Painless needle technique with electrostimulation to decrease pain, increase blood flow, and improve joint biomechanics. 

how does it work?

Medical acupuncture is used together with neuro-functional testing to determine the nerves, muscles, and other structures that are contributing towards clinical problems. Pain does not indicate structural damage, but is better understood as a signal to tell the body that something isn't working correctly. Medical acupuncture uses fine needles and electrostimulation to "clean-up" dysfunctional areas of the body by decreasing pain signals, increasing blood flow, and improving muscle-joint biomechanics. 

"but i don't like needles"

With proper technique the acupuncture needles are almost always painless – most patients do not even feel the needles being inserted. The number of needles used is dependent on the nerves and muscles being targeted with treatment.
