Acupuncture
Acupuncture is a unique and natural approach to healthcare that has been used for thousands of years. This technique involves inserting delicate needles into specific points on the skin to balance the body's natural energy. Although it's primarily used to relieve physical pain, it can also offer relief for a range of health conditions including stress and anxiety. Research has shown that it can be very effective in treating many types of chronic pain.
Our Approach to Acupuncture
Dry Needling
Dry needling is a treatment that healthcare providers use for pain and movement issues associated with myofascial trigger points. It involves the use of thin needles that penetrate the skin and stimulate underlying muscular and connective tissues. This technique can decrease muscle tightness, increase blood flow, and reduce pain. The mild lesion created by the needle promotes blood flow and healing to the affected area.
Auriculotherapy
Auriculotherapy, also known as ear acupuncture, involves the placement of needles at specific points around the ear. It is believed that these points correspond to various organs in the body, making it a holistic approach to healthcare. Auriculotherapy offers a unique and potentially effective way to support your overall health and wellbeing.
Cupping
Cupping is an alternative medicine therapy that utilizes special cups to create suction in specific locations of the body to increase blood flow and reduce tension. It is a natural way to enhance healing and get lasting results. This technique is beneficial as it relieves tightness without the need for large pressure being applied. Cupping therapy can be an effective therapy for reducing muscle tension, improving blood flow, and decreasing inflammation.
