Acupuncture is one of the most effective drug-free treatments for pain relief.  Treatments are minimally invasive and simple – small, sterilized stainless steel, single-use, medication-free needles are tapped into the skin. Whether for healing injuries or managing pain, acupuncture frequently provides instantaneous relief with long lasting results when proper treatments are administered.  Pain is the body’s way to communicate with the brain that blockages need to be removed in order to restore normal physiological and emotional function. By stimulating specific acupuncture and trigger points with needles, acupuncture will stimulate blood flow, relax and re-train muscles, soothe nerves, and renew the body’s ability to heal. As a result, pain is relieved.

 Acupuncture can help energy flow smoothly, and alleviate not only the symptoms of stress and anxiety, but the stress and anxiety itself. Numerous studies have demonstrated the substantial benefits of acupuncture in the treatment of stress. Acupuncture improves circulation of blood throughout the body, which oxygenates the tissues and cycles out cortisol and other waste chemicals. The calming nature of acupuncture also decreases heart rate, lowers blood pressure and relaxes the muscles. While it isn't always possible to remove the external forces causing stress, the ability to effectively deal with stress is a choice. Take time for yourself to cultivate the energy you need to handle your stress more skillfully and effectively. Depression, Anxiety, Fatigue, Insomnia (Poor Sleep), Agitation, Hypertension, etc.

   Acupuncture can improve digestion. When digestion works more efficiently, the brain gets the message that the body has been fed, and with that message, reduces the cravings. The metabolic pathways work better and nutritional intake increases. There are a variety of acupuncture points that are very effective for overcoming cravings and even acupressure points that the individual can learn to do while at home, away from the clinic.

 A headache is a condition that occurs when a patient experiences pain in any part of the head. The most common type is a tension headache, which usually causes a dull pain on both sides of the head. Patients with a tension headache may also experience scalp and muscle tenderness. A migraine is a severe headache that can last for days if left untreated. The pain from a migraine typically occurs on only one side of the head, and it may throb or pulsate. Patients with migraines may also experience nausea, vomiting, blurred vision, sensitivity to light, or sensitivity to sound.

Physical or emotional stress cause most tension headaches. Researchers believe that chemical imbalances in the brain or changes in the interaction between the trigeminal nerve and the brainstem cause migraines. People who are migraine-prone may be more likely to experience headaches after encountering certain triggers, such as specific chemicals, changes in the weather, or hormonal changes.

Our providers have a variety of treatment options that can alleviate migraines and headaches. Some of the treatments we offer include massage therapy, acupuncture, chiropractic care, cupping therapy, and natural medicine.
