What is Acupuncture and How Does it Work?
Acupuncture works by activating the body’s self-healing by eliciting a neurotransmitter response. Think about when you get a cut or scrape, you will notice the site of the injury immediately becoming inflamed or red, this is due to blood rushing to the area, or vasodilating, to help repair damaged tissue and fight off bacteria. This is why acupuncture can address so many different conditions-everything from irritable bowel syndrome to back pain to the side effects of chemotherapy. The body is activating it’s capacity to self-heal.
If you come in for pain relief, not only will you notice the pain dissipate, but side effects like heartburn or migraines may also go away. This ancient form of healing capitalizes on the body’s ability to self-heal through a complex system known as the meridians. When the meridians are weak or deficient, illness can arise. Chinese medicine looks at the health of the whole body, addresses the root of the disharmony, and works to correct that to bring the body back to a state of balance. Abby fuses this ancient wisdom, with current biomedical knowledge in anatomy and physiology. She uses motor points of muscles to release them, this technique is often referred to as “dry needling”. She relaxes trigger points, innervate nerves, and capitalizes on the body’s self healing mechanism with neurofunctional acupuncture. A true western and eastern collaboration to get you feeling your best.

About Dry Needling
Dry needling is a minimally invasive treatment that uses thin, solid needles to target myofascial trigger points. Trigger points are taut bands of muscle that can cause pain, tenderness, and limited range of motion. Dry needling works by stimulating the muscles and connective tissue by releasing trigger and motor points in muscles that cause pain and tenderness. Some examples of pain elicited by a trigger point are headaches, muscle spasms and tension, and plantar fasciitis.
