Did you know that chronic pain impacts over 1.5 billion people in the world? The chronic pain epidemic severely impacts quality of life for nearly 1/3 adults in the United States.
As if that wasn’t bad enough, standard pain management treatments are often not enough to address chronic pain. They are also wrought with negative side effects. Opiates and other pain medications can cause drowsiness, anxiety, irritability, nausea, and other issues. Many pain medications are addictive, and in some cases can lead to severe health issues and dependency – and even death.
If you are one of the countless Americans struggling with chronic pain, and are concerned about the negative side effects of traditional pain management approaches, we have good news: Acupuncture can help!
“Kim is a master at relieving pain and getting the vital energy moving in the right direction. Just make an appointment. You won’t be sorry!” – Gala G., 5 Star Google Review
As many as 85% of chronic pain sufferers have found relief from acupuncture, and has been found to be 200 times more effective than morphine at relieving pain!
Acupuncture involves the insertion of tiny, hair-thin needles into specific points on the body to promote balance. Scientific research has found that when it coms to pain, acupuncture works by impacting neurotransmitters and hormone levels. In particular, acupuncture stimulates the release of endorphins, the body’s natural pain-killers.
Many patients experience pain relief in as little as one single acupuncture treatment, although a series of acupuncture treatments are typically necessary to manage chronic issues. Patients report feeling little to no pain — and enormous benefit, often beyond just pain relief.
