Knee pain can be debilitating, affecting daily activities such as walking, climbing stairs, or standing for extended periods. Our acupuncture treatments for knee issues—whether due to arthritis, injury, or overuse—reduce inflammation, increase synovial fluid circulation, and improve range of motion. We often integrate adjunctive therapies, such as natural injections, microcurrent, herbal medicine, electrical stimulation, and herbal liniments, to achieve enhanced outcomes.

Plantar fasciitis presents as stabbing heel pain, often worst in the morning. Acupuncture is highly effective in managing this condition by targeting the fascia, reducing inflammation, and increasing blood flow to the heel and arch of the foot. Many patients report substantial improvement after just a few treatments, avoiding the need for steroid injections or orthotics.

Sciatica is characterized by a shooting pain that radiates from the lower back down the leg. Our targeted acupuncture approach helps calm the sciatic nerve by addressing trigger points in the gluteal muscles, the piriformis muscle, and the lumbar spine. With consistent treatments, we reduce nerve irritation and improve functional movement, making daily activities more manageable and less painful.

One of the most powerful benefits of orthopedic acupuncture is its ability to help patients delay or avoid surgery. By addressing the root causes of pain and dysfunction—whether structural imbalance, nerve impingement, or muscular tightness—many patients achieve long-term relief and improved function without undergoing surgery.

For patients who have undergone surgery, acupuncture supports recovery by reducing post-operative pain, minimizing inflammation, and accelerating tissue healing. It also helps decrease reliance on pain medications and improves outcomes when integrated into a physical therapy or rehabilitation plan. Our treatments focus on enhancing circulation to the affected area and restoring normal muscle function.
