Electro-acupuncture is like acupuncture with a fun little twist.

It involves passing a tiny electric current between pairs of acupuncture needles, giving those acupoints some steady stimulation. This helps activate nerve fibers, which release your body’s natural painkillers (hello, endorphins!) to reduce inflammation and pain.

It’s especially great for anyone dealing with chronic pain, as it works its magic on your body’s pain pathways. So, if you’ve been battling long-term aches, electro-acupuncture could be just what you need!
