Pain & Trauma

      Reduce pain, restore function. Enjoy the pain-free days! These are the main reason why acupuncture came to America and all around the world from China.

      Pain management is Westyo Acupuncture & Herb's specialty.  

      Pain management is a critical part of trauma care. Any kind of trauma or injury causes a disruption of qi and blood flow as well as tissue damage to the affected area. Assessing the different qualities of pain can help discern a treatment strategy best suited for an individual.

      The first objective is to help reduce the pain and assess tissue damage to help you start feeling better immediately. Depending on the severity and underlying condition causing you pain, it is typical to seek treatment more often initially. Initial treatments are followed by a restorative phase where the muscles and other tissues are allowed to heal more completely. Treatment at this time is used to help bring your body back to its normal functioning.

Acute vs. Chronic Pain 

Acute pain can stem from a sudden trauma or injury whereas chronic pain can be pain from an old injury or pain that has resulted from extended overuse. Usually, there is an emotional component in chronic pain. The treatment strategies for pain can vary based on an individual body constitution and the response to treatment. Pain can be caused by qi obstruction, lack of qi blood flow, blood stasis, and tissue damage.
