with chronic pain management by breaking the pain cycle. It is a safer treatment alternative to medications and injection therapies and can sometimes avoid the need for surgery. The benefits maybe short-term to start with but is cumulative with successive treatment sessions.
