🔎 The science behind acupuncture  ➡️ Here’s what we know from science about some of the ways that acupuncture work to address pain conditions:  1. Acupuncture releases trigger points. If you’ve ever felt like you had a “knot” that was probably a trigger point. These are common and releasing them often provides some immediate relief.  2. Acupuncture triggers the release of powerful natural painkillers  3. Acupuncture triggers the release of natural anti-inflammatory agents that help to reduce inflammation   4. Acupuncture improves circulation  5. Acupuncture regulates your autonomic nervous system to get you out of “fight or flight” and engage your “rest and digest” system for tissue healing and a feeling of calm.  6. Acupuncture improves sleep  7. Electroacupuncture has been shown in clinical studies to be superior to acupuncture alone for pain relief  Ready to experience it for yourself?  📅 Visit our link in bio to book

Sciatica is one of my favorite things to treat. 
Many of my sciatica patients come to me as a last resort.   They’ve already tried steroid shots, epidurals, PT, and sometimes surgery.
They come in hoping, but not quite expecting, that something will help. 
Acupuncture is uniquely suited to chronic pain conditions like sciatica because it promotes tissue healing, reduces inflammation, and provides pain relief - without drugs.   Our treatment approach also always considers what is going on in this glutes/hips.

In my experience as an acupuncturist treating sciatica for years…   The glutes are the most overlooked problem area in cases of sciatica.  We treat the low back and the glutes with electrocupuncture, and patients get life changing results.  
Watching that shift, when relief comes and they start trusting their body again, is one of the best parts of my work.

If your body feels sore, stiff, achy, or “stuck” after long days at a desk… it’s no wonder!

Our bodies are resilient and amazing but they are not designed to sit at a computer for 8+ hours a day. Over time, tension accumulates in the muscles, nervous system, and connective tissue — often leading to neck pain, back pain, headaches, jaw tension, poor sleep, and more.

Acupuncture is an effective treatment for this postural stress.

Here’s how acupuncture works for postural tension:

✅ Releases trigger points or “knots”

✅ Improves circulation to help heal affected soft tissue

✅ Triggers the release of endogenous pain killers (these are powerful pain killers made by your body)

✅ Triggers the release of natural anti-inflammatory agents

✅ Regulates and calms your nervous system so your body doesn’t default to responding to stress with muscular tension.

Whether it’s new or longstanding, your body has the capacity to heal with the right support. ✨

Did acupuncture fail you?…

Or did you just not do the whole treatment?

Most patients seeking acupuncture are looking for help with a chronic condition.

The number of treatments is generally proportional to the severity of a condition as well as how long it’s been a problem.

If your provider didn’t spell that out for you, you may have expected dramatic results from one treatment!

And when you didn’t get that you figured acupuncture just didn’t work for you.

I’ve seen many patients who had this prior experience with acupuncture and I’m so glad they gave it another shot.

Most acupuncturists know that it takes time to see lasting results, but unfortunately not all are comfortable or willing to explain that to their patients. Which is crazy!

So - didn’t get results with one treatment? Consider going back, and ask: How many treatments do I need and how often should I be coming?

And if you only went once because you didn’t feel heard, or you were uncomfortable, or the treatment was painful - come see us. Patient comfort is a top priority to us.

You should literally be comfortable enough to fall asleep during treatment.

Period cramps that are sharp or severe?  Blood stasis might be the cause.
⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀
Menstruation requires blood to move — which makes it a natural time for blood stasis to reveal itself.
⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀
In Chinese Medicine, “blood stasis” means blood isn’t flowing freely and smoothly.⠀⠀⠀⠀
⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀
Here are 3 signs that blood stasis is the cause of period pain:
⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀
🔹 Cramping that’s sharp, stabbing, or severe
⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀
🔹 Clots in the menstrual blood — the larger, more formed ones point more clearly to stasis
⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀
🔹 Blood that’s brown or deep purple
⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀
♦️If blood stasis is present, your custom herbal formula will include herbs that invigorate blood flow and clear out stagnation. Acupuncture points are selected to help move blood along the right pathways too.  〰️ When qi and blood move freely, that’s when periods get easier. 〰️  ⭐ We target the root cause of period pain for lasting relief without pharmaceuticals.

Every time I get a new sciatica patient there are a couple thoughts that cross my mind:  1. Woo hoo! Let’s do this!

2. It’s amazing how much a person can go through within mainstream medical for sciatica and NEVER have anyone address muscular tension.

Acupuncture and Chinese Medicine really show their value chronic pain cases like sciatica.   If you have disc issues that were evident on an MRI, you may have had a surgeon that advised you on whether surgery was indicated.  If you have life disrupting pain, you may have been offered a steroid injection.  Maybe (hopefully) you were referred to a physical therapist.   But did anyone assess whether you had painful trigger points in the muscles of your low back or hips?   Did anyone explain the nuance of whether the pain you were experiencing is coming from what you saw on the MRI or from muscle and nerve issues that are treatable without surgery and pain medication?

Did anyone ask if you’re sleeping well enough to receive the restorative benefits of deep sleep?  Did anyone ask if mental overwhelm is a trigger for your sciatica flares?  Acupuncture SHINES in these cases of chronic pain because it fills a gap in conventional medicine.  It’s been such a joy to watch patients who were almost out of hope recover - and return to things they thought they would never be able to enjoy again.  If you’ve been suffering from sciatica, or another chronic pain condition, schedule a Complimentary Consultation to learn more.  ⭐ All New Patients Start with a Complimentary Consultation
