ACUPUNCTURE AND PAIN MANAGEMENT

Acupuncturist, Grass Valley, California

Did you know?

Acupuncture is a safe, natural and effective way to treat any type of pain, acute or chronic.  Stimulating the secretion of endorphins, the body's natural pain killers, pain sensations are blocked and reduce nerve inflammation without the harmful side effects of medications.  Acupuncture also helps microcirculation, inside and outside the cells, allowing for a healthier cellular state to exist. It increases blood flow to the muscles and breaks the cycle of muscle spasms, making it the perfect answer to drug free relief.
