Results-driven traditional Chinese acupuncture for recovery and pain relief.
Traditional Chinese Acupuncture (TCM) is a style of acupuncture that is suited to many health needs, especially for recovery and pain.
Points are chosen to reduce swelling, bruising, and inflammation. Promote blood flow, relax spasms, stimulate lymphatic function and immune response, and encourage the production of endogenous healing mediators in the tissue while suppressing pain signals.
We see many conditions in the clinic including trigger and motor point pain patterns, tenosynovitis, tendinopathy, contusion, muscle tears, hematoma, edema, arthritic conditions, bruising, disk impingement, paresthesia, sprain, strain, bursitis, tendonitis referred pain and scar regeneration.

Traditional Chinese Medicine (TCM) acupuncture is a holistic system of healthcare that has been developed and refined over thousands of years. Rather than looking only at symptoms, Chinese Medicine assesses how different systems of the body are functioning together and how lifestyle, stress, environment, and overall health may be contributing to imbalance.
Treatment focuses on supporting areas of weakness or dysfunction within the body to encourage recovery, resilience, and overall wellbeing.

Acupuncture stimulates the secretion of natural healing proteins and immune factors within the body to encourage fast repair of injured tissue. It improves blood flow, reduces nerve activation to control pain, and prevents ongoing inflammation and swelling to enhance fast recovery.
Acupuncture also promotes the production of endorphins to help control the pain experience and create a deep sense of relaxation during and after treatment.
