Whether you suffer from a herniated disc, orthopedic or sports injuries or any number of other conditions, acupuncture improves your overall health and quickens your recovery.
Acupuncture reduces swelling, pain and encourages more blood to flow toward and nourish the injured area. Acupuncture has been shown to reduce post-operative healing time. It is also very effective in treating sports injuries, repetitive strain injuries, and other inflammatory conditions.
My goal is getting you back to your desired activity, enhancing performance and preventing re-injury through treatment and education. I place strong emphasis on the posture and the core, since most injuries have components of postural deficits. Your treatments are supplemented with manual therapy, corrective exercises, nutritional & daily living recommendations as well as referrals to any other providers if needed.
dry needling:
Myofascial trigger points are palpable knots, a wad of muscle fibers staying in a hard contraction, never relaxing. They may cause localized pain, referred pain or reduced range of motion and function. Whether they are caused by new or old injuries, improper or overtraining, incorrect posture or just life, trigger point acupuncture/dry needling is very effective in the treatment of muscle pains and helps to return the natural balance to your muscles.
Your dry needling sessions are complimented with evaluation of your movement and suggestion of corrective exercises are also provided. These two I find are essential to really correct and overcome the problem. It is one of the safest ways to address physical problems such as chronic neck, back pain, sciatica, TMJ, tension headaches or whiplash injuries .
