Sports Acupuncture
SHÈN offers a variety of acupuncture treatments, including a sports medicine focused approach. This type of acupuncture can be used to treat a specific injury, for post-surgical rehabilitation, or to address chronic pain. Sports acupuncture is the perfect tool for athletes and outdoor enthusiasts looking to both optimize performance and prevent injury.
What to Expect
Very fine needles are placed at precise points to stimulate your body’s natural healing response. In addition to acupuncture, we often use cupping, electrical stimulation, gua sha, or herbal supplements to enhance treatment.
Combined with these other modalities, acupuncture increases circulation, decreases inflammation, and speeds up recovery time.
Who It’s For
Sports acupuncture is well-suited for clients recovering from:
- Acute or overuse injuries
- Surgery or joint replacement
- Muscle tightness and limited range of motion
- Chronic conditions like tendonitis or low back pain
It’s also used as a preventative tool by athletes and active individuals working to stay mobile, balanced, and pain-free.
