Electro-acupuncture: reducing pain, stiffness and cellulite


Electro-acupuncture is a high- tech approach to an ancient medical treatment. Electro-acupuncture uses an electronic instrument called an acupunctoscope. It produces a gentle, low electric current, which is emitted in pulses. The instrument’s probes are attached to the acupuncture needles, creating deeper stimulation at the points being treated.


In my clinic, electro-acupuncture is most commonly used to treat acutely painful conditions such as sciatic pain or injuries from accidents. It maybe used for cellulite treatment, muscle stimulation, general pain relief and overall rejuvenation. Most patients do not find it painful. In fact, many highly stressed clients find that it is relaxing.
