Leg length discrepancy
True leg disparity: also known as “structural” leg disparity. This type of leg disparity may be caused by congenital diseases or acquired accidents (such as comminuted fractures, broken bones, etc.). After the bones heal, it is found that the legs are indeed different in length! However, true leg disparity cannot be significantly changed through treatment.
False leg disparity: also known as “functional” leg disparity. This type of leg disparity is mostly caused by poor living posture, resulting in pelvic crookedness, scoliosis, uneven tension on both sides of the spine, etc. Due to long-term accumulation and incorrect posture, our bodies often feel back pain, leg soreness, numbness, stiffness and weakness!
AMCT chiropractic gun is a technology for spinal nerve pulse correction. AMCT can make accurate judgments and rapid corrections for symptoms caused by spinal subluxation. It has the advantages of no pain, good efficacy, and low recurrence. It is very helpful for patients with pseudo-elongated feet and various spinal symptoms.
True elongated feet cannot be significantly changed through treatment. It can only be treated through external methods such as special insoles and corrective shoes to evenly distribute the force on the feet and avoid frequent soreness. As for pseudo-elongated feet, the AMCT chiropractic gun technology can be used to reset the dislocated bones and restore muscle tension.
Frozen Shoulder
Frozen shoulder is also called frozen shoulder. Its medical name is adhesive capsulitis of the shoulder joint. It is a condition in which the shoulder is painful and difficult to lift. Since this disease is more common in middle-aged people, especially those around 50 years old, it is called “frozen shoulder”. In fact, many people in their 40s or 60s and 70s also suffer from it. The shoulder joint is the joint with the largest range of motion in the whole body and can rotate 360 degrees. However, overuse, old injuries, and aging degeneration may cause inflammation and even adhesion of the soft tissue around the shoulder joint.
Frozen shoulder is divided into two types, “primary” and “secondary”. Primary is mostly related to aging and degeneration, while secondary is caused by various injuries, diseases, excessive activities, or fear of moving due to injury to the affected part.
Common situations are that the range of motion of the shoulder joint, such as combing and washing hair, dressing, inserting hands, touching the back, rubbing the anus, hanging clothes, and other daily life activities are obviously restricted.
Acupuncture treatment in traditional Chinese medicine can dredge meridians, regulate qi and blood, relieve pain, accelerate tissue repair and normal joint movement, and be combined with oral and topical medicines. Needle-pulling therapy is a percutaneous minimally invasive soft tissue release technique. By combining the acupuncture “needle” of traditional medicine and the surgical “knife” of modern medicine, the acupuncture needle is changed into a blade shape. It not only has the therapeutic effect of traditional acupuncture, but also can achieve the effect of dredging and pulling away adhesion tissues. It can quickly relax tense muscles and deal with shoulder joint adhesion problems. Needle-pulling therapy has little trauma and is also very safe!
De Quervain disease
Common in middle-aged women or women after childbirth, mostly related to incorrect use of force in daily life, or repeated excessive force, such as excessive bending of the wrist and excessive abduction of the thumb when holding a baby, which can easily lead to “mommy’s hand”. The thumb area close to the wrist is unable to exert force or pain, and there is tension in the upper limbs and local swelling. In addition to mothers, many workers who need to use their wrists a lot and for a long time are also high-risk groups for mommy’s hand. The following practitioners need to pay special attention:
① Bank tellers and accountants need to count money and record orders repeatedly
② Production line workers continue single and long-term processing actions
③ Office workers need to use the mouse for a long time
④ Writers maintain a pen-holding posture for a long time
⑤ Waiters use thumbs to carry plates for a long time
Professional Chinese medicine practitioners can use manual tendon massage techniques to relieve pain in the affected area (do not over-massage the affected area during the acute phase). Acupuncture can also be used to improve local swelling and pain, and it can be combined with oral medications that promote blood circulation to achieve the best therapeutic effect.
Shoulder and neck pain
With the use of various technological products, the number of patients with shoulder and neck pain is increasing. The pressure on the cervical spine is about 5 times greater, and the tension and pulling force between the shoulder muscles are unbalanced, which will cause shoulder and neck pain symptoms.
In addition, it also includes pain caused by strains and sprains. In addition, depending on the severity and location, it may be accompanied by dizziness, headaches, tinnitus, palpitations, insomnia, chest tightness, gastrointestinal discomfort, depression, and poor sleep quality. The various symptoms associated with shoulder and neck pain should not be ignored!
The causes of pain are complex and are not as simple as muscle tension. We target the local trigger points of shoulder and neck pain with acupuncture and moxibustion, and use Chinese medicine to help promote the flow of qi and blood in the meridians to reduce pain. Our hospital also has an exclusive external application formula to completely relieve and improve shoulder and neck pain.
Sciatica
Lower back pain is a common symptom for everyone, and it is the second most common reason for visiting our outpatient clinic after weight loss. Sciatica is not the name of a disease, but a symptom. Depending on the condition, it is usually unilateral and requires patience to find out the cause of the disease. Common symptoms include: soreness or pain in the waist, buttocks, and legs, which is particularly obvious when sitting down; electric shock or knife-like pain when bending over, coughing, or sneezing; weakness in the legs, accompanied by numbness, tingling, stiffness, etc.
Professional Chinese medicine practitioners perform palpation and manual treatment, and the relief is immediate. However, sciatica is not a sudden symptom, but a long-term accumulation. Therefore, patients are required to cooperate with return visits for at least half a year. It can also be combined with oral Chinese medicine to regulate from the inside out. In addition, acupuncture therapy also has a good effect on patients who dare to try acupuncture!
Headache Treatment
It is roughly divided into two types.
Primary headache: refers to headaches that are not caused by other physical diseases, accounting for about 90% of headache cases, such as migraine, tension headache, cluster headache, most of the triggering factors are related to muscle compression, soreness, abnormal blood vessels and nerves in the brain, long-term pressure accumulation, etc.
Secondary headache: symptoms of headache caused by certain diseases in the body, such as stroke, high blood pressure, brain tumors, head trauma, systemic infection and other diseases. Secondary headaches may also be a sign of certain diseases, so once an unusual headache occurs, you need to see a doctor for a suitable diagnosis.
According to the pathological causes, Chinese medicine divides headaches into wind-cold, wind-heat, rheumatism, liver yang, phlegm, blood stasis, kidney yin deficiency, kidney yang deficiency, blood stasis headache, etc. According to the individual’s physical condition, syndrome differentiation is carried out, and Chinese medicine prescriptions or acupuncture treatment are combined.
