Athletes are beckoned to maximize their physical, mental and emotional endurance. Whether a current or former athlete, a weekend warrior, a coach or someone who likes to stay in shape, there are those times when one’s body is pushed to per- form, honing skills and technique, building a healthier, stronger, faster and more agile you!

Sports Medicine Acupuncturists can help any type of acute and chronic pain and injuries no matter how it happened, whether it comes from falling on a patch of ice, off a ladder, bending over to pick up a shoe. All ages can benefit from this modality—young and old(er!) to ensure optimal health.

This medicine has a broader history as it has taken root in many other countries and other techniques have been developed in Japan, Korea, Vietnam, France, and most recently, the U.S. Acupuncture is only one modality within Oriental Medicine.
