Heal your injuries and perform better!

Acupuncture has a lot to offer to athletes, both professionals and amateurs. Its efficiency in the treatment of sports injuries is well known. However, Acupuncture can also be very useful for optimizing and increasing athletic performance.

Treatment of sports injuries

Injuries are very common among athletes who, by pushing their bodies to the limit and placing themselves in accident-prone situations, are subject to a wide variety of muscle and joint injuries. Acupuncture, often combined with Tuina massage, is very beneficial in treating this type of injury. It works by decreasing pain and inflammation, increasing local circulation to promote tissue healing, releasing muscle tension and acting on muscle trigger points

Injuries we treat often at the clinic: 

  • Epicondylitis (tennis elbow)

  • Frozen shoulder

  • Shin splints

  • Rotator cuff injuries

  • Low back pain

  • Knee injuries

  • Sprains and strains of the ankle

  • Plantar Fasciitis

  • Achilles Tendonitis and bursitis

  • Wrist injuries

  • And many others...

Treatment of sports performance

Improving performance is a major concern for both amateur and professional athletes. Amidst the various ways to improve athletic performance, many consist of products banned by different sports associations or federations. More and more athletes are turning to alternative methods to improve their athletic performance. Among the approaches that have generated serious interest in recent years is acupuncture.

Here are some of the ways acupuncture can help you perform better:

Increase concentration and reduce stress

Before and during the competition, as well as during training, acupuncture can help reduce stress and anxiety, as well as improve concentration.

Decrease muscle fatigue

Acupuncture can reduce muscle fatigue and aches during and after your training

or other intense physical activity.

Support the immune system

Overtraining and overwork can negatively affect the immune system. Acupuncture can support the immune system and allow you to stay healthy and energetic.

Accelerate and improve recovery after training

The recovery period after training is of fundamental importance. It is during this period that the benefits of the training take place. Acupuncture can help shorten the recovery period to allow you to optimize your training.

Let us help you to perform better and enjoy your favorite sport even more!
