Use of Acupuncture for Pain

Acupuncture is an alternative medicine treatment used for various types of pain. It stimulates the body’s natural healing abilities and promotes physical and emotional well-being. It is an ideal therapy to augment recovery, reduce pain, and quicken healing time. Here are some of the ways acupuncture can ease your pain.

• Ease pain and heal after an injury – Acupuncture has proven to be an effective treatment for recovering if you have sprained or strained ligaments, joints, or tendons or if you suffer from chronic pain due to an injury. Acupuncture helps remove blockages to aid recovery.
• Chronic pain – Acupuncture is an effective treatment, especially for back and neck pain, osteoarthritis/knee pain, and headaches, including migraines. It often reduces the incidence and severity of tension headaches and may prevent migraines.
• Muscle stiffness and tension – Acupuncture can improve flexibility, decrease muscle tension, and increase muscle activation. It is widely used to relieve neck and shoulder tension, including tension-type headaches.
• Encourages range of motion – When the tissue becomes inflamed, it tightens and thickens around the joint, triggering pain and reducing the range of motion. Acupuncture can naturally relieve pain, stiffness, and inflammation in conditions such as a frozen shoulder.

When the acupuncture needles are placed on the body, a signal is sent to the brain triggering a release of endorphins, the body’s natural painkillers, and an anti-inflammatory effect. Medical researchers and scientists believe this gives acupuncture its pain-relieving results.
