Acupuncture for Headaches and Migraines
Do you often wake up with a headache or migraine? Have you tried over-the-counter medications, but they don't seem to help? If you're looking for effective relief, our team at Infinity Chiropractic Wellness Center offers acupuncture services that can help.
Dr. Gary Szitanko is a highly experienced and certified chiropractor who offers natural solutions to headaches, migraines, and a variety of other conditions. He frequently uses acupuncture as part of a patient's treatment plan because it is a drug-free way to provide pain relief.
How Acupuncture Works
Acupuncture is based on the belief that there is an energy flow within the body that must be in balance for optimal health. This energy flow is called Qi (pronounced "chee"), and when it's blocked or unbalanced, it can lead to pain or illness. The goal of acupuncture is to release the blockages and restore balance so that the body can heal itself naturally.
One of the common ways that Qi becomes blocked is through the build-up of stress. When you are stressed, your muscles tense up, and your breathing becomes shallow. This causes the Qi to become stagnant and can lead to headaches and migraines. Acupuncture helps release the tension and allows the Qi to flow freely again.
Acupuncture for Pain Management
One of the most common reasons people seek acupuncture is for pain management. From joint pain to back pain, neck pain, and everything in between, acupuncture has been proven to be an effective form of pain relief. If you are looking for an alternative to traditional pain medication, acupuncture may be the right choice for you.
Other Conditions Treated with Acupuncture
Acupuncture is not just for pain management. Acupuncture has also been shown to be effective in treating a variety of other conditions, such as:
- Anxiety and depression
- Migraines and tension headaches
- Stress
- Digestive issues
- Menopause symptoms
These are just some of the conditions chiropractors treat with acupuncture. However, this is not an exhaustive list and there is so much more. You should consult with our chiropractor in Red Bank to discover what acupuncture can do for you.
