Acupuncture for pain

Acupuncture is most commonly known for the treatment of pain conditions, both acute and chronic. We all experience pain from time to time. But when pain starts to intrude our everyday wellbeing, Acupuncture offers a powerful and drug-free treatment alternative. You don’t have to suffer, nor do you have to keep trying treatments that aren’t bringing relief. Our goal in treating pain is helping you reclaim your joy and freedom of living a pain-free life.

common myths about pain

  • Pain can sometimes come with age, but normal wear and tear is different from chronic pain. Chronic pain can affect any age group, and can vary with age.

  • Never tough out your pain. From pet therapy to meditation to classic drug treatments, there is a treatment available for everyone.

  • Chronic pain can’t kill you, but it can severely impact the quality of your life. Seeking professional help before despair sets in is critical.

  • Exercise doesn’t just have physical benefits. It can also boost your mood, lower anxiety and treat depression. Light to moderate exercise can reduce stress and improve blood and oxygen flow to your muscles.
