How Acupuncture Supports
Sports Injury Recovery
Acupuncture works by stimulating specific points in the body to restore balance and promote natural healing. For sports and activity-related injuries, acupuncture helps by:
-
Reducing inflammation to ease swelling and stiffness.
-
Improving circulation to speed recovery of muscles, ligaments, and tendons.
-
Releasing endorphins for natural pain relief.
-
Relaxing tight muscles that can worsen injury or delay healing.
-
Restoring balance in the body to prevent compensatory strain.
This holistic approach not only relieves pain but also supports full recovery, so patients return to activity stronger and healthier.
​
Recover faster and get back in the game.
