Acupuncture and Massage for Dupuytren's Contracture. Natural Healing Options for Hand Mobility

Acupuncture and Massage for Dupuytren's Contracture

Dupuytren's Contracture, a condition affects the tendons in the hand, often results in pain, stiffness, and limited mobility. Fortunately, acupuncture, massage, and herbal remedies can play an important role in managing symptoms and improving hand function.

How does acupuncture help manage Dupuytren's Contracture symptoms? 
Acupuncture is very beneficial for treating Dupuytren's Contracture. This ancient practice works by relieving pain, reducing stiffness of the hand, and improving overall hand mobility. Acupuncture can also help slow the progression of the condition and promote healing by stimulating energy flow (Qi) and nourishing the tendons with improved blood flow. 

The Role of Massage in Treating Dupuytren's Contracture:
Massage (with Tendon Lotion, a specialized herbal topical that helps to relieve pain, soften and relax the tendons) is another effective approach for managing Dupuytren's Contracture. Massage helps to improve circulation, reduce stiffness, and maintain flexibility in the fingers and hand.

Natural Herbs for Healing Dupuytren's Contracture: 
Dupuytren's usually starts in middle age or later, though it can sometimes develop in younger adults. As we age our Jing (our vital energy) starts to deplete and the tendons and ligaments become depleted and not sufficiently nourished. Besides staying hydrated and eating well this Bone & Tendon Healing Soup can help restore the declining vital substances and promote healing of tendons, ligaments. Plus it tastes yummy!

How Many Sessions Are Needed for Dupuytren's Contracture Treatment?
The number of acupuncture sessions varies depending on the severity of the condition. Initially, we recommend two sessions per week. As the hand softens and mobility improves, the frequency can be reduced to one session per week.
In between acupuncture sessions I highly recommend using the Tendon Lotion 3-4x daily to soften the stiffness in the hand. Drinking the Bone & Tendon Healing Soup daily for tho-three months can further support the healing process.
