Learn More About Oakville Acupuncture
Acupuncture treatment is an integral part of Traditional Chinese Medicine, and has been adapted by western medicine to treat muscle and joint conditions. Our Oakville acupuncture treatment provider Dr. Jenn stimulates specific points on the body to relieve pain in both the area of the needling and areas further away.
Steps To Acupuncture Treatment Oakville
During an acupuncture treatment session in Oakville, thin metallic needles are used to penetrate the skin at specific locations in the body. Some insertions are shallow (1-2cm) and other insertions through thicker tissues (like the glutes) can be deeper. Dr. Jenn is an expert in acupuncture and trained extensively in human anatomy to identify the specific acupuncture points, which are commonly points in the body where nerves run closer to the surface. Needles can be placed directly into the painful area but can also be inserted in an area where you may not be experiencing pain. In these instances, the practitioner is targeting nerves that may be contributing to pain at a more distant location.
Most patients describe the sensation as a small prick when the needle is inserted. Dr. Jenn says, insertions through tight musculature can be mildly achy, but should never be painful. With each treatment session the acupuncture Oakville team typically insert between 5 to 20 needles which are left in the body for 10-20 minutes. Dr. Jenn may apply electrical pulses to the needles or manually twist the needles to create a greater effect. Some people notice an improvement after their first acupuncture treatment session. For others it takes two or three acupuncture treatment sessions to notice an improvement in their symptoms. Everybody responds differently!
Our acupuncture treatment can be directly billed through most insurance companies under chiropractic treatment.
