At The Wellness Center PDX, experience the transformative benefits of acupuncture, a key component of Traditional Chinese Medicine (TCM). This ancient practice often prompts the question: “Does acupuncture work?” We invite you to explore this for yourself, as we offer acupuncture as a complementary and alternative approach to Western medicine. Our team of licensed acupuncturists, with extensive training ranging from master’s to doctorate level, strive to provide personalized care to effectively address a diverse range of health concerns. Discover the potential of acupuncture and its role in promoting overall wellness.
Discover the soothing and nearly painless process of inserting ultra-thin, sterile stainless steel needles into specific trigger points on your skin. Acupuncture, an ancient practice refined over centuries, not only activates your body’s innate healing abilities but also incorporates the principles of Traditional Chinese Medicine (TCM). These trigger points, which may be located away from the specific area of concern, contribute significantly to fostering overall harmony and health. Moreover, to amplify the advantages, the treatment may be accompanied by gentle heat or mild electrical stimulation.
Acupuncture comes highly recommended for effectively managing chronic pain. However, its benefits extend beyond that, providing relief for a range of conditions. These conditions include post-injury recovery, tension headaches, and migraines. Notably, our patients have experienced significant benefits from this treatment in cases of whiplash, as well as discomfort in the back, neck, and shoulders, along with sports-related knee injuries. Furthermore, conditions like carpal tunnel syndrome and fibromyalgia have displayed positive responses to acupuncture therapy.
During your first session, our acupuncturist will have an in-depth discussion with you about your health concerns and treatment objectives. They will also guide you through the entire process. In subsequent sessions, you can expect a tranquil and soothing experience as the acupuncturist skillfully positions the needles in the designated points. Additionally, the duration of each treatment may vary, but it typically lasts between 15 to 20 minutes. After the session, many patients often experience a profound sense of relaxation, sometimes leading to a refreshing nap.
