In addition to acupuncture, we use many other techniques and modalities to increase efficacy and speed recovery. Pharmaceutical grade nutritional supplements and herbal medicines are prescribed internally to decrease inflammation, decrease pain, and accelerate tissue healing. Herbal soaks and plasters are utilized to speed tendon, ligament, and bone healing. Manual therapy, orthopedic massage techniques, and therapeutic exercise are also used when indicated. Furthermore, there are many Western medical doctors that we refer to when necessary.
