Acupuncture Programs in Vancouver
Acupuncture is an ancient, safe and effective alternative to medication as it stimulates the release of endorphins (the bodies natural pain-relieving Neuro hormones) through the insertion of needles into specific anatomical points (acupuncture points) to encourage natural healing.
The therapeutic effects include: .
- Pain relief
- Increased energy
- Improved mood
- Improved
mobility/ function
Gunn IMS Programs in Vancouver
This is a system
for the diagnosis and treatment of myofascial pain syndromes ( chronic pain
conditions that occur in the musculoskeletal system when there is no obvious
sign of injury or inflammation). The treatment, which utilizes acupuncture
needles because they are the thinnest implements available that are designed to
penetrate deep within muscle tissue, specifically targets injured muscles that
have contracted and become shortened from distress. The goal is to release the
tightened or shortened muscle band/ fiber which presses on and irritates the
nerve.
We offer both
IMS and Anatomical Acupuncture here at Compass depending on the needs of the patient.
