Acupuncture for Shoulder Pain (near Andover, MN)

Acupuncture for Shoulder Pain (Pain and Women’s Health near Andover, MN)

Acupuncture Treats Shoulder Pain

Shoulder pain is relieved with acupuncture, whether due to overuse injury or wear and tear injury, such as rotator cuff injury with the consequence of decreased range of motion.

Acupuncture treats pinched or entrapped nerve such as Thoracic Outlet Syndrome or Cervical Radiculopathy with numbness or pins and needles sensation.

Types of Shoulder Pain Acupuncture Can Treat

This is because acupuncture is good at treating all types of pain, including all types of shoulder pain. Acupuncture treats shoulder pain due to many root causes; overuse injury, nerve entrapment, auto injury, arthritis, or due to long-term mobilization of arm post-surgery (shoulder stabilized with a sling or cast).

Types of Pain in General that Acupuncture Treats 

Acupuncture treats pain due to inflammation and blocked qi (stagnated energy or circulation). It can help with inflammation after surgery or injury.

What is NOT Fixed by Acupuncture

However, acupuncture does not repair structural issues, such as broken bones or snapped or severed tendons. Acupuncture should never be used in place of emergency medical care or necessary surgery. There have been many instances where patients or prospective patients have approached me to “fix” such structural issues and I, of course have referred them back to the surgeon/ specialist before they get to the point of no return, i.e., damaged tendons or progressive nerve damage.

Acupuncture, Pain, Inflammation and Range of Motion

Acupuncture, can however help repair an injury more quickly by bringing in fresh qi and blood (improving circulation) in the area. For example, acupuncture can help heal scar tissue after injury or surgery by breaking up the scar tissue to improve sensation and mobility or range of motion to the site.

How Soon Should You Notice Results with Acupuncture?

Typically, acupuncture should improve pain within three treatments. More may be needed for significant improvement, especially if the pain or issue has been around longer (chronic).
