What Is Acupuncture?

Have you heard of acupuncture but aren’t sure exactly what is involved? You’re not alone. There are a lot of misconceptions out there about acupuncture and we’d like to clear a few things up.

  • Acupuncture is painful – This seems to be based on a fear of needles. While that fear is real, the pain is not. The needles used are about the width of a strand of hair.
  • Acupuncture doesn’t work – Acupuncture was helping people long before western medicine. It does not involve harmful chemicals and has been proven to provide relief to many symptoms.
  • Acupuncture is expensive – Acupuncture is becoming recognized by more and more healthcare professionals and insurance companies are starting to see the benefits of including it in their plans.
  • Acupuncture is addictive – Although some patients will need a few sessions to gain the maximum benefits of acupuncture in The Villages, it is not addictive. Quite oppositely, acupuncture can often help curb other addictions like smoking or alcohol.

What Is Acupuncture

These are just a few of the many things that acupuncture can help with. If you feel like you might benefit from acupuncture, but you’re still asking yourself “What is acupuncture?”, please contact us today for more information or to schedule an appointment with the doctor. We are happy to be a part of your healthcare team and we look forward to your next visit.

Acupuncture For Headaches

Acupuncture For Headaches

Why Should You Try Acupuncture?

Many of us suffer from routine headaches or very painful acute headaches. If you’re someone who has been suffering in silence, it’s time to speak up! There are options to reduce the severity, occurrences and symptoms of your headaches.

ACUPUNCTURE CAN HELP MANAGE AND REDUCE HEADACHES

A 2016 review published by the American Headache Society found that acupuncture can be part of a treatment plan for people suffering from migraines, tension type headaches, and other types of chronic headaches.

Another 2016 Cochrane review showed that “adding acupuncture to routine care or treatment of acute headaches reduces the frequency of headaches in the short term (three months).”

Many people simply take OTC meds such as Tylenol or Ibuprofen to combat their headaches. These may be effective in the short term, but they can lead to much worse effects in long term usage. Acetaminophen (Tylenol) is the leading cause of acute liver failure in the United States. Long term or heavy use of Ibuprofen and Naproxen can cause chronic kidney disease known as chronic interstitial nephritis. Your headaches are bad enough without having to worry about side effects from the pills you’re taking to alleviate them! The good news is that this doesn’t have to be the case. Don’t continue to “deal with” the painful aches, try acupuncture for yourself and get the relief you’ve been needing.

If you think you or someone you know might benefit from acupuncture, call or email us today to learn more or to schedule your visit. You can reach us at:

Acupuncture For Tight Muscles

Acupuncture for tight muscles

HOW DO YOU RELEASE MUSCLES AND TRIGGER POINTS WITH ACUPUNCTURE?

Acupuncture for tight muscles releases trigger points by finding the most tender and tight band of muscle and using an acupuncture needle to poke the muscle and get it to involuntarily contract. Releasing a trigger point gets the muscle out of the shortened state and usually, after a few contractions, it softens and remains in a more elongated and relaxed state. As an acupuncturist, Dr. Perry can feel the resistance at the needle soften as trigger points and muscles are being released. Some patients describe the feeling as “popping a tension bubble” or “melting away tightness and tension.” 

Acupuncture for tight muscles

Some trigger point conditions may resolve in one treatment while others may need five or more treatments for the muscle to reprogram itself. If it is a chronic condition and there are ongoing lifestyle factors that contribute to the issue it can take more time or reoccur if treatment is not frequent enough. There can be soreness in the muscle for up to 72 hours after trigger point release that feels like the muscle soreness after a workout. 

It is recommended to apply warmth and engage in gentle movements in the days following trigger point release to help reduce soreness and promote blood circulation in the affected area. When a muscle is pain-free and unrestricted, it can move in its full range of motion will helps the body’s structural alignment.

Filling:

1/2 stick (4 tablespoons) unsalted butter, melted, plus more for buttering the baking dish

3 to 4 large sweet potatoes (about 1 3/4 pounds), peeled and cubed

1/2 cup milk

1/4 cup brown sugar, packed

1 teaspoon pure vanilla extract

1/2 teaspoon kosher salt

  1. For the sweet potatoes: Add 1 3/4 pounds peeled and cubed sweet potatoes to a large pot of salted water. Bring to a boil over high heat, then lower the heat to a simmer and cook until the potatoes are very tender, 15 to 20 minutes. Drain and cool. Mash the sweet potatoes.
  2. For the filling: Preheat the oven to 350 degrees F. Butter a 2-quart baking dish.
  3. Whisk together the butter, mashed sweet potatoes, milk, brown sugar, vanilla, salt and eggs in a large bowl. Transfer to the prepared baking dish.
