Acupuncture Clinic in Jersey Shore, PA
Acute or chronic pain is never something you should have to ‘put up with’. Many people continue to go through life ignoring little moments of discomfort and pain simply to achieve their daily goals. Long-term, even slight pain or strain in your legs, arms and/or feet could result in serious injury. Reaching out for help – from acupuncture in Jersey Shore, PA for example – will ensure your body stays flexible and functional for the years ahead.
Lycoming Orthopedic & Sports Therapy is a specialized, fully qualified clinic offering therapy to people from all walks of life. You may seek pain relief for a condition that’s not going away, or help to prime your body for intense exercise. Over hundreds of years, traditional acupuncture has proven exceptional for treating pain on demand, and helping millions of people stay supple, active, and comfortable for years to come.
If you’ve never booked sports therapy, pain management therapy, or even simple acupuncture before, you will likely have questions to ask! We’re here to help – from your first visit to our clinic onwards, we’ll work with you to design a treatment plan that helps to relieve pain, strain, and keep you on your feet.
You don’t have to be a track athlete or a gridiron star to benefit from regular acupuncture. Let’s take a look at what you can expect.

REJUVENATE
Our bodies carry incredible amounts of stress and tension.
In addition, those of us who excel in sports are prone to injury and scarring that can cause long-term harm, both physically and mentally. Caring for your body and mind means occasionally taking time to consider acupuncture and sports therapy.
Acupuncture, dry needling, cupping, and other specialized therapies can help you to maintain incredible flexibility and strength. Acupuncture is not simply a go-to for pain relief – it can – and will – ensure that you are fighting fit, and are at the top of your game!
From a simple consultation, you’ll receive a personal plan of care and action. This supports a full initial assessment and questionnaire – and you will have the time and space to ask any questions you desire.
Managing your pain with regular therapy
We see it time and time again – many people head to our clinic with painful conditions that they mask with medication. Pain medicine will only ever cover up underlying problems – whereas acupuncture and associated therapy will directly target problem areas to relieve pain at-source.
Pain management through acupuncture will not only relieve discomfort in the short term. With regular sessions, you can expect to regain amazing flexibility and functions in your muscles and joints. People of all ages experience pain that can prevent them from leading fulfilling lives. Why risk your livelihood?
At your first visit to our clinic, we’ll run a few tests with you to find out where you’re most uncomfortable. It’ll be a great time for you to explain how you feel day by day – and what you’d like to achieve long-term. From here, we’ll set up a pain management plan to ensure you can get back to doing what you love.
Is sports therapy right for me?
While highly active people – such as athletes and sports personalities – put their bodies through incredible stress, we are all still susceptible to pain and injury. No matter where you are on your exercise journey, or in your athletic career, acupuncture and other therapies can help to prepare you to reach your goals.
Our clinic supports active people in need of ongoing therapy for sports injuries, inflexibility, and long-term preparation. We all have physical limits – and from your first session of sports therapy acupuncture in Jersey Shore, PA, you’ll find out where they lie – and how you can safely move past them.
Acupuncture can help to improve your flexibility and to re-energize the areas of your body likely to be under the most strain. You don’t have to be a five-star athlete, or even suffering from an ongoing injury, to benefit from regular acupuncture.
Services we provide
Interested in booking your first acupuncture session with us? Great – and we anticipate you’ll want to know more about the different therapies we provide!
Alongside traditional acupuncture and needling, Lycoming Orthopedic & Sports Therapy specializes in further techniques and therapies that provide our visitors with greater flexibility to function at their best.
You don’t have to know which therapy you’d like to choose before visiting – as we will help to assess your needs during your first consultation session at our clinic. Let’s break down some of the most popular therapies we provide to visitors across Jersey Shore.
Traditional Acupuncture
Acupuncture is an invigorating therapy that’s helped millions of people regain vitality and confidence over centuries of practice. Following traditional methods, and with years of professional, qualified expertise, we help to target areas of your body that demand respite from pain, or additional blood and oxygen to regain strength and flexibility.
Acupuncture is not a painful process! During your session, you’ll feel gentle pressure and warmth across the motor points we target. In fact, after a single two-hour session, most visitors leave feeling immediately refreshed.
Strength Assessments
A crucial part of all our assessments and treatments is strength testing. Before we agree upon treatment and care best suited to your body and future needs, we’ll ask you to perform a few physical tests with us. This, along with a chat about your physical profile – will help us to tailor a treatment plan that genuinely supports you.
Cupping
Cupping is a fantastic alternative to acupuncture, targeting areas of strain and tension in the body with miniature vacuums. By targeting painful or tense points with vacuums, blood is better stimulated to flow freely to areas of your body in need of relief. We support wet and dry cupping treatments as standard.
Dry Needling
Dry needling is a must for those who struggle with tight, painful tension across various muscles and motor points in their bodies. Similar to traditional acupuncture, this practice focuses a little more closely on boosting flexibility and freedom from knotting and painful restrictions.
Electrostimulation
Electrostimulation is an alternative form of acupuncture that delivers gentle currents through heated needles. This process targets points across your nervous system needing re-energizing and freedom from pain. It’s particularly recommended for athletes who, for example, may struggle to move past a ‘wall’ while training.
Soft Tissue Mobilization
Just like electrostimulation, soft tissue mobilization can prove beneficial for highly active people. This process allows us to directly target areas of the body using the celebrated Graston Technique – and is particularly beneficial for easing pain and immobility caused by musculoskeletal conditions.
