Acupuncture / tuina for shoulder pain/ back pain/ muscle injury after work out in gym

Patient after weight lifting, had pain all the way through his left back and shoulder, difficulties to rise arms.

We found out the trigger point is from his back, so called “supraspinatus tendonitis”, which people often misunderstood it as dearticulation, or joint sprain. Before any acupuncture treatment, precise diagnosis is prerequisite, therefore, we could target the main reason in efficient strategy.

After acupuncture and tuina therapy, the patient could rise his arm and move his shoulder without pain.

In the gym, there are common injuries after work out, for weightlifting such as strained lumbar muscle, dorsal muscle, and deltoid which causing back pain, shoulder pain, arm pain; for treadmill such as vastus lateralis muscle which causing knee pain, plantar fasciitis( feet pain) , and Achilles tendon injuries( heel pain).

For concerns, proper warm up before work out is necessary, suitable sport shoes, and never gain the weight once too much while doing weightlifting.

After gym activities, not only for injury, acupuncture treatment could also relax the tightened muscles and continue the circulation and metabolism to the best effects of burning calories.
