Chronic pain is one of the worst experiences one can endure. It’s even worse when no amount of medication or trips to the doctor seem to help –– and, even worse, when you start to feel like people are doubting or not taking your symptoms seriously. But us at Greg Maruki Acupuncture are experts in pain management –– our secret is using alternative medicine that delivers results. Let us tell you more.
What alternative medicine can do for you
There is a lot that alternative medicine can do for you. People all over the world use different forms to manage ailments that vary from small to big –– from allergies, migraines, fertility treatments and everything in between. And while alternative medicine can sometimes get a bad reputation, the truth is that some of these practices date back thousands of years and have been delivering results since then. You can read our testimonials and see how our services have been providing results to countless of thankful clients for years.
There are many types of alternative medicine, but we are going to focus on acupuncture and percussion therapy in this blog post. Both of these practices are great at helping you manage pain problems. Let us explain why.
Acupuncture
Acupuncture is an ancient Chinese type of medicine consisting of inserting small, painless needles into the skin. These needles are not inserted randomly. Rather, they are used strategically to target specific body parts. One of the benefits of acupuncture is that it can increase blood flow, improve organ function, and reduce inflammation, all of which can in turn help make your pain go away, or at least make it more bearable.
Percussion therapy
Percussion therapy is less known than acupuncture, but it can also deliver results just as reliable and healing.
Percussion therapy uses mechanic vibrations to break down muscle tension and tightness at the deepest layers of our muscles. Oftentimes, the reason we feel pain is because we have knots in our muscles, which is why undoing these knots can be good for you. Here at Greg Maruki, our percussion equipment can deliver up to 2,800 percussions or vibrations per minute, which also has the effect of stimulating oxygen flow to the areas being treated.
