Traditional Chinese Medicine (TCM)
About Pain Management Acupuncture
Acupuncture is a cornerstone of Traditional Chinese Medicine (TCM) that has been practiced for millennia. Its application for pain management has a unique significance, as chronic pain led healers to discover specific acupuncture points that alleviated pain symptoms. Modern research has shown that acupuncture stimulates sensory nerves in the skin and muscles, which can help treat chronic pain. Acupuncture can manage pain through a range of mechanisms, including the release of endorphins, the Gate Control Theory, changes in neural pathways, mitigating inflammation, improving blood circulation, and the release of adenosine. Acupuncture’s multifaceted effects on the body, from neurochemical to neurological and physiological, collectively contribute to its efficacy in pain management.
Aspects of Chinese
TCM Pain Management Acupuncture
Consultation
Before the treatment begins, a comprehensive consultation is conducted. This includes examining the shape, color, and coating of your tongue, feeling your pulse, and other physical examinations to understand the nature and history of your pain.
Personalized Treatment Plan
Based on the findings from the consultation, a tailored acupuncture plan is crafted. This plan may also incorporate other TCM techniques, such as cupping or tuina, to enhance the therapeutic effects. Each session is designed to address not just the symptoms but the root cause of the pain, ensuring a holistic approach to healing.

The core of the treatment involves the insertion of fine, sterile needles into specific acupuncture points on the body. These points are meticulously chosen based on the patient's unique symptoms and the underlying imbalances causing the pain.
