Acupuncture for Sports Performance

Acupuncture for Athletes

While Acupuncture and Chinese Medicine can address a wide range of health issues, our treatment program plays a special role in working with athletes to get them back on the field, in the ring, or in the sky.  With my own experience as a professional skydiver, martial-arts instructor and competitor, mountain biker, and yoga teacher, I’m no stranger to the challenges unique to competitive athletes when it comes to keeping them injury free and in top condition to compete at the highest level.  Our combination therapy of acupuncture, cupping, and cold laser therapy are incredibly effective in both reducing inflammation from injuries as well as accelerating wound healing and tissue repair.

Knee Repair Using Acupuncture and Cold Laser Therapy

Knee damage seems almost inevitable at one time or another in an athletes career.  Fortunately, our acupuncture and cold laser therapy combined therapies can be incredibly powerful to not only reduce knee pain, but also reverse cartilage damage and increase functionality.
