Shin splints is a term referring to pain in the lower leg that involves the two muscles that run from the knee to the ankle and the side of the foot. Generally shin splints are caused by overuse, inflexibility, lack of stretching or poor form during training. Symptoms include pain on the front or side(s) of the lower leg and occasional aching or swelling anywhere in the lower leg. Acupuncture can reduce the pain of shin splints and also swelling and inflammation. Rest in combination with acupuncture treatments and the application of a medicated liniment daily will provide a fast and effective recovery from shin splints.
Shoulder Pain; Bicep Pain; Arm Pain
I came to Monica with shoulder and bicep issues, after explaining the sensations I was having she quickly got to work. Not long after nearly all the pain was gone! I have returned for a similar service several times and am glad to report I no longer have shoulder or bicep pain.
