Chinese Medicine for PAIN – So much more then needles!

Chinese Medicine for PAIN- so much more then needles!

Acupuncture is well known for treating PAIN but did you know we do so much more?

Stacy Robson at AcuMed Asot combines massage, cupping, acupuncture, heat therapy and electro stimulation to stop pain.

What happens in a session?

Massage is first applied to the local area to relax muscles and start the healing process.

Suction cups are placed over the local area to increase local micro-circulation.

Acupuncture works at a deeper level to increase blood flow, reduce inflammation, increase movement and stop pain.

Heat therapy (moxa) or electro stimulation is placed on the needles.

Heat softens and strengthens weak areas.

Electro stimulation sends a vibration between the needles that repairs muscle fibre tears.

Chinese medicine is effective for all types of pain: back pain, headache, sport injuries and more.

Acute pain resolves within 1-2 sessions.

Chronic pain will reduce from 1-2 sessions while follow up treatment may be necessary.
