Sports Acupuncture combines Sports Medicine diagnostic techniques and Traditional Chinese Medicine to provide a comprehensive view of a patient’s injury and age old techniques to heal them.
The goal is to accurately assess the location and severity of your sports related pain. This is accomplished by using a combination of orthopedic special tests, range of motion, manual muscle testing and palpation to identify the injured tissue.
Once the source of the pain is determined, Sports Acupuncture works to address the athlete’s healing potential thereby strengthening the patient, and as a result, decreases injury rehabilitation time. Getting the athlete back to their desired activity, enhancing performance and preventing re-injury through treatment and education is the goal.
Both professional and recreational athletes can benefit from the healing nature of Sports Acupuncture. This would include anyone who plays a sport or engages in physical activity not traditionally considered a sport, such as weight training, circuit training, yoga, zumba, spin class, stair climbing, dance class, etc.
If you live an active lifestyle, have injured yourself or just want to decrease the odds of injury and would like to continue on a healthy path naturally, call us at 508-792-3200 and make an appointment today!
