Athletes worldwide, both elite and amateur, seek acupuncture for treatment of sports injury, prevention of injury, rest and recovery, and athletic enhancement. 

In searching for a safe and effective ergonomic, research into acupuncture for athletic benefit is growing. Studies have shown acupuncture to be effective in:

  • Increasing strength & endurance
  • Reducing muscle soreness & DOMS
  • Speeding injury repair
  • Promoting Parasympathetic Nervous System activation to increase rest & recovery and negate overtraining & injury
  • Increasing immunity, wellbeing & quality of sleep

Common injuries treated include:

  • Back pain & sciatica
  • Shoulder pain
  • Neck pain
  • Knee pain
  • Tennis & golfers elbow
  • Shin splints
  • Muscle sprains and tears
  • Plantar fasciitis
  • Achilles tendonitis
  • Mortons neuroma
  • IT Band & hamstring tightness
  • Limited range of motion

I work with a cross section of athletes, including those who participate in: Crossfit, Olympic weightlifting, body building, running, swimming, cycling, tennis, golf and dancing, using a combination of acupuncture, sinew channel treatment and Gua Sha.

Of course, you don't have to be an athlete to suffer from many of the above conditions, or fasciomusculoskeletal pain in general. If you are in pain, don't suffer in silence - give acupuncture a try.
