Acupuncture Services
Acupuncture
Acupuncture is an ancient form of alternative medicine that uses very thin needles inserted in the body. These needles are light as a feather, making the process feel virtually painless. Our acupuncture services in Michigan stimulate the central nervous system through different acupuncture points. This helps release chemicals into the brain, spinal cord, and muscles and stimulates the natural healing process. The treatment can be beneficial for both emotional and physical well-being.
Electroacupuncture
Electroacupunture uses electric current that is passed between two needles. It can help with dizziness, headaches, facial spasm, tinnitus, chorea, and more. It can also block pain by activating different bioactive chemicals in the body. This process can reduce your sensitivity to pain and helps curb inflammation. Electroacupunture is useful for patients with muscle spasms, neurological diseases, chronic pain, paralysis and more.
Cupping
Cupping is a form of therapy that uses special cups to create suction to pull the blood into the skin. It can help manage different pain conditions, promote blood flow, and reduce inflammation. Cups are often placed on the face, back, abdomen, legs, chest, and buttocks.
Cupping massage
Cupping massage is an excellent technique for stimulating lymph flow, boosting circulation, and helping mobility. Suction cups are used to create negative pressure on the surface of the skin. Once a cup is placed, they're gently moved using a wide range of techniques. Cupping helps reach deep into the soft tissue and organs. The massage increases circulation and offers comfortable sensations.

Shockwave Therapy
Shockwave therapy is a non-invasive therapy that delivers mild shock waves to injured soft tissue.
