Benefits of Acupuncture at Peak Health and Performance

Acupuncture at Peak Health and Performance supports pain reduction, improved mobility, and overall nervous system regulation by stimulating targeted points that promote circulation and modulate inflammation. It can help relieve chronic and acute musculoskeletal pain, reduce tension and stress, improve sleep quality, and support recovery from injury or overuse. Many patients also experience enhanced relaxation and improved energy levels as treatment encourages the body’s natural healing response. When integrated into a comprehensive care plan, acupuncture can complement physiotherapy, chiropractic, or rehabilitation programs to accelerate recovery and optimize overall performance.

Extremely helpful, friendly, professional staff. Best place in the city for physio. They've done an incredible job helping me manage three concussions, getting me back on track quicker than I thought possible.

I had knee surgery and then started seeing Kajal to begin my recovery. She built a comprehensive plan to restrengthen my knee, which was easy to follow and implement at home. After following the plan, I was able to return to competitive sport early and with full confidence.

I visited Dr. Logan Gerwing based off an recommendation and was very impressed. I have had a ton of physiotherapy/chiropractic care over the years and couldn't believe how quickly Logan was able to get to the root cause of my pain and set up a plan to resolve.

From the moment I walked into Peak I felt completely welcomed and taken care of. The front desk staff was super friendly and helpful. Jess is absolutely amazing! She is not only a wonderful human but a fabulous RMT. She listens to your needs and checks in with you throughout the session. You will walk out of there feeling like a new person!

I've been going here for a few months and I am obsessed! It's so friendly, refreshing, and I leave there full of joy. There are slippers when you walk in, the layout is unique, the massage is incredible! RMT Syndey has healing hands and the knowledge and follow up she provides has helped me so much. I am grateful to have found Peak Health and Performance.

What is Medical Acupuncture?

Medical Acupuncture applies the evidence-based concepts of acupuncture to relieve pain, alter movement patterns and improve performance. Acupuncture stimulates the nervous system to put the body’s natural mechanisms of healing into action.

What is Intramuscular Stimulation (IMS)?

IMS is a therapeutic treatment that uses acupuncture needles to target tight, hyperactive and sore muscles. IMS releases tight muscles, reducing nerve pain and irritation, and restoring a normal range of motion. The effects are cumulative, as each treatment builds upon the previous session to stimulate healing.

FAQs

What is acupuncture?

Acupuncture is a form of Traditional Chinese Medicine practiced for thousands of years in China and other Asian countries. The practice involves inserting thin disposable needles into specific trigger points along the body to treat various ailments.

What Are The Wide Range Of Benefits Of Medical Acupuncture?

At our South Calgary acupuncture center, you can experience improved well-being that includes better blood circulation, improved sleep, less fatigue, reduced stress levels, increased energy levels, and most of all, pain relief.

What is the difference between IMS, Acupuncture, and Dry Needling?

The three main types of acupuncture are IMS, dry needling, and acupressure. They all work by stimulating points along the meridians in the body. However, they differ in how they do it. IMS uses needles inserted into specific points along the meridian. Dry needling works by inserting fine filaments through the skin at the point where the meridian meets the surface of the skin. Acupressure works by applying pressure to certain points on the body using finger pads or thumbs.
