How We Can Support You
Whether you’re experiencing sudden discomfort stemming from an injury or enduring persistent pain due to an underlying condition or unresolved ailment, our expertise lies in pain management. Acupuncture and herbal medicine emerge as effective, non-invasive methods to address these challenges head-on.
Acupuncture plays a pivotal role in pain relief through various mechanisms. One of the ways that acupuncture serves as a therapeutic technique is by activating the body’s inherent self-healing mechanisms. This is achieved through localized circulation enhancement, neurotransmitter regulation, muscle relaxation and the promotion of endorphin release which serves as a natural source of pain relief (1). Additionally, acupuncture modulates pain perception at the central nervous system level, tackling pain symptoms at their root (1). When combined with cupping therapy, and herbal medicine, acupuncture is highly regarded for its ability to reduce inflammation, thereby promoting healing and alleviating pain.Chinese herbal medicine complements acupuncture by prolonging its effects post-treatment, ensuring optimal and sustained relief.
Acupuncture has a profound effect on the brain (1). Acupuncture points can produce an analgesic effect, even those points found on the meridian and not directly where the pain is (1)
