Treatment for sport, orthopedic and musculoskeletal issues helps to resolve inflammation and edema which helps to resolve pain. It increases muscles, tendons, fascia flexibility and restores the muscle’s function.
What to expect: An acupuncture needle is inserted into the muscle belly and then stimulated with a gentle electric current. At first it may seem strange to have your muscle moving without any effort on your part. After a few minutes, most people find it very relaxing.
People generally see a change within 1-3 visits. Expect to come in weekly for 6 weeks.
Each treatment is followed up with soft tissue work which restores functionality of the limb and corrects any kind of fascial distortions.
