Acupuncture For Sports Injuries

I mentioned last week that my daughter sprained her shoulder playing softball...well, I took her with me today for an acupuncture treatment.  She's had acupuncture several times before and is an old pro already :)

Here she is waiting for her treatment.  This is pre-needles...



(Totally unrelated...I love the color of my acupuncturist's office!) 

First, she had her shoulder massaged a bit to loosen up the muscle. You can even watch a video on your tablet while you have your treatment!



After the massage, the needles go in...here's a shot of the needles in her back and shoulder...



She even let me take a bit of video...she's such a champ!

    This appears to be a gateway to IV drug use. It desensitizes children to needles and makes them more likely to be heroin addicts. How do you live with yourself??

    Ouch. That looks painful! The above comment upset me before I saw that it was your brother.

    It's actually not painful at all. About 90% of the time you don't even notice them.
