Acupuncture is a safe, natural and drug-free health care system that can provide immediate relief and long lasting benefits. It can help you return to peak performance by restoring the proper and continuous flow of vital energy, called Qi. Qi circulates within a series of pathways called Meridians. Meridians disperse Qi throughout your body providing nourishment for every tissue, muscle and tendon. The circulating Qi supports, strengthens and enlivens your entire body, supplying you with the power to perform, good health and pain-free living.
If the flow of Qi is disrupted, blocked or out-of-balance, it will not circulate freely within your meridian pathways. When this occurs, it can lead to a variety of symptoms and signs including, pain, swelling, stiffness, limited range of motion and fatigue. This can result in less-than optimal health and may ultimately hinder your performance. Acupuncture is part of a broad-based approach. Treatments may be combined with other therapies such as; herbs to naturally eliminate pain and reduce inflammation, exercise to increase muscle strength and joint mobility and massage to enhance soft tissue healing.
Acupuncture can provide a competitive edge, leading to improved performance. It is also a viable therapy in the treatment of acute sprains, strains and pains. This ancient and effective form of health care can reduce swelling, improve range of motion, strengthen your body, speed recovery time and address any underlying problems that could contribute to a future injury.
