Applications are mostly associated with treatment of chronic muscular and tendon disorders, back and neck pain. Most common indications include: painful shoulder, epicondylitis, low back pain, Achilles tendon pain, patellar tendonitis and trigger points. Its main assets are fast pain relief and mobility restoration. Many people report that their pain is reduced and mobility improved after the first treatment.

Acupuncture
