Acupuncture benefits for Athletes of all levels

Acupuncture has long been used to treat all sorts of pain, including pain from muscle and joint sprain/strain injuries. These injuries can hinder athletic ability and performance. Blocked circulation that results post-injury, can be facilitated through Acupuncture by restoring oxygenated blood to those affected tissues.  It can help reduce inflammation, treat the source of the pain and speed recovery time. It is also very helpful for prevention, by creating optimal circulation, joint mobility and restoring qi/energy balance after prolonged activity or competition.

When starting a new exercise program and monthly for highly active athletes, it is ideal to come in for an Acupuncture treatment to synchronize the two sides of the body and their meridians, for optimal balance and function.
