Acupuncture works by stimulating the body’s natural self-healing mechanism. Regular treatments kick-start the nervous system to release a cascade of chemicals (endorphins, hormones, immune responders) who then work to regain homeostasis and reduce pain in the body. Simply put, the body loves balance. Acupuncture helps to restore that balance.
At Elliott Therapeutics, we use acupuncture as a tool to relieve pain, reduce inflammation, boost the immune system and to balance hormones. As a result of treatments, we frequently improve conditions like insomnia, infertility, headaches, allergies, digestive issues and of course aches and pains. If you’re not sure that acupuncture can help you, please reach out for a personal evaluation of your condition or click here to learn more.
Anyone living with chronic pain understands the mental and emotional toll it can have on the body. Acupuncture not only works to relieve pain quickly but to also heal the body on a deeper level because it addresses the root cause of the pain. Drugs and surgery are not the only approach to managing chronic pain. If you haven’t tried acupuncture, now’s the time to do so.
Sports Acupuncture focuses on common injuries to the musculo-skeletal system. These treatments are geared toward increasing performance, relieving pain and most importantly, reducing the risk of injury. We use this style of acupuncture on professional athletes, including many Minnesota Vikings players, as well as anyone looking to become a better athlete.
Want to looking younger without surgery or injectables? Our facial rejuvenation treatments focus on stimulating the production of collagen to reduce fine lines and wrinkles. Regular treatments, however, also enhance the overall appearance and tone of the skin.
Women’s Health Acupuncture focuses on conditions ranging from menstrual disorders to fertility challenges to menopausal symptoms. If you’re having trouble getting pregnant or are tired of daily hot flashes, our treatments offer a natural way to balance your hormones.
Dry Needling is a form of acupuncture that focuses on releasing trigger points, aka knots. Many people seek this out as a stand alone therapy but when it’s combined with a full acupuncture session, the results are compounded. Your muscles will begin to relax almost instantly after a dry needling session and with a few consecutive treatments you should have reduced pain levels and increased mobility. There’s no need to book a “dry needling” appointment, all appointments geared toward improving musculoskeletal problems will be focused around this style of acupuncture.
If you are looking for pain relief, more energy, less stress and improved sleep and digestion, then we may have just what you need. At Elliott Therapeutics, our number one goal is always your comfort. No matter if you are a first-timer or have done it a dozen times before, we are confident you’ll love your experience each and every time you visit us. Read more on our blog.
