Sports injuries

Athletic injuries respond well to Chinese Medicine because the framework treats both the local tissue and the systemic recovery capacity in the same visit. Acute injuries (recent trauma) and chronic overuse patterns call for different approaches, and we take the time to distinguish which is present.

For acute injuries we start with light needling and cupping to reduce swelling; deeper work follows once the inflammatory phase settles. Chronic overuse (tendinopathy, recurrent strains) benefits from Tui Na and targeted rehabilitative advice. Athletes typically build a rhythm of sessions around training cycles.
