Acupuncture for Back Pain According to Traditional Chinese Medicine all pain is due the blockage of the flow of blood, acupuncture can remove the blockage and increase the blood flow and eliminate the root cause of the pain.
For most of acute pain, acupuncture relieves pain in about five minutes, this is much quicker than most pain killers. The response of the body to acupuncture for chronic pain may take a little longer.
We treat pain with a number of devices including Electromagnetic Acupuncture and Heat Therapy which can vary the intensity of the treatment according to your needs.
In the case of severe disc trauma, acupuncture can be very useful when physical manipulation through chiropractic care is too painful or undesirable by the patient.
Here, Acupuncture can provide a very gentle but highly effective treatment. The Harmony Clinic has extensive experience of treating both Lumbar, Thoracic and Sacral back pain.
Neck pain is a very common complaint in the clinic and it often refers to pain in the upper back and shoulders as well. Side effects of neck pain can include dizziness and headaches.
Neck pain can have a variety of causes, muscle fatigue, locking of the joints in the neck, stiffness and limited range of motion. It can also be caused by a sudden force (car accident), or a medical condition (swelling, disease, tumours, bleeding, inflammation, etc).
Some neck pain can also cause headaches and/or dizziness. Acupuncture is highly effective at treating neck pain no matter what the cause. Acupuncture will reduce inflammation which in turn will reduce pain and increase movement.
Acupuncture is also a “non-invasive” procedure on the neck as it does not physically manipulate the vertebrae and it gets great results. Neck pain is predominantly treated with acupuncture, electro-acupuncture and in some instances heat lamps and results are very positive.
Here at Harmony Acupuncture we have great success treating neck pain.
