Whether you are needing to overcome an injury, trying to promote recovery or wanting to enhance performance, acupuncture can prove to provide the competitive advantage you are looking for. Our sports acupuncturists aim to bring the body back to balance by understanding the compensation patterns presenting with each sports-specific movement and injury. This allows them to assist with injury prevention, optimal performance, and faster recovery.
Traditional Chinese medicine is a system of medicine partly based on the idea that an energy, called qi (“chi”), flows along pathways in the body called meridians. In this belief, if the flow of qi along these meridians is blocked or unbalanced, illness can occur. By targeting pressure points linked to our internal organs through our body’s meridians, we can stimulate these internal organs to assist with healing by restoring our body’s qi balance.
