  • Acupuncture neuro-modulate the nervous system to decreases pain and mechanical stress on injured tissues, increase range of motion, and restore proper muscle tissue and nerve functions.

HOW MANY TREATMENTS WILL I NEED?

  • Our goal is to reduce the frequency, intensity, and duration of the pain. Promote functional movement, increase range of motion and improve quality of life.
