Acupuncture Q & A

What conditions can acupuncture help with?

Acupuncture is a versatile therapy used to address a wide range of health concerns. At Chiropractic Rehabilitation and Acupuncture, Dr. Ferguson provides acupuncture treatments for:

Chronic back and neck pain
Headaches and migraines
Sciatica and nerve pain
Arthritis and joint stiffness
Muscle tightness and sports injuries
Stress, fatigue, and anxiety

Many patients also seek acupuncture to support recovery after accidents, improve sleep quality, or enhance overall wellness. Because it focuses on restoring balance throughout the body, acupuncture can benefit both acute and chronic conditions.

How does acupuncture work?

Acupuncture is based on the principle of stimulating the body’s natural healing mechanisms. By inserting very fine needles into specific points, acupuncture increases blood flow, reduces inflammation, and triggers the release of endorphins—the body’s natural painkillers.

Modern research also shows that acupuncture can calm the nervous system, helping patients feel relaxed and refreshed after each session. Treatments are designed to be gentle, restorative, and personalized to your specific needs.

Why choose acupuncture for pain relief and wellness?

Unlike medications that may only mask symptoms, acupuncture aims to correct the underlying imbalance contributing to pain or dysfunction. Many patients experience not only pain relief but also improvements in energy, mood, and resilience. When combined with chiropractic care, acupuncture can enhance treatment outcomes by supporting both structural alignment and energetic balance, creating a holistic path to healing.

What can I expect during a session?

During your first visit, Dr. Ferguson will review your health history and discuss your symptoms and goals. Treatment involves gently placing thin, sterile needles at targeted points. Most patients feel little to no discomfort—often describing the experience as calming or restorative. Needles typically remain in place for 15–30 minutes while you rest. Afterward, many patients report reduced pain, improved flexibility, or a deep sense of relaxation.
