Sports Medicine & Pain Management

Orthopedic-style acupuncture and dry needling to reduce pain, restore movement, and support recovery.

Acupuncture is commonly used to support recovery from both acute and long-standing pain, including:

BEFORE & AFTER SURGERY, PRE-HAB AND REHAB

Many patients seek treatment when pain has lingered despite stretching, massage, or other therapies.

Dry needling is a technique that stimulates motor points, where a nerve enters the muscle. Stimulating these points resets the muscle's resting tension, easing tightness and pain. This is often combined with e-stim, or electrical stimulation, in which a tiny current is sent through the muscles to retrain nerve-muscle communication. Helpful post-injury, through rehab, or athletic recovery, combining with acupuncture lends to whole-body relief and lasting results that address both the local source of pain and the patterns behind it.
Inflammation, stress levels, posture, and movement patterns all influence how the body holds tension and recovers from injury. Treatment may include a combination of:
- Reduce inflammation and stimulate healing
- Dry needling, motor point and trigger point work to release tight muscles
- Cupping therapy to improve circulation and tissue recovery
- Functional recovery guidance to support long-term mobility
This approach helps address both the immediate pain and the factors that allow pain to persist
Many patients experience a noticeable reduction in muscle tension during treatment as circulation improves and the nervous system relaxes.
Some feel relief after the first session, while others notice gradual improvement over a series of treatments as the body continues to recover.
