Pain is the body’s warning alarm. It tells you something is wrong. If
you ignore your body’s alarm, similarly to the fire alarm in your house,
severe problems can form soon. Clinical studies support that acupuncture
is an effective modality in the treatment of almost all kinds of pain
conditions, including the following: migraines, neuralgia, neck pain,
back pain, herniated disc, TMJ, tennis elbow, carpal tunnel syndrome,
tendonitis, bursitis, arthritis, frozen shoulder, shoulder pain,
fibromyalgia, dysmenorrhea, osteoporosis, sports and other injuries,
surgical pain and even cancer pain. Recent research has elucidated some of the physiologic and biochemical bases of acupuncture.Acupuncture stimulation has been shown to release central nervous system endorphins and spinal cord dynorphins, explaining part of its mechanism of action. It has also been shown to promote the release of the chemical that activates the adrenal glands (adrenocorticotrophic hormone or ACTH), affect chemicals that are known to be involved in mood and pain perception (serotonin, GABA, catecholamines, dopamine, etc), and influence one of the body's pain-generating messengers (substance P). While its effects have traditionally been explained in terms of energy flow dynamics (Qi or Chi), science has shown that acupuncture may work at least partly by directly affecting the function of the nervous system. Long lasting pain often creates a chronic pain cycle: Pain, lack of exercise, limited physical activity, chronic fatigue, stress, depression, muscle tension, tightness, cramping, sensitive nerves, and again, pain. Patients suffer from this pain cycle. Some patients even feel that their quality of life changes completely due to a chronic pain condition. Acupuncture; · quickly reduces pain and inflammation, and relaxes muscles · increases circulation to speed up recovery time · maintains longer positive results and prevents recurrence · reduces pain without the prolonged use of drugs and surgical intervention · promotes physical and emotional well being · enhances endocrine and immune function · lowers cost, acupuncture treatments are less expensive · fully integrates with other therapies Many our patients have noticed the effectiveness of treatment within the first 2-4 sessions; others have had severe pain, swelling and stiffness significantly relieved by the time they have experienced 6-10 acupuncture treatments. For acute pain, even one or two treatments can be very helpful. More treatment may be required to control the pain from malignancies or progressive disorders. |
