Get Back Out Into Your Breathing Space

Does an injury have you sidelined? Acupuncture and Chinese Medicine is excellent for treating pain, and for treating the underlying causes of the pain.  Athletes tend to respond very quickly to acupuncture.

These conditions are commonly treated:

• Neuromas
• Plantar Fasciitis
• Knee Pain
• Hamstring Pulls
• IT Band Syndrome
• Achilles Tendonitis
• Ankle Pain
• Neck Pain/Neck Tension
• Low Back Pain
• Upper Back Pain
• Shoulder Pain

Acupuncture can also treat other concerns that may be interrupting your workouts,  such as:

• Seasonal allergies
• Asthma
• Headaches

Nancy uses several tools of Chinese Medicine to treat pain and to help athletes get back to doing what they do best – whether it is running, biking, swimming, climbing or yoga.  Acupuncture may be used as a complement to physical therapy, chiropractic, or other therapeutic programs.

In addition to acupuncture, you may be treated with cupping, herbal medicine (taken as pills or used externally in a patch or soak), moxa, massage or stretching.  There is more information about each of these modalities under the Chinese Medicine tab.  Schedule your treatment today, so you can get back to doing what you love!
