A large portion of my clientele is made up of athletes of all kinds.  I regularly work with tri-athletes, iron men and marathon runners, particularly while they are in training.  I also routinely treat body builders, yogis, dancers and performers.  I specialize in Myofascial Release Techniques (including Trigger Point Release) that help relieve pain, release spasmed muscles, decompress joints, increase range of motion and profoundly improve athletic performance.  I regularly treat conditions concerning knees, hips, ankles, feet, shoulders, backs, hamstrings and IT bands - all the places those of us who use our bodies in extreme ways can potentially encounter problems. 

In my experience, I find that Acupuncture can be the one single factor enabling an injured athlete to resume their training and participate in their competition when they otherwise would not be able.  Acupuncture also works very well with other therapies such as Physical Therapy, often speeding up the time someone needs to be in Physical Therapy altogether.
