At Toronto Centre for Sports Medicine, we believe in the value and importance of acupuncture to help with sports physiotherapy in Toronto. Our physical therapists utilize acupuncture to help reduce both pain and inflammation as an alternative to medication. Below we have listed 4 benefits of acupuncture.

1. Increases endorphins
Acupuncture helps reduce pain and inflammation by releasing endorphins into your body. Endorphins are the neurotransmitters that release positive and happy feelings to the brain during acupuncture.

2. Blood Circulation
Acupuncture enables stimulation in the blood stream to allow proper circulation in the body by improving the path it takes for nutrients and oxygen to get to your cells.
