Even Sciatic pain (low back/ buttock traveling down one leg) can be greatly reduced or resolved with Acupuncture.

Acupuncture gives hope for relief of almost all types of pain!

–It truly works on inflammation and pain.

 

 

How Many Acupuncture Visits:

Most Back Pain is resolved quickly within 4-6 treatments.

Some relief (often significant relief) is usually felt after the first treatment.

 

Other Ways Acupuncture Can Help:

Acupuncture can also be great to get right before a Chiropractic adjustment.

Why is this? 

Because Acupuncture loosens up the back muscles and helps lower inflammation.

This can help prep the back for an adjustment before a chiropractic appointment.

 

Just to be clear, We do NOT do Chiropractic adjustments. Only Acupuncture. And Cupping (when appropriate).

And Facial Cosmetic Acupuncture.  And e-stim (electric stimulation/ tens unit) attached to needles (when necessary).

How Does Acupuncture Work (What is the Science Behind it?)…

What is the Science behind How Acupuncture Helps Pain and Depression?

 

  • Fight or Flight vs. Rest & Digest
  • Acupuncture increases circulation
  • Acupuncture lowers inflammation
  • Acupuncture releases endorphins (feel-good hormones)

 

I get this question often from friends, family and patients:

How does Acupuncture relieve?…

 

Well, I will tell You How…

1. Acupuncture decreases Pain by persuading the body to release specific endorphins.

These endorphins relieve pain.

 

2. Acupuncture increases Qi and blood (circulation) to the affected area and decreases inflammation in the body.

Inflammation causes pain. Chronic (long-term) inflammation causes disease.

Acupuncture decreases Pain & Inflammation. 

 

3. Acupuncture urges us out of Fight or Flight mode–back into Rest & Digest mode (no morphine required).

 

This is also how acupuncture prompts the body to deal with mild to moderate depression & anxiety-

 

Did You Know Acupuncture Lights up the Morphine Center of the Brain?!…

 

This is Why the Military Uses Acupuncture called “Battlefield Acupuncture.”

 

It is used by the military because it is cheaper and faster-acting than morphine. They can administer needles and get enough pain-relief within five minutes to then assist hurt soldiers from the field.

They can then attend to the more critically wounded.

The military has spent much time and money on researching the effects of acupuncture on pain relief. This is for good reason. Many soldiers do not want to take pain medications.

They do not want to get dependent on or addicted to drugs.

 

Youtube has a video of “Battlefield Acupuncture” done by the military.

Check it out to see for yourself!
