According to Chinese Medicine, arthritis is a blockage of the smooth flow of energy and blood through the joints.  Arthritic pain is an indication of a blockage.

Modern scientific research has shown that Acupuncture can be effective in stimulating the production of endorphins and an anti-inflammatory hormone called adrenalcorticotropin.

In the early stages of treatment, acupuncture needles are used to trigger the release of the body’s healing energies. Once the pain has been managed, treatment is then used on an ongoing basis to prevent the reoccurrence of arthritis.
