Muscle injuries

Muscle injuries occur when the muscle fibers are damaged, typically from overuse, strain, or sudden impact.

Muscle injuries can range from mild strains to severe tears, affecting various parts of the body such as the legs, arms, back, or neck. 

 

Muscle injuries can cause pain, swelling, and limited mobility. 

They often result from repetitive movements, incorrect posture, or abrupt physical activity, but can also stem from accidents or trauma.

​

Acupuncture can help relieve muscle tension and pain. 

By targeting specific points on the body, acupuncture promotes blood circulation and relaxes the muscles, allowing the body to heal naturally. 

At North Shore Acupuncture Clinic, we use techniques tailored to each patient's unique injury to provide effective relief and promote recovery. 

Our holistic approach ensures a combination of acupuncture, massage, and natural therapies for a comprehensive healing experience.

How does acupuncture aid in muscle recovery? 

Acupuncture works by stimulating the body's energy pathways (meridians), which can relieve pain and reduce inflammation. By inserting fine needles into specific points, acupuncture promotes the release of endorphins and improves blood flow, enhancing the body’s natural healing response.

How is muscle healing enhanced through acupuncture?

Acupuncture helps restore balance to the body by addressing both the physical and energetic blockages that hinder muscle recovery. This non-invasive treatment method is ideal for reducing muscle stiffness and promoting faster healing.
