Electroacupuncture Health Clinic
Acupuncture uses thin needles to stimulate specific points to relieve pain and other symptoms. The electroacupuncture procedure involves traditional needle insertion, then a small electrode is attached to the needle/s. The electrode generates a gentle electrical current that stimulates the energy circulating through the points. The process is believed to help increase blood and energy circulation, which can help relieve any pain and potential blockages.
In traditional acupuncture, the practitioner’s hand moves the needle to activate the point/s. In electroacupuncture the electrode takes over and ensures that the individual receives optimal stimulus. Electroacupuncture treatments tend to be shorter than regular treatments because of their continued and stronger electrical stimulation and ability to simulate larger areas. Conditions that electroacupuncture can treat include:
Stress
Chronic pain
Muscle spasms
Nerve injuries
Arthritis
Sports injuries
Obesity
Hormonal imbalances
Digestive issues like constipation or diarrhea
Neurological conditions
Electroacupuncture increases the intensity of the signals sent through the needles to help increase healing and is a treatment option that can be combined with other non-surgical therapies.
