TCM Acupuncture and Dry Needling
Acupuncture points are believed to stimulate the central nervous system. This, in turn, releases chemicals into the muscles, spinal cord, and brain. These biochemical changes may stimulate the body's natural healing abilities and promote physical and emotional well-being.
Dry needling is focused on using strong stimulation on the muscles to get them to release.
Vestibular/Concussion
After a concussion, individuals may experience vestibular dysfunction, a disturbance in the balance system of the body. This can often lead to symptoms such as dizziness, nausea, or imbalance, just to name a few. Vestibular rehabilitation is a type of therapy that focuses on improving the relationship between the inner ear, brain, eyes, muscles and nerves. This therapy is typically used with post-concussion patients.
