- In Chinese Medicine, pain is caused by blocked circulation
- Acupuncture improves circulation so your body can heal itself
Pain is the most common reason people get acupuncture. Acupuncture can be very effective to relieve pain and restore circulation.
We always treat the whole person, not just symptoms. For knee pain, there are specific acupuncture points around the knee that open up circulation in the knee. They basically remove blockages.
If you have pain, often you have other issues with your health that might have contributed to the pain not going away on its own. This is where acupuncture and herbs excel. When you improve your overall energy levels and circulation, the pain can go away and stay away.
Often, people try acupuncture to treat their pain and learn that so many other symptoms go away at the same time.
