Medical Acupuncture
Medical Acupuncture is a Therapeutic modality of Western medicine that uses current knowledge of anatomy, physiology, pathology, and the principles of evidence-based medicine. It acts mainly by stimulating the nervous system.
Acupuncture is a form of treatment for many different conditions, which includes but not
limited to:
-Chronic pain
-Acute pain from injury
-Spinal cord disease
-Immune system dysfunction
-Lick granulomas
-Reproductive problems
-Dry eye or corneal ulcerations
-Some respiratory conditions
-Seizures.
It typically takes more than one acupuncture and/or laser session before you may see significant results. Even though there are exceptions, most conditions take between 3-5 sessions once a week or month, and may need periodic
maintenance sessions.
Electro-Stimulation (E-stim)
Common technique used in Acupuncture in which electrical currents course into
the body between the inserted acupuncture needles. The electrical waves relax spasming muscles and moves stagnant blood flow, increasing circulation.
Common conditions treated include, neuromuscular disorders (ex. Wobbler’s syndrome), and spinal fractures or injuries.
Laser Therapy
Laser therapy helps with soft tissue healing and pain reduction. It stimulates the release of endorphins, causes vasodilation, and promotes lymphatic flow. Laser therapy brings more blood to the area, flushes out inflammatory mediators and swelling, and accelerates tissue repair by increasing cell division rate and activating cells needed for repair.
