Acupuncture

At Poke Acupuncture, we understand that not all acupuncture is the same. We prioritize our patients needs by offering a range of acupuncture styles to ensure they receive the best possible treatment for their specific conditions.

During your assessment, our practitioners will work closely with you to determine the most suitable style of acupuncture to achieve your goals effectively.

Chinese Acupuncture

The most well-known form of Chinese Medicine therapy, involves the insertion of hair-thin, sterile, single-use steel needles into precise muscular points and acupuncture points throughout the body. Research has demonstrated that acupuncture can stimulate the production and circulation of stem cells, as well as promote the release of pain-relieving chemicals called neuropeptides. This means that acupuncture can potentially expedite injury recovery, reduce inflammation, and alleviate pain.

Neurofunctional Acupuncture 

A modern style of acupuncture that focuses on targeting specific areas within a muscle known as "Motor Points." These points are where the motor nerve, responsible for muscle contraction and relaxation, connects with the muscle itself. By utilizing Neurofunctional acupuncture, our practitioners can effectively address issues related to pain, mobility, and posture.

Electro-acupuncture

Also known as "e-stim," is another modern technique that we offer. It involves the insertion of thin needles into specific acupoints and tight muscles, similar to traditional acupuncture. The key distinction is that these needles are connected to a device that generates a gentle pulse, stimulating the muscle. Numerous studies have demonstrated that electro-acupuncture can significantly alleviate pain associated with inflammation and neuropathy. 

At Poke Acupuncture, our focus is on providing personalized treatment options for our customers. We recognize that each individual has unique needs and conditions, and our diverse range of acupuncture styles ensures that we can tailor our approach to suit each patients specific requirements.
