Hip, Joint & Sacral Pain

At Acupuncture Herbal Clinic, acupuncture stands as a fundamental pillar in our approach to addressing pain and restoring functionality in the hip, groin, and sacrum regions. With a focus on rebalancing the flow of Qi (vital energy) throughout the body, our practitioners meticulously target specific acupuncture points associated with these areas. By doing so, we aim to address underlying imbalances contributing to pain and discomfort, particularly in cases of acute groin, sacral, and hip pain resulting from strain or injury. Through acupuncture, we effectively stimulate the release of endorphins and other natural pain-relieving chemicals, providing immediate relief and fostering the body’s innate healing mechanisms.

In our acupuncture treatments, we employ the insertion of fine needles at key meridian points along the lumbar, sacral, and groin regions. This technique facilitates improved blood circulation and reduces inflammation, crucial aspects in the healing process. Enhanced blood flow allows for the delivery of essential nutrients and oxygen to injured tissues, thereby accelerating repair and minimizing recovery time. Furthermore, the insertion of needles can trigger the release of neurotransmitters like serotonin and dopamine, which aid in modulating pain perception and promoting relaxation, enhancing the therapeutic effects of treatment.

To augment the efficacy of acupuncture, we integrate adjunctive therapies such as electrode stimulation, infrared therapy, and herbal formulas. Electrode acupuncture enhances the stimulation of targeted acupuncture points, while infrared therapy penetrates deeply into tissues to promote cellular repair and regeneration. Our selection of Chinese herbal remedies, renowned for their anti-inflammatory and analgesic properties, works synergistically with acupuncture to support the healing process comprehensively. With its multifaceted mechanisms of action, acupuncture emerges as a safe, non-invasive modality empowering individuals to regain mobility, alleviate discomfort, and optimize overall well-being at our TCM clinic.
