QualityAcu is a pain treatment center in Orange, CA, that takes a different approach to treating chronic pain symptoms. We offer patients acupuncture and other therapies based on traditional Chinese medicine practices. Our treatments go beyond just treating your symptoms; we want to address the issues that are causing your pain and restore health and vitality.
Acupuncture has been used for thousands of years to treat a variety of medical conditions. Originating in ancient China, acupuncture involves the insertion of needles at specific points on the body called meridians. The needles are placed just below the skin and are specially designed to cause a minimum of discomfort.
According to traditional Chinese medicine, the needles relieve pain by restoring balance to the flow of vital energy, or “Qi” (pronounced “chee”), through the body. Today, acupuncture is also used to promote healing by improving blood flow and stimulating the body’s natural healing responses. It also causes the release of endorphins and other chemicals that help reduce pain.
Acupuncture manages pain by:
- Stimulating the release of endorphins, the body’s natural pain-relief chemicals.
- Reducing inflammation by affecting the body’s immune and endocrine systems, resulting in decreased swelling and pain.
- Increasing blood circulation to the affected areas, enhancing the delivery of oxygen and nutrients while removing metabolic waste products
- Modulating pain signals, either by dampening pain signals or blocking them from reaching the brain.
- Restoring balance to the body’s Qi.
- Relieving muscle tension by encouraging the relaxation of tight or knotted muscles.
- Reducing stress levels
