Acupuncture Gives Effective Pain Relief
Acupuncture is a safe alternative to traditional pain relief treatments
and drug therapies. Acupuncture therapy clears the blockage of vital
energy within pathways in the body, called energy meridians, each of
which is linked to a specific organ or organ system in the body.
If you suffer from Rheumatoid or Osteoarthritis, Carpel Tunnel
Syndrome, Fibromyalgia acupuncture can offer complete pain relief
naturally and with no adverse side effects. Acupuncture can also give
you complete pain relief if you are experiencing pain caused by bone or
muscle weakness, injury as a result of physical trauma or poor posture,
migraine or stress headaches or even pain from cancer or cancer
treatments.
If you are considering acupuncture therapy, you will be well-served to
keep a pain diary or record of your pain. Your Acupuncturist will be
able to plan the most effective treatment therapy for you if you can
succinctly and accurately describe the type of pain, how long you have
experienced the pain and whether or not it is intermittent or constant.
In other words, you should report if the pain is stabbing or dull and
aching, confined to one area or radiating to extremities. Different
treatment points are selected for each type of pain and with accurate
information your Acupuncturist can treat you and relieve your pain in
the shortest amount of time.
There are three primary steps in the acupuncture pain relieving
process. The first step involves stimulating organs that correspond to
the specific pain. This step produces energy and blood flow which
nourish the whole body and specifically the area experiencing pain. The
second step is to identify the meridian to tap into. The final step in
the process is to determine the points of needle insertion to target
the painful area.
The needles the Acupuncturist uses are stainless steel and about the
thickness of a human hair. They are inserted into specific treatment
points in the human body, which then send a message to the central
nervous system. When the central nervous system receives the signal,
the brain releases endorphins, a natural brain chemical that helps in
pain suppression.
A personalized treatment plan will be developed by your Acupuncturist.
The plan will consider the nature and source of the pain, i.e.,
chronic, radiating, result of injury, etc., as well as your significant
medical history. The needles that are inserted during the treatments
will be left in place for several minutes. The actual duration will be
determined by your response to treatments, which will be scheduled for
several weeks out, until you realize long-term pain relief.
Prescription and over-the-counter drugs only provide temporary pain
relief. Often muscle relaxants or anti inflammatory drugs only provide
temporary relief from pain and can sometimes cause adverse side
effects. Acupuncture therapy affords long-term relief of pain with no
harmful ingredients or dangerous chemicals to harm your body or disrupt
your normal daily activities. No debilitating side effects from
acupuncture are experienced as with many anti-inflammatory drugs or
prescription narcotics.
Acupuncture does not provide a one size fits all, instant cure for pain
suffers. It takes time to restore your body's energy systems to their
properly balanced state. Some symptoms, though, may be diminished after
only one treatment. The number of treatments your Acupuncturist
determines you will need to achieve complete pain relief will depend
upon several factors including how long you have been in pain, the
cause and nature of the pain as well as how quickly you respond to
treatment.
Acupuncture offers a holistic approach to pain relief, treating not
only the pain but also the cause of the pain. With no adverse side
effects, acupuncture is a safe alternative for pain relief.
