Acupuncture can be performed as a part of sports injury treatment or during sports massage for better results. In recent years acupuncture became popular as an alternative treatment for musculoskeletal conditions and pain management. Although acupuncture is not scientifically proven, research shows that acupuncture leads to release of endorphins and changes in the processing of pain in the brain and spinal cord by stimulating nerves located in muscles and other soft tissues.

Benefits of Acupuncture:

  • Pain Relief: Acupuncture can help alleviate pain associated with sports injuries by promoting the release of endorphins, the body’s natural painkillers.

  • Reduced Inflammation: Acupuncture has been shown to have anti-inflammatory effects, helping to reduce swelling and inflammation around injured areas.

  • Enhanced Healing: Acupuncture may stimulate blood flow and improve circulation, promoting a faster healing response to sports-related injuries.

  • Muscle Relaxation: Acupuncture can aid in muscle relaxation, reducing tension and tightness in the affected areas.

  • Improved Range of Motion: By addressing muscle tightness and promoting joint flexibility, acupuncture may contribute to an improved range of motion in injured areas.

  • Reduced Scar Tissue Formation: Acupuncture may help minimise the formation of scar tissue, promoting a smoother and more efficient recovery.
