Acupuncture is a time-tested, safe, natural and drug-free alternative that can provide immediate relief and long-lasting benefits. It can help you return to peak performance and optimal health by restoring the proper flow of Qi and blood. This speeds recovery time, addresses the root cause of the problem, enhances performance and can help prevent future injury.
Acupuncture has a very successful record with sports injuries. Many professional sports teams have acupuncturists on staff to decrease healing times and resolve stubborn ailments.
Through the insertion of very fine, sterile needles at specific points, acupuncture stimulates the body to produce its own natural pain killers (endorphins), natural anti-inflammatory and anti-stress hormones. The improved energy and biochemical balance produced by acupuncture promotes physical and emotional well being.
It works in the following ways to help you bounce right back into action:
- Lessens bruising
- Reduces swelling and inflammation
- Reduces pain
- Increases the range of motion and flexibilty of the affected joint
- Decreases muscle spasm
