Contemporary Medical Acupuncture in Chestermere

Contemporary medical acupuncture is a precise nerve stimulation technique in which fine solid needles are inserted into neuro-reactive anatomical sites and stimulated manually or with electricity for the purpose of modulating pain and other dysfunctions. Acupuncture stimulates the nervous system to set the body’s natural healing mechanisms into action. Contemporary acupuncture applies evidence-based concepts of traditional acupuncture to relieve pain, alter movement patterns as well as improve performance.

Vantage Integrative Health + Wellness in Chestermere aims to combine acupuncture with your ongoing therapeutic or medicinal treatments to accelerate healing and recovery. We provide cosmetic acupuncture, fertility acupuncture, acupuncture for pain (headaches, injuries, digestion), acupuncture for physical conditions (tendonitis, fibromyalgia, arthritis), and acupuncture for mental conditions (depression, anxiety). The many scientific benefits of acupuncture you can get include pain relief, inflammation reduction, improved blood flow, stress reduction, improved nerve conduction, improved range of motion; it can also help improve organ function. Acupuncture is a safe and effective method of treatment and the majority of patients feel minimal to no discomfort when the needles are inserted.

Dr. Ayesha Ebrahim completed the Contemporary Medical Acupuncture program at McMaster University where she was given proper training in safe insertion techniques, descriptive and functional neuroanatomy, anatomy and physiology.
