Pain Management
Pain comes in many forms, and can be an ongoing struggle or one time challenge. Our center in Aventura Florida strives to alleviate all kinds of pain related to all kinds of conditions, and acupuncture is one of the most powerful and effective means we use.
For thousands of years, acupuncture has assisted in pain management. Originally developed within the context of Traditional Chinese Medicine (TCM), it is now widely practiced throughout the world, in both the Eastern and Western hemispheres. While different traditions and parts of the globe view acupuncture though their own unique lens, the general consensus is that the method is applicable to a host of chronic and acute conditions, including back pain and neck pain.
Our center is a well respected source of complementary and alternative medicine in South Florida, and uses nothing but the most trusted treatments. Acupuncture is administered by a professionally licensed practitioner, and always with painless, sterile, one-use-only needles. Better yet, you’ll enjoy relaxing in a calm, healing atmosphere, without the harsher elements of more clinical and invasive environments.
Addressing Chronic Pain with Acupuncture
Patients struggling with chronic pain are often given medications and home care instructions. While it’s true that much of this will work, there is always a possibility of side effects or even making things worse with improper self-care. Acupuncture, on the other hand, comes with few to no risks, and is given by qualified, knowledgeable professionals.
Some of the chronic conditions treated with acupuncture include
- back pain
- neck pain and stiffness
- shoulder pain including frozen shoulder
- knee pain
- headache and migraine
- musculoskeletal pain and fibromyalgia
- carpal tunnel syndrome
- golf and tennis elbow
- joint pain from arthritis
- plantar fascitis and many other types of foot pain.
If you’ve been living with pain that conventional medicine can’t seem to cure, consider relief though acupuncture. It works!
Addressing Acute Pain with Acupuncture
While acute pain might be a less well known challenge addressed with acupuncture, many seek it out in cases of work or sport injury. All too often, the pain of such events lingers even after healing is underway, and our team wants to see you back on your feet and active as soon as possible.
Back pain and neck pain can occur acutely, yet be incredibly debilitating. Rather than take high doses of pain killer, and risk the potential side effects, look to acupuncture as a safe and effective form of treatment.
Children may experience acute pain in the wake of surgery or other procedures, and acupuncture is proving to be an option for even these very young patients. Parents and doctors like that acupuncture comes with minimal to no side effects, and causes no pain of its own on the small bodies.
