Acupuncture for pain relief now available at Athenry Holistic Health

Athenry Holistic Health is now offering acupuncture and InterX therapy as part of a unique combination for the treatment of all kinds of musculoskeletal pain, ranging from back pain to sport injuries.

The InterX is an electrical device that provides interactive neurostimulation. It sends pulses through the skin at the area of damage/trauma and stimulates a variety of nerve endings to pass the information to the central nervous system, where all the regulatory processes are taking place. By releasing the body’s own biochemicals such as endorphins and dopamine, both powerful natural painkillers, the body continues to work on pain and repairs the injury.

In general, the outcome of the treatment is that the patient feels less pain, ‘grounded’, warm, and with a sense of wellbeing.

Acupuncture is widely known to treat many conditions other than pain. Bernie Ryan, an experienced acupuncturist, confirms it is particularly effective at treating many gynaecological conditions such as painful, heavy, or irregular periods, PMS, fertility challenges, mood swings, and menopausal hot flushes. These are some of the problems that can occur when there is an hormonal imbalance.

Current research shows that acupuncture treatments influence the production and circulation of hormones in the body.

Acupuncture is now also being used in cosmetic applications. Cosmetic acupuncture, also called facial enhancement acupuncture, is a very effective, non surgical, treatment to reduce the signs of ageing.

All treatments are keenly priced on a sliding scale and Athenry Holistic Health is VHI approved. For appointment call Bernie Ryan on 086 2294400.
