Shoulder Pain
Acupuncture can be used to treat shoulder pain by targeting specific points to reduce muscle tension, improve circulation, and decrease inflammation in the affected area. Shoulder pain is often caused by overuse, poor posture, or injury, leading to tightness and limited movement. Acupuncture works by stimulating certain acupoints to trigger the release of endorphins, the body’s natural pain relievers, and enhance blood flow to the shoulder muscles. It can also help restore balance in the body’s energy flow, addressing underlying factors that contribute to chronic pain. Consistent treatments can help relieve stiffness, increase mobility, and provide long-term relief from shoulder pain. A lot of times repetitive movements can cause shoulder pain especially overhead exercises such as a military press.
Traditional Chinese Herbs provide a natural and effective solution for shoulder pain by addressing inflammation, improving circulation, and relaxing tight or overworked muscles. Traditional Chinese herbal formulas are designed to target the underlying causes of discomfort, whether from injury, overuse, or chronic tension. By supporting the body's natural healing process, herbal medicine can help reduce stiffness, restore mobility, and prevent future pain flare-ups. When used alongside acupuncture, these customized herbal treatments enhance recovery, alleviate discomfort, and promote long-term shoulder health.
