Acupuncture for Pain Relief in Boulder and Broomfield, Colorado

Pain Medicine

Acupuncture is a complementary therapy that is being increasingly used in the day-to-day management of pain, especially as western doctors are not eager to find a drug-free approach to pain treatment in light of the dangers of opioids. In 1996, the FDA gave acupuncture its first U.S. seal of approval, when it classified acupuncture needles as medical devices. In the 20 years since, study after study indicates that acupuncture does indeed work.

Many people experience day-to-day pains and chronic pain issues, and whether it’s from being on a computer all day, inflammation-related or injury—acupuncture serves to effectively treat pain. Acupuncture also helps with menstrual cramps, headaches, and more.

Acupuncture for pain management works by activating the body’s own self-healing mechanism—and that’s the main goal of acupuncture: self-healing. Modern Western physicians are now promoting acupuncture as an important part of a comprehensive approach to support all health and healing issues.

Acupuncture originated in China over 3000 years ago and is practiced worldwide.

Pain Medicine

How does acupuncture work for pain management?

Fine needles are inserted into body locations known as “acupoints.” The presence of a foreign body (the needle) acts to stimulate vascular and immunomodulatory factors, including those of local inflammation. In causing minor trauma to an area of the body, this increases local blood flow to the surrounding area, which initiates the healing process.

Needling also affects the cerebrospinal fluid (CSF) concentrations of the naturally occurring opiate substances: dynorphin, endorphin and enkephalin. Endorphins and enkephalins are potent blockers or modulators of pain arising from the musculoskeletal system.

We use needles, massage, cupping and electrical stimulation techniques to heal damaged tissue (muscles, tendons, and ligaments). You will also receive home therapy advice to help with the healing process. This includes stretches, posture analysis and other therapies you can do at home and in the office to correct your condition and stop future issues from arising.

Many people come to the clinic under the assumption that they need surgery based on their doctor’s assessment. What we find is that most of these patients do not need surgery—and that acupuncture and related modalities fix the issue and return you to your daily life pain-free.

    Dry Needling

    Dry needling is a technique I use to treat myofascial pain. The technique uses a “dry” needle inserted through the skin into strategic points on the body known as trigger points. This technique is incredibly helpful for pain management overall.
