In addition, I have learned techniques like myofascial trigger point releasing otherwise known as dry needling and electro-acupuncture muscle stimulation, which effectively treat many physical pain problems. A patient can come in with a complaint of chronic tendonitis anywhere on the body and dry needling can help resolve it in a matter of a few sessions. It is a remarkable therapy that releases the tension and inflammation stored in a muscle so that you can feel back to normal again quickly.
Cupping therapy is a great complement to acupuncture. It has become very popular in elite athletic circles including with olympians. Cupping offers a release of muscular tension, stagnation in circulation and provides both relaxation and pain relief.
