Acupuncture is a treatment that uses very thin, sterile needles placed into specific points in the body to help reduce pain, relax tight muscles, and improve how the body heals.
While acupuncture has roots in traditional medicine, modern acupuncture is widely used in sports medicine and pain management to calm the nervous system and improve blood flow to irritated or injured areas.
Electroacupuncture builds on traditional acupuncture by adding a very gentle electrical stimulation to the needles.
This stimulation helps amplify the effects of acupuncture by providing consistent input to the muscles and nerves involved in pain and healing.
Dry needling uses the same type of thin needle as acupuncture but with a different goal.
Dry needling targets tight muscle knots, also known as trigger points, that cause pain, stiffness, or limited movement. These knots can form from overuse, poor posture, or old injuries.
Shockwave therapy is a non-invasive treatment that uses high-energy sound waves to target areas of pain, stiffness, or chronic injury in your muscles, tendons, or connective tissue.
It works by: Increase blood flow to the injured area, Stimulate tissue repair and collagen production, Break up scar tissue or calcifications, Reduce chronic pain signals
Chiropractic adjustments are hands-on techniques that gently guide joints into better motion. When a joint isn’t moving as it should, it can lead to stiffness, pain, or tension in surrounding muscles and nerves. Adjustments help restore movement and function so your body can move more comfortably.
At NXT GEN Medical, we believe adjustments are valuable—but they are not the only way to help your body feel and move better.
