Effective, No Risk Treatments
Potent Pain Relief... without the side effects
Pain management is central to orthopedic sports medicine acupuncture. Traditional pain solutions such as surgery, NSAIDs, corticosteroid injections, or opioids can carry risks, side effects as well as performance implications.
- Effective, non-pharmacologic pain-relieving option
- Stimulate the release of the body’s natural painkillers (endorphins).
- Non-invasive alternative to delay or prevent surgery
- Restore range of motion and rebalance muscle groups
- Relieve nerve pain: lower inflammation, increase muscle micro-circulation
- Fast, long-lasting results, with or without physical therapy

Treatment Services
A treatment at Bigler Wellness Acupuncture starts with a detailed background intake and musculoskeletal assessment. I use acupuncture with electric stimulation to target key muscle groups in order to eliminate pain and restore functional balance
Medical History and Chief Complaint
First session starts with a complete intake, including a full review of your health history, the dominant pain pattern and any systemic complaints you have. This may include a review of your orthopedic imaging results, previous surgeries or prior diagnoses from other healthcare professionals
Assessment and Diagnosis
I will review your movement patterns, posture, how you walk and where you are experiencing pain. I use orthopedic and functional muscle tests to pinpoint exactly which muscles or nerves are inflamed. I identify muscle imbalances and the chain reaction of symptoms from the core of your issue
Acupuncture & Myofascial Release
Needles are inserted directly where nerves enter & innervate the muscles (motor points) or where painful, knotted and irritated areas are (trigger points). Key muscle groups are targeted with electric stimulation, followed by gentle stretching and release of fascia restrictions

“After the first treatment, about 80% of my hip pain was relieved. I was able to stop the compensating I was doing to keep weight off my right hip.
After the second treatment, I regained greater physical mobility, increased weight bearing capacity, and more confidence to be active”
