Acupuncture

Acupuncture is a type of Traditional Chinese Medicine used to promote healing in the body by placing needles along specific meridians and anatomical landmarks in the body.

Acupuncture can help increase energy levels, improve function of affected areas, and decrease pain by releasing endorphins. While acupuncture can be used to treat a wide variety of conditions, we focus on acupuncture’s ability to treat neuromusculoskeletal injuries.

Dry Needling

Dry needling is a form of acupuncture that involves the insertion of acupuncture needles into the muscles to help relieve myofascial pain and trigger points. The needle is usually inserted into a muscle’s motor point, which is the most excitable part of the muscle, to elicit a local twitch response. Overall, dry needling promotes faster healing and muscle relaxation, and is an effective form of pain management of soft tissues.
