Treatment for Repetitive Strain Injuries
Repetitive strain is among the conditions that responds very well to treatment with acupuncture. Pain, inflammation and constriction around the area of strain can all be reduced or even eliminated with a single treatment and repeated treatments can help prevent a recurrence of the injury.
One patient, a musician, came to me with a case of repetitive so debilitating that he was confined to bed. After a single treatment with needles and moxabustion, the patient was able to return to work. He was amazed at the quick reduction in pain and restoration of flexibility resulting from the treatment.
