Common Conditions Treated

Acute Conditions

When you have a sudden injury, it is very painful, but you know that you don’t need surgery or have a broken bone.  The acute timeline is up to thirty days. The amount of sessions that would be need would be less, because there is hope that there is no permanent damage to the tissues or surrounding joints. An expected session protocol would be 1-2 times a week for a few weeks.  These sessions can help support improved healing and decreased swelling.

The first session would provide significant pain relief, but other sessions maybe needed to feel your best to address the underlying trauma to the body.

Healing is not linear, you may feel better, then after a treatment you might not feel such a significant improvement, but improvement is being made. Bones, muscles, surrounding tissue, and soft structures most likely have damage and have different healing times.

Chronic Conditions

When you have a chronic injury, that means that the injury didn’t heal within the thirty days acute phase.  An Injury is deemed chronic after the sixty-day mark. If the injury has been longer than six months, then there are changes to the brain and how your body interprets pain, this is called Pain Brain.

The number of sessions that would be need would be more than a recent injury. When you are in pain your body supports the injury. That leads to muscle stretching and shortening to project the joint. It can also lead to permanent joint and soft tissue changes.

How many sessions that you would need depends on what else you are doing for this injury. Expected session protocol would be 1-2 times a week for a month or longer to make permanent changes to your body and neuromuscular system.

The first session would provide significant pain relief, but other sessions maybe needed to feel your best to address the underlying trauma to the body.

Healing is not linear, you may feel better, then after a treatment you might not feel such a significant improvement, but improvement is being made. Bones, muscles, surrounding tissue, and soft structures most likely have damage and have different healing times.

Facial Rejuvenation

 Facial rejuvenation is for balancing the muscles of the face with the benefits that are for everyone who gets needles. Each needle stimulates collagen, improves blood flow, reduces fluid stagnation, and leads normalized muscle movements.  It helps with migraines, TMJ, nerve palsy, and other facial conditions.  The side effects are normalized facial muscle movements, looking, and feeling better. 

The areas that are addressed are the muscles around the mouth the TMJ, the eyebrows, and the cheeks.  The typical protocol for maximal benefits is to be treated twice a week for five weeks. However, if you feel that you look and feel your best you can stop at any time.

Vagus Nerve Reset

The vagus nerve contributes to the fight, flight, freeze, and fawn reflex. When it is on over drive and it can contribute to pain, and an overtaxed nervous system. When the Vagus Nerve has been on over drive you can find yourself not able to sleep, with gastrointestinal upset, nervousness, and anxiety.

Dry needling can directly impact the Vagu Nerve by placing a needle on the spot of the ear, the only place where it is exposed on the skin.  These needles relax the nervous system and can help improve your sleep and other areas of your life. It can break the overactive cycle and help you sleep better, deal with stress, and reduce anxiety.

A protocol for this therapy is once a week till you are better able to manage your stress or situation. Or if you have very significant stress, you can come 1-2 a week for better regulation of your nervous system.

Scar Therapy

Scars hold emotions, whether you received the scar from an accident, a surgery, or just from everyday life. They can remind you of something horrible that happened. They can remind you of some failing of your body. Or they can remind you of when you were able to live again. Scars are not just about your skin having a flaw.  Scars are their own type of pathology.

Scars can go very deep in the body. They can restrict movement of muscles, joints, or even fluid. They can restrict digestion, lead to pain that area or other parts of your body or even breathing.

If you are a candidate for scar therapy, it does take a few sessions to get the maximum benefit. I find that five sessions are needed to have significant permanent changes to the soft tissue around the scar, and the scar itself.

Neuromuscular Dysfunction

The nerves move the muscles, but sometimes there is miscommunication and damage to their pathway. Dry needling can help by supporting the nerves with blood and oxygen, decreasing inflammation, and treating muscular dysfunction.  Sometimes the muscles are stretched more than is comfortable and you feel a “pulling” sensation.  Other times your muscles can be stuck in a shortened position and can pull the joints into an incorrect alignment.  Either situation can cause pain and discomfort.
 
Contact me if you want to know if dry needling can help your body restore balance and improve blood flow, and normalize muscle length.

Migraines, Headaches, & Tinnitus

Don’t suffer any longer! If your headaches escalate into a migraine or you experience chronic or intermittent migraines, dry needling can help. Short-term tinnitus is much easier to treat than chronic tinnitus, so don’t endure this very stressful condition any longer! This drug-free solution utilizes healing needles to directly target the nerves and muscles responsible for causing migraines, headaches, or tinnitus. Healing with these conditions looks different than other conditions.  Most clients start by reporting improved sleep.  Then they report decreased stress and anxiety.  Next the clients notice that their symptoms are less.  They stop being daily, then they notice that the time between episodes is longer.  Then hopefully their symptoms just disappear.  They get their lives back!  Contact A Total Healing Solution to break the pain cycle and start feeling your best!

Urinary Incontinence

The pelvic region is often overlooked in conversation, which is unfortunate, as many women and men suffer in silence. Urinary incontinence is not a normal part of aging, nor should it be a consequence of childbirth.  At A Total Healing Solution, I can utilize healing needles to address pelvic muscle imbalances and the brain centers that regulate urinary urges and frequencies. The needles for urinary incontinence are placed in your legs, while the pelvic area can be reached from the buttocks. Contact me to explore how we can restore function and help you live your best life. This treatment can also be offered in a group setting, providing a total healing experience group. If you have four or more friends interested in addressing this condition together, let me know, and I can create a package event for your group. Call 412-282-3826.

Concussion Therapy

Concussions result from trauma and blood disruption to the brain and surrounding tissue.  Dry needling can improve normal blood flow to all regions of trauma from the muscles, tendons, and treating the vagus nerve. This technique not only increases oxygenation but also helps normalize muscle imbalances caused by the injury. Additionally, other modalities can be included in your appointment to enhance healing. Discover how our healing needles can assist you in awakening the healing power within. Make an appointment today at 412-282-3826.
