You are reading this blog title probably thinking about your high school band days –– that’s not the type of percussion we are talking about. Instead, what we are talking about is kind of alternative medicine that uses different vibrations to alleviate pain and help muscles recover. Think of it as physical therapy but with a fun, quirky twist. And if you are in Orange, California or surrounding areas, we can’t recommend Greg Maruki enough. Let us tell you why.
What is percussion therapy?
Percussion therapy is a type of mechanical vibration that breaks down muscle tension in the deepest layer of our bodies. Percussion therapy targets the muscle tissue at 2,800 percussions per minute to stimulate rich blood and oxygen flow in the area that is being treated.
Think of it as a the ultimate deep-tissue massage. And if you’re worried about the number of permissions per minute, rest assured that percussion therapy is painless. The best part? It has a proven record of delivering results across people of different needs.
What is percussion therapy good for?
The most popular use of percussion therapy is for the treatment of muscle pain and soreness. Whether you injured yourself at the gym or your back is just getting old (hey, it happens to all of us!), this form of alternative medicine can be a fun, great way to avail yourself of the help your body needs.
The following list includes some of the most common reasons people turn to percussion therapy:
- Shin splits
- Carpal tunnel syndrome
- Herniated/bulging discis
- Muscle cramps
- Muscle spasms
Where can you find percussion therapy?
Your best option in the Orange area is without a doubt Greg Maruki. He’s a professional acupuncturist with years of experience in the game and countless satisfied customers to back him up.
And while you are at his office, we also recommend checking out some of the other services he offers, including acupuncture and cupping therapy. Acupuncture, for example, is the strategic insertion of tiny needles to stimulate oxygen flow in the blood. Cupping therapy –– which involves using warm cups to suction the skin –– serves a similar purpose.
Greg Maruki’s office might be able to work with your insurance provider to cover the costs of your treatment. Either way, his prices are affordable and well worth the cost. If you are in pain, you understand that your comfort and relief are priceless, but they shouldn’t cost you an arm and a leg. Like we said, you really can’t go wrong with Greg Maruki. Give him a call today: 714-532-2827.
