Acupuncture and Strength Training

Exercise is a crucial aspect of optimizing our health and longevity. As we age, strength training becomes very important. After 40 years old, we begin to lose muscle mass, bones become fragile and joints stiffen. We need to add strength training to our routine at this point or there is a time when one cannot regain muscle mass that has been lost.

BE STRONG

When we are strength training, often times our muscles become strong but short and tight so that range of motion is not optimal and injury can easily occur. This is where Acupuncture comes in. Acupuncture can help ease tight muscles and allow them to become strong and long so that range of motion is ideal, decreasing inflammation and pain. Adding a stretching routine helps even further in keeping your muscles supple and lean.

This includes a full Acupuncture treatment and then 20 minutes of instruction on specific stretching techniques for your pain or injury.
