Did you know that there's more to acupuncture than just basic needlework? Imagine combining electric stimulation therapy with the relaxing benefits of acupuncture. The result is a treatment that reduces muscle fatigue, hastens healing, and has the potential to improve a variety of medical conditions. At Hauser Chiropractic of Palos Heights, IL, Dr. Kevin Hauser helps patients achieve amazing results through natural chiropractic approaches including electrical acupuncture.
Acupuncture vs. Electrical Acupuncture
Acupuncture has been used to treat countless conditions for over a thousand years. In modern times, we've incorporated new technology into our practice to enhance acupuncture's scope and effectiveness. As a process, it's easy, requires minimal resources, and is mostly painless. Thin metal needles are inserted into trigger points on the body. With electrical acupuncture, a safe electric current is passed through the needle into the body. This has the added benefit of stimulating the surrounding nerves and tissues.
Benefits of Electrical Acupuncture
There are several notable benefits to electrical acupuncture, including the fact that it's generally much quicker than traditional acupuncture. That's because the electricity ensures the acupuncture trigger point is properly stimulated, whereas Dr. Hauser would have to do that manually in other treatments. It also encourages the body to produce endorphins and other compounds that speed up healing and relieve inflammation. At Hauser Chiropractic Care of Palos Heights, IL, we strive to give our patients quick and high-quality care.
