Excellent5.0★★★★★ Based on 24 reviews from review us onPowell Flint ★★★★★ My father had stroke 5 years ago, not able to walk, need to move with a walker, after visit this clinic for regular treatment for 3 months, he can walk now.Response from the ownerThanks for your sharing. The Role of Acupuncture in Stroke Recovery: Acupuncture has been practiced for thousands of years as a key component of traditional Chinese medicine. Its underlying principle is based on the concept of Qi (pronounced “chee”), the vital energy that flows through pathways known as meridians in the body. According to traditional Chinese medicine theory, illness and pain occur when Qi becomes blocked or imbalanced. By inserting needles at specific acupoints along these meridians, acupuncture aims to restore the smooth flow of Qi, promoting healing and alleviating symptoms.In the context of stroke recovery, acupuncture offers several potential benefits:Pain Management: Many stroke survivors experience chronic pain, particularly due to muscle spasticity or nerve damage. Acupuncture has been shown to reduce pain by stimulating the release of endorphins, the body’s natural pain-relieving chemicals, and modulating pain perception pathways in the brain.Improved Motor Function: Acupuncture may help enhance motor recovery by promoting neuroplasticity—the brain’s ability to reorganize and form new neural connections. By targeting specific acupoints related to motor function, acupuncture therapy can potentially facilitate the rehabilitation process and restore movement in affected limbs.Enhanced Blood Circulation: Proper blood circulation is crucial for supplying oxygen and nutrients to the brain, aiding in its repair and regeneration after a stroke. Acupuncture has been found to enhance blood flow by dilating blood vessels and improving microcirculation, thereby supporting the healing process and reducing the risk of secondary complications.Stress Reduction and Mental Well-being: Stroke recovery can be emotionally taxing, leading to anxiety, depression, and other psychological issues. Acupuncture sessions promote relaxation and stress reduction by triggering the release of neurotransmitters like serotonin and dopamine, which contribute to improved mood and overall well-being.Adjunctive Therapy: Acupuncture is often used as a complementary therapy alongside conventional rehabilitation interventions. Integrating acupuncture into a comprehensive stroke rehabilitation program can provide additional support and enhance the effectiveness of other treatments.Research Evidence and Clinical Studies: While the use of acupuncture in stroke rehabilitation is promising, more research is needed to fully understand its mechanisms and efficacy. Several clinical studies have investigated the effects of acupuncture on various aspects of stroke recovery, including motor function, cognitive function, and quality of life. While some studies have reported positive outcomes, others have yielded inconclusive results, highlighting the need for further randomized controlled trials and standardized protocols.Conclusion: Acupuncture holds considerable potential as a complementary therapy for stroke recovery, offering benefits in pain management, motor function improvement, stress reduction, and overall well-being. However, its integration into mainstream rehabilitation practices requires more robust scientific evidence and standardized guidelines. As research in this field continues to evolve, acupuncture may emerge as a valuable adjunctive treatment option, providing hope and healing for stroke survivors striving to regain independence and quality of life.Incorporating the ancient wisdom of acupuncture into modern stroke rehabilitation protocols represents a harmonious fusion of Eastern and Western healing philosophies, paving the way for holistic approaches to recovery and wellness.

Amanda McCormick ★★★★★ Cindy is Great, knowledgeable, Gentle and polite. I have been seeing her for a couple for frozen hip and shoulder and have enjoyed some increased movement.Response from the ownerThanks for your sharing. Frozen shoulder, medically known as adhesive capsulitis, is a debilitating condition characterized by stiffness, pain, and limited range of motion in the shoulder joint. Conventional treatments often involve pain management and physical therapy, but there's a growing interest in alternative therapies like acupuncture. Let's delve deeper into how acupuncture can help unlock frozen shoulders and restore mobility and comfort to sufferers.Understanding Frozen Shoulder:Before exploring acupuncture's role in treating frozen shoulder, it's crucial to understand the condition itself. Frozen shoulder occurs when the connective tissue surrounding the shoulder joint becomes thickened and inflamed, leading to stiffness and restricted movement. This can be caused by various factors such as injury, overuse, or underlying medical conditions like diabetes or thyroid disorders. Regardless of the cause, frozen shoulder can significantly impact a person's quality of life, making even simple tasks like getting dressed or reaching for objects painful and challenging.The Role of Acupuncture:Acupuncture is a key component of traditional Chinese medicine (TCM) that involves inserting thin needles into specific points on the body to stimulate energy flow, known as Qi. According to TCM principles, the body's energy meridians can become blocked or imbalanced, leading to pain and illness. Acupuncture aims to restore balance and promote healing by unblocking these pathways.When it comes to frozen shoulder, acupuncture can target specific acupoints associated with the shoulder and surrounding areas. By inserting needles into these points, acupuncture practitioners aim to reduce inflammation, alleviate pain, and improve blood circulation to the affected area. Additionally, acupuncture may help release tension in the muscles and promote relaxation, which can further enhance mobility and comfort in the shoulder joint. Ashley Chiaramida ★★★★★ Cindy is a great acupuncturist - she's very knowledgeable in her treatments. We've notice significant improvement with just shy of two months of treatment. I would highly recommend Cindy and her clinic!Response from the ownerThank you for your sharing. Melanie MacMurchy ★★★★★ Came in with some excruciating pain at the base of my neck and within 3 sessions Cindy had me all sorted! Definitely recommend.Response from the ownerThanks for your sharing. Neck and shoulder pain can be caused by various factors, and it's important to note that multiple factors may contribute to the discomfort. Here are some common reasons for neck and shoulder pain:Muscle Strain: Overuse or poor posture can lead to muscle strain in the neck and shoulders. This can be caused by activities such as prolonged sitting at a desk, carrying heavy bags, or sleeping in an awkward position.Poor Ergonomics: Incorrect ergonomics at work or while using electronic devices can contribute to neck and shoulder pain. This includes an improperly positioned computer monitor, chair, or keyboard.Trauma or Injury: Accidents, falls, or sudden impacts can cause injuries to the neck and shoulder region, leading to pain.Herniated Discs: The discs between the vertebrae in the spine can herniate or bulge, putting pressure on nerves and causing pain that may radiate into the shoulders and neck.Arthritis: Conditions like osteoarthritis or rheumatoid arthritis can affect the joints in the neck and shoulders, leading to pain and stiffness.Stress and Tension: Emotional stress can contribute to muscle tension, particularly in the neck and shoulders. Prolonged tension may result in pain.Poor Sleeping Position: Sleeping in an uncomfortable or awkward position can strain the neck and shoulders, leading to pain.Referred Pain: Pain originating from other areas of the body, such as the spine or internal organs, can be felt in the neck and shoulders.Nerve Compression: Conditions like cervical radiculopathy, where nerves in the neck are compressed or irritated, can cause pain that may extend into the shoulders.Medical Conditions: Certain medical conditions, such as fibromyalgia or myofascial pain syndrome, can cause widespread pain, including the neck and shoulders.We restored blood circulation then your will feel better. Scott Mercier ★★★★★ I've been quite ill for almost 5 years. Not fully diagnosed yet, but includes Fibromyalgia and Myalgic encephalomyelitis/CFS. I have tried numerous treatments including acupuncture. None of them helped at all. I have only been going to Cindy for a few weeks so far but I have seen a noticeable improvement in both my pain and energy. Even if I have no further improvements I would certainly call her treatments a success. Highly Recommended!Response from the ownerThanks for taking your time to share your experience. About Fibromyalgia and Myalgic encephalomyelitis/CFS, in the view of Traditional Chinese Medicine, we found a few major patterns about this disorder, but not limited to these patterns:a) Spleen deficiency.b) And deficiency of the Kidney, because of the insidious onset, back and forth pain and soreness, tired feeling, and weakness of loins and knees. Overstrain and stress consume essence and Qi, thus it is worse. Kidney deficiency has signs of deep and weak pulse, especially the position close to the heart.c) And Qi deficiency.d) And invasion by pathogenic cold and damp, because of exposure to cold and damp, and is worse on rainy days, feeling heavies and stiffness, limitation of extension and flexion of some parts of the body, and feeling of cold, and pain any part of the body. This pattern has signs of soft pulse or teeth marks on the tongue.That is why I would check your pulse and tongue and ask you a lot to questions, once we find the right pattern, then we can find the solution. ken harding ★★★★★ ExcellentResponse from the ownerThanks a lot Tatiana Kopylova ★★★★★ Response from the ownerThanks for your 5 stars.

And we do direct billing to most insurance companies and WSIB. Chinese Acupuncture Orillia will treat your problem carefully. Acupuncture is a form of traditional Chinese medicine that involves inserting fine needles into specific points on the body to stimulate the body’s natural healing processes.

1.1 Chinese TCM Acupuncture Orillia describes the Mechanism providing pain relief

In our body, we have a layer of material called fascia, fascia is a band of connective tissue made of collagen to stabilize and closes and separates muscles and nerves blood vessels, and internal organs.  So the fascia surface has tiny holes with nerve, artery, and vein, forming a triad. Pain exists when these triads- fascial holes become strangled by collagen.

Book your appoitment now

The de-strangle initiates the release of endorphins, then endorphins lead to little or no pain perception in the brain. Research in Germany showed that: these fascia holes are 82% identical with 361 classical acupoints. So after the needle goes through the surface of the skin into an acupuncture point or action point, needles move by different techniques like twisting and thrusting, thus these movements unfreeze these fascial holes to provide pain relief.

1.2. Chinese TCM Acupuncture Orillia describes the Mechanism of providing maintaining health

After the needle goes punctured through the surface of the skin into an acupuncture point or action point, and the needle moves by techniques like twisting or thrusting or lifting, the fascia collagen deforms to create little spots of electricity to activate nerves located under the fascial holes, these nerves release substance P. Substance P acts on white cells, thus they will degranulate and release histamine, Heparin, and neurokinin A. Here is a link in Youtube.

These substances will interact with surrounding nerves. so these nerves will cause an electrical shock or distension or tingling sensation, this sensation is DeQi or obtaining Qi. Thus the surrounding nerves will then activate the brain through the spinal cord. Different acupuncture point activates different parts of the brain, thus obtaining different treatment results, such as treating blood pressure, inflammation, mood, anxiety, endocrine, and cell growth for wound healing.

1.3. Is aucpuncture painful?

It is not painful. Most of the time, the sensation that most people experience when receiving acupuncture is often described as a tingling or dull pressure, rather than a sharp pain, occasionally have some biting sensation. To compare this sensation to a common pain experience, it may be similar to the feeling of a mosquito bite or a minor scratch. Both of these sensations are temporary and generally do not cause significant discomfort or pain.

1.4. And How does Osteopath work?

Many of today’s health problems are aggravated by lifestyle, stress, inactivity, and repetition. Thus this can create muscle imbalances and unwanted restrictions within the body. So these imbalances and restrictions can impede the natural flow of blood, lymphatics, and nerve transmission to its tissues including the organs. The result is dysfunction and pain. So If it stays too long, sometimes it can cause an array of other problems. But Manual Therapies have been used for centuries, and are still effective today as a form of preventative health care, stress relief, and treatment for injuries and other health conditions.

Manual Therapy is very effective in the treatment of but not limited to: migraines and tension headaches, chronic or acute pain, athletic or work-related injuries, tendonitis, whiplash, sciatica, discomforts of pregnancy, relaxing tight or tense muscles, increasing joint mobility, reducing stress, restoring balance, and creating an overall sense of well-being. And Manual Therapy promotes healing and overall wellness.

So It is very helpful for: Tendonitis, Stroke, Arthritis, Constipation, Thoracic Outlet Syndrome, joint or muscle pain, bursitis, Tension headache, TMJ (Temporomandibular joint disorder)……
