Pain and Acupuncture
Chronic pain can be debilitating and a source of stress for patients suffering from constant pain. Pain not only affects the mind, but patients can also gradually experience loss of movement and control of body parts. Pain can be eliminated or relieved using acupuncture. From chronic pains caused by bad posture, injury, or inflammation, to post-operative pain, Fibromyalgia, migraine headaches, and even menstrual cramps, acupuncture triggers the body to heal itself by stimulating the release of steroids and endorphins for pain relief and healing. With acupuncture treatment, endorphin levels rise and patients experience pain relief for several days. Within this period, the body is able to heal itself. The idea is to keep the endorphin levels at a constant in order to promote long term healing. After acupuncture, patients feel relief of pain instantly or experience gradual decrease of pain or decrease in the number of pain attacks. It is important to maintain consistent acupuncture treatments in pain management. Along with acupuncture treatments, herbal supplements are also prescribed to increase circulation, reduce inflammation, and relieve pain. Sessions are scheduled according to the condition of the patient as well as the patient’s response to the treatments.
