Do you suffer from frequent headaches or migraines? Acupuncture can help.

A recent study showed that patients receiving acupuncture experienced greater reductions in monthly migraine days, headache days, pain intensity, acute medications, and improved overall quality of life.

Treatments consisted of twelve acupuncture sessions administered over four weeks, with three sessions weekly. Patients recorded migraine frequency, duration, pain intensity, and medication use in standardized headache diaries throughout the treatment period.

Clinical outcomes demonstrated measurable improvements following acupuncture treatment. Patients receiving acupuncture experienced greater reductions in monthly migraine days during the four-week treatment period.

Specific brain regions were monitored with an MRI and found to be associated with treatment response. Nodes associated with reductions in pain intensity were located primarily in the limbic system, prefrontal cortex, putamen, and occipital lobe. Nodes associated with improvements in headache-related disability were concentrated in the caudate nucleus, hippocampus, thalamus, motor cortex, prefrontal cortex, and cerebellum. These brain regions are involved in pain perception, emotional regulation, and sensorimotor processing.

The researchers concluded that acupuncture produced measurable improvements in migraine symptoms and headache-related disability. Neuroimaging findings further suggested that baseline brain connectivity signatures benefit from acupuncture therapy to significantly decrease migraines frequency, pain, and intensity.

Do you have shoulder pain that just won’t go away? Shoulder pain is a common concern I see in my practice.

Many people are dealing with conditions like rotator cuff injuries, frozen shoulder, tendonitis, or even pain that actually starts in the neck and travels into the shoulder. When the body has been compensating for a while, the area can become inflamed, restricted, and stuck in a cycle that simple stretching doesn’t always resolve.

Acupuncture works by helping the body decrease pain, reduce inflammation, improve circulation, and calm the nervous system—creating the conditions your body needs to heal naturally. Rather than just masking the pain, it supports deeper, longer-lasting relief.

I also incorporate craniosacral therapy, a gentle hands-on approach that helps release tension held in the fascia and nervous system. This can be especially helpful for chronic or lingering shoulder issues where the body feels guarded or restricted.

The goal isn’t just less pain—it’s helping you move freely again, sleep comfortably, and return to the activities you love without that constant ache or limitation.

If your shoulder has been trying to get your attention, it may just need a different kind of support.
I’d love to help you get back to feeling like yourself again—call or schedule your appointment at acupunctureelements.janeapp.com

Do you struggle with headaches or migraines that just keep coming back on a daily basis?  Try acupuncture.

Headaches and migraines can make it hard to focus, sleep, and enjoy your day.

In my acupuncture clinic, I help people find natural relief from headaches by addressing tension in the neck, shoulders, jaw, and nervous system. By combining acupuncture and craniosacral therapy, we work with the body to calm the nervous system, relax tight muscles, decrease pain and inflammation, and regulate hormones and decrease stress and tension that can trigger headaches.

Many of my clients noticed fewer headaches, less intensity, and less stress and tension.

If headaches or something you deal with on a regular basis, acupuncture can help. Call my office or schedule online at acupunctureelements.janeapp.com

“Is This Nerve Pain?”

Not all nerve pain feels the same.

It can show up as:
• Shooting pain
• Tingling or numbness
• Sensitivity to touch
• Pain that moves or travels

Acupuncture works by influencing the nervous system, improving circulation, and promoting better communication between the body and nerve impulses.

I treat nerve-related pain conditions in Albert Lea, MN, including back, neck, peripheral neuropathy into the hands and feet, and radiating pain.

You’re welcome to message me with questions or book an appointment.

Chronic headaches and migraines aren’t always “just tension” or “just stress.”

They’re often related to nervous system overload, muscle tension, and altered pain signals.

Acupuncture can help by:
• Releasing endorphins (the body’s natural pain relievers)
• Improving blood flow to the head and neck
• Calming the nervous system so pain signals aren’t constantly firing

Many patients notice fewer headaches, less intensity, and better recovery between episodes.

I offer acupuncture and craniosacral therapy in Albert Lea, MN and work with people dealing with chronic headaches and migraines.

If this sounds like you, you’re welcome to message me or book online.

🔹Sciatic Nerve Pain

Low back pain that shoots down the leg, into the hip, or foot is often related to sciatic nerve irritation — not just muscle tightness.

Symptoms can include:
• Sharp or burning pain
• Numbness or tingling
• Pain in the low back or hips that worsens with sitting or standing

Acupuncture can help by:
• Reducing nerve inflammation
• Improving blood flow to affected areas
• Relaxing the muscles in the low back

Many patients notice reduced pain and improved mobility over a series of treatments.

I offer acupuncture for low back pain and sciatic nerve pain in Albert Lea, MN.

If this sounds familiar, feel free to message me or book online.
