Pain Management Program
Whether you are experiencing a new injury or you have been dealing with pain for many years it can be more than just physically debilitating but also mentally. I can personally attest to how hard life can be suffering with pain. I actually became an acupuncturist because I was so enamored with the benefits of acupuncture following a car accident in my late teens.
Providing a natural approach to pain management has become ever so import in the light of the opiate crises. As a result more and more doctors are referring to acupuncture for the treatment of pain. This is because acupuncture helps aid in decreasing or eliminating pain by releasing your own pain killing hormones, decreasing inflammation around the affected area, relaxing tense muscle tissue, calming the mind, and speeding up the healing process.

*Treatment duration is dependent on each individual’s concerns and needs but typically I suggest 2-3 treatments within a week and then decreasing treatments to 1x/week for a couple of weeks and if things are progressing well then decreasing again to 2x/month and if things have recovered completely then discharging or recommending coming in once a month or every few months for tune ups.
