Pain Management
There is an alternate treatment plan available today that treats pain and sorts it out without straining your purse. This is the ancient Chinese science known as acupuncture. To get to the root cause of the problem, the licensed professional located at Columbus, OH takes into account a number of factors like the health of the individual and the cause of the problem. The professional then examines the tongue, checks the pulse, and continues checking the rest of the body for signs of any imbalance. Based on the findings, he/she will recommend a treatment plan, dependent on the extent of damage to the particular area screaming in pain.
The procedure
The person going under the needles (sterile) lies down during the procedure. Precise points are stimulated on various parts of the body. One will not feel any discomfort but when you do notice needles, you may want to look away, if you feel queasy. The needles are strategically positioned on touch points for a couple of minutes to half an hour. It has been said that people who go through this treatment, feel very relaxed and display no more pain. There is an additional stimulus applied to various regions in the body through massage, heat therapy, and the application of certain herbal remedies to sort out the problem.
Understanding the ancient Chinese science
The method of this ancient science is based on the ancient philosophy, the balance between the universe and the body, known as ying and yang. When there is an imbalanced flow between the two, the chi (energy) is sucked away, resulting in pain or other problems associated with the mind and the body. If the flow of energy is blocked because of myriad reasons, the body’s natural reactions reduce, resulting in physiological illnesses. Ample research has proven that acupuncture is a definite solution for people suffering from issues like digestive problems, less immunity, cardiovascular problems, and pain related problems.
The number of sessions
Depending on the extent of damage to various medians in the body that have caused the pain to occur, the acupuncturist may suggest a series of sessions. If you are better after one or two, that is fine, but many people suffer from acute pain, which may require a series of sessions to sort out the negative chi in the body. The licensed professional will gauge the situation and work out a personalized plan. The ancient Chinese treatment improves bodily functions and energizes the body. If required, the specialist may further enhance the treatment using an electrical stimulus that will iron out the chinks in the body.
In sum
For years on end, people have been popping pills to deal with the pain. Many insurance players have added this treatment to their list of alternative treatments. Before opting for acupuncture, cross check this with your doctor. In addition, it is essential to opt for a licensed practitioner. The last thing that one wants is someone who does not know their ying from yang. The bottom line, acupuncture with the right professional will keep you free from pain and sort out any additional problems that you suffer from.
