What people come in for
What runners, climbers and cyclists tell us
This is what people mention when they book, not a list of what we treat. Your acupuncturist asks about your own week.
Runners
The things people bring up at the start of a plan or a few weeks in.
Tight calves and hips after long runs
A knee that grumbles in the middle of a block
Sleep that slips in the heaviest weeks
Climbers
Often after a trip, a hard project or a long day on the wall.
Tight shoulders and upper back
Sore forearms and elbows
Stiff hips after a day of high steps
Cyclists
Weeks of long hours in the same position.
Stiff neck and shoulders on long rides
Tight hips and thighs
Numb hands on the handlebars
Good to know
What it does not do, and when to see a doctor
What acupuncture does not do
It does not replace your doctor, your physical therapist, your medicine or emergency care, and it does not promise a result. Results vary.
See a doctor first
For sudden severe pain, chest pain, new weakness or numbness, a joint that gives way or swells after a fall, or loss of bladder or bowel control. In an emergency, call 911.
