Overview of Treatment

Acupuncture, rooted in traditional Chinese medicine, focuses on restoring balance and promoting the body’s natural healing processes. By gently inserting fine, sterile needles into specific points on the body, acupuncture stimulates the flow of energy, known as Qi (pronounced “chee”), and promotes the body’s self-healing mechanisms. This approach helps to reduce pain, alleviate inflammation, improve joint function, and enhance overall well-being.

Conditions Treated

Our acupuncture treatments effectively address a range of joint pain and arthritis conditions, including:

  • Osteoarthritis
  • Rheumatoid arthritis
  • Joint stiffness and inflammation
  • Gout

 

During your initial consultation, our experienced acupuncturists will assess your specific condition, taking into consideration your symptoms, joint involvement, and any underlying factors contributing to your joint pain or arthritis. This thorough evaluation allows us to create a personalized treatment plan tailored to your individual needs and goals.

Treatment Process

During an acupuncture session for joint pain and arthritis, you will rest comfortably on a treatment table. Our acupuncturist will gently insert fine, sterile needles into specific acupuncture points on your body. These points may be located near the affected joints, along the corresponding meridians, or in other areas, depending on your individual condition and treatment plan.

Once the needles are in place, you may experience a mild sensation, such as warmth or tingling, but the treatment is generally well-tolerated and minimally invasive. You will have an opportunity to relax while the needles remain in position for approximately 15 to 30 minutes. Many patients find this time to be calming and rejuvenating.
