ACUPUNCTURE TREATMENT FOR TENDONITIS

96712 HALEIWA Acupuncture Clinic for Tendonitis Treatment Dr. Annie Yang - Honolulu OAHU

WHAT IS TENDONITIS?

Tendons are robust connective tissue cords that link muscles to bones. Tendonitis, also known as tendinitis, is a condition where a tendon becomes inflamed and irritated, typically leading to swelling, pain, and discomfort. This condition is most commonly triggered by repetitive movements over time, but it can also result from an injury or other health issues, such as arthritis.

You might be familiar with Golfer's elbow or Tennis elbow, both of which are forms of tendonitis that can develop from playing these sports. In each situation, the pain occurs at the elbow and is caused by repetitive arm movements, which also involve vibration or impact when the golf club or tennis racket strikes the ball.

CAN ACUPUNCTURE HELP WITH TENDONITIS?

Repetitive activities such as tennis, gardening, or reaching overhead can lead to tendonitis, which causes persistent pain or discomfort that worsens with certain movements and may involve swelling.

Not all activities that result in tendonitis involve impact, and they aren't limited to the elbow. Tenditis can affect any tendon, but it most commonly impacts the elbow, knee, shoulder, hip, and Achilles tendon. A condition, tenosynovitis, can also affect the fingers. Signs that you may have tendonitis include:

GRATING SENSATION DURING MOVEMENT

SWELLING AND TENDERNESS

Acupuncture is a safe and effective non-invasive treatment for many people suffering from tendon. It can help shorten recovery time, relieve pain, and improve mobility. The length frequency of treatments depend on each patient's unique circumstances and are related to how long the condition has persisted.

BENEFITS OF ACUPUNCTURE TREATMENT FOR TENDONITIS

Rest is important for tendonitis, but relying only on it may prolong recovery. Tendons have less blood flow than muscles, slowing healing. Acupuncture can significantly shorten recovery time, helping you resume activities. Here are some ways it does this:

TRIGGERS THE BODY TO RELEASE ENDOGENOUS PAINKILLERS LIKE ENDORPHINS FOR LOCAL AND WHOLE-BODY PAIN RELIEF

TRIGGERS THE BODY TO RELEASE POWERFUL ANTI-INFLAMMATORY AGENTS

IMPROVES CIRCULATION TO DAMAGED TENDONS AND OTHER TISSUES IN AND NEAR THE JOINT

RELEASES TRIGGER POINTS AND ADHESIONS IN NEARBY MUSCLES TO RELIEVE TENSION ON THE AFFECTED TENDON AND IMPROVE MOVEMENT PATTERNS

Tendonitis may necessitate a pause on activities that you love or are vital to your daily routine. At OAHU Acupuncture Clinic in 'Aiea, Honolulu, our experienced acupuncturist, Dr. Annie Yang 杨, specializes in managing chronic pain. She helps patients relieve tendonitis discomfort, regain movement and, and, crucially, return to activities they had to put on hold.

THE HOLISTIC APPROACH TO TENDONITIS

Acupuncture can be a helpful complementary therapy for tendonitis, offering pain relief, reduced inflammation, and improved circulation. By targeting specific points, it may trigger natural pain relievers and enhance blood flow to the tendon, aiding healing.

Tendonitis can affect anyone, especially athletes and those with repetitive jobs. Many seek both traditional and alternative treatments, with acupuncture gaining attention for its effectiveness.

HOW DOES ACUPUNCTURE RELIEVE SYMPTOMS OF TENDONITIS?

Acupuncture alleviates the symptoms of tendonitis through several mechanisms.

It activates the nervous system to release chemical compounds such as endorphins in the brain, spinal cord, and muscles. These chemicals change the perception of pain and enhance a feeling of well-being.

Acupuncture possesses anti-inflammatory properties. It stimulates the release of vascular and immunomodulatory factors that aid in reducing swelling and inflammation around the affected tendon.

It improves blood flow to the region surrounding the inserted needles, facilitating healing and recovery by delivering more oxygen and nutrients to the inflamed tissues.

If you think you have tendonitis and want to explore acupuncture, start with a free consultation at OAHU Acupuncture Clinic in 'Aiea Honolulu. You'll meet our licensed acupuncturist, Dr. Annie Yang 杨, to discuss your health history and see if treatments are right for you.
