Did You Know… Acupuncture Helps Arthritis

In the United States, 24% of all adults, or 58.5 million people, have arthritis. It is a leading cause of work disability, with annual costs for medical care and lost earnings of $303.5 billion. The most common form of arthritis is osteoarthritis.

For over 12 years, our medical director Laura Parks has been successfully treating arthritis in many forms, from arthritis in the hands, to the knees, to the spine, with over a 90% success rate she’s got it down to a science.

In fact, many acupuncturists locally as well as around the country have come to study with Mrs. Parks to see how she uses the combination of an ancient form of medicine called acupuncture with ozone therapy.

Ozone fully oxygenates any cell or tissue it comes into contact with. When this happens, mutated cells or dead red blood cells that are only holding onto toxins and inflammation are easily discarded via the lymphatic system.

Newly oxygenated cells help to provide cellular repair and reverse oxidative damage. Ozone helps to permanently improve arthritis, improving pain and restoring range of motion of the joints.

Treating Sciatica Pain with Acupuncture

Treating Sciatica Pain with Acupuncture

Anyone who has suffered from sciatic nerve pain can tell you it can be a very debilitating condition. It is typically caused by an impingement of the sciatic nerve in the lower back but the pain is actually felt radiating down the leg and in the buttock. There are several potential causes of sciatic pain including:

  • Degenerative disc disease
  • Lumbar spinal stenosis
  • Spondylolisthesis
  • Pregnancy
  • Herniated lumbar disc (also known as a slipped disc)

Acupuncture is one of the most gentle and effective treatment options. Traditional medicine may prescribe medication to deal with the pain caused by sciatica but acupuncture is a drug-free option that treats the issue and not just the symptom. continue reading »

Ozone also kills viruses, bacteria, mold, fungus it comes in contact with. Clinically, we use ozone to fully oxygenate cells in conditions that are caused by perceived natural physical decline associated with aging, like Arthritis or Neuropathy. We also see many benefits to using ozone with autoimmune conditions, like Fibromyalgia, Epstein Barr Virus, and Long Haul Covid.

Acupuncture for Better Circulation

Acupuncture for Better Circulation

Perhaps the greatest benefit of acupuncture is that this form of medicine has been practiced for thousands of years and has been specifically used to increase circulation for centuries. At the bedrock of this medicine are the techniques used to stimulate sympathetic responses resulting in blood vessel dilation and increased blood flow. Maybe a simpler way of explaining it is to say acupuncture stimulates energy pathways in the body, thus enhancing blood flow. continue reading »
