At VALOR Spine and Joints Rehab, we offer acupuncture, a centuries-old practice known for its effectiveness in treating a wide range of ailments through a non-invasive and safe method. Our experienced professionals use this traditional Chinese medicine technique to enhance your health and well-being without the need for medications.
Acupuncture involves the insertion of very thin, sterilized stainless steel needles at specific points on your body. These points are strategically located along your body’s energy pathways, where the needles stimulate your body’s natural healing processes with minimal discomfort.
Most people experience little to no discomfort during an acupuncture session. The needles used are extremely thin, and many patients describe the sensation as a mild tingling, warmth, or gentle pressure rather than pain. Before treatment begins, your provider will explain the process, answer your questions, and tailor your care to your comfort level.
During an acupuncture session, needles are inserted into the skin at various depths, targeting muscles and tendons. This process is designed to boost your body’s energy flow, or Qi, promoting balance and triggering your body’s natural painkillers.
Acupuncture is renowned for its ability to alleviate pain and discomfort without the dependencies associated with traditional painkillers. For many people, acupuncture supports gradual improvements in pain, movement, and overall well-being while taking a holistic approach to care.
Acupuncture can also support people through different stages of life and changing health needs. If you’re expecting, explore our guide to how acupuncture may help support comfort and well-being during pregnancy.
