Heal with Acupuncture Therapy Edmonton

What is acupuncture therapy?

Eastwood physiotherapy clinic provides Acupuncture Therapy in NW Edmonton to help people suffering from fibromyalgia, muscle spasms, sporting injuries & other discomforts. Acupuncture needles are most often inserted at specific locations on the skin called acupuncture points. These points are located on specific lines outlined by tradition, referred to as meridians or channels. According to Chinese medical theory, there are 14 major meridians that form an invisible network connecting the body’s surface with the internal organs. These pathways are believed to be energy channels through which energy flows through the body. Click here and book a slot right now to get our acupuncture treatment.

How does the therapy work?

Acupuncture therapy works by restoring the normal energy balance within the body, therefore, allowing natural healing to occur. The insertion of the fine needle into the tissues also releases endorphins. Endorphins are made by the body and are one of the body’s own natural pain-relieving chemicals. These endorphins block the passage of pain signals to the brain and therefore help to relieve or reduce pain within the body. When pain is reduced, the body can then restore normal biochemical balance and promote healing. Acupuncture therapy Edmonton will help you to get all of the above-mentioned benefits.
