Woman after car accident

Why acupuncture for motor vehicle accident (mva) recovery?

Don’t wait for your symptoms to get worse. Prompt treatment through acupuncture can make a big difference in your recovery.

The impact of a car accident – whether a major collision or a minor fender-bender – can have lasting effects on your body.

While it’s common to feel fine immediately after an incident, symptoms often develop gradually. Headaches, neck pain, back problems, and anxiety may surface weeks or even months later.

Prompt treatment through acupuncture can make a significant difference in your recovery. This natural approach effectively addresses pain, reduces inflammation, and helps restore balance to your nervous system.

Many patients find they need fewer medications when starting acupuncture early. For optimal results, we often recommend combining acupuncture with complementary therapies like massage – all typically covered by your auto insurance.

Don’t hesitate to use your insurance benefits for proper care. We regularly treat patients after an auto accident with great success.

“My wife and I had car accident near the end of last year and began treatment with a chiropractor and massage therapist, but saw only small incremental healing response. At the recommendation of the massage therapist, my wife visited Sang for treatments. These treatments, in conjunction with the massage, were able to speed the healing process by alleviating pain for days after.”

– Sally Carr, Grants Pass Oregon

Frequently Asked Questions

Traditional Chinese medicine explains that energy called qi, (pronounced “chee”) and blood, circulate through pathways or meridians in the body.

Meridians are different from the circulatory, nervous, or lymph systems. They are the pathways by which the qi and blood circulate through the body between the organs and tissues.

An obstruction in the movement of energy flow through a meridian congests the flow of qi and blood, which can cause pain and other disorders. Needling specific acupuncture points unblocks the congestion and reestablishes the free flow of energy through the meridians.

From a Western scientific perspective, acupuncture stimulates the nervous system to release chemicals in the muscles, spinal cord, and brain, to change the experience of pain or to trigger the release of pain-relieving chemicals and hormones which influence the body’s own internal regulating system.

The improved energy and biochemical balance produced by acupuncture stimulates the body’s natural healing abilities and promotes physical and emotional well-being.

National Institutes of Health (NIH) studies have shown that acupuncture is an effective treatment alone or in combination with conventional therapies to treat the following:

  • Arthritis
  • Back pain
  • Migraines/Headaches
  • Myofascial pain
  • Nausea caused by surgical anesthesia and cancer chemotherapy
  • Dental pain after surgery
  • Perimenopause
  • Menopause
  • Menstrual cramps
  • Fibromyalgia

There are over 100 conditions that have been positively treated with acupuncture.  Learn more at the NIH website.

Many patients worry that the needles will be painful. However, unlike needles used for injections, acupuncture needles are solid, extremely fine, and with a sharp point.

Insertion of these slender needles goes unnoticed by some people. Others may feel a pinch, similar to a mosquito bite, followed by a sensation of tingling, numbness, aching, traveling warmth, or heaviness.

Some say that they feel Qi (energy) spread from the point of insertion.  All these are signs that the treatment is working.

Yes! All needles are one time use, sterile needles. They get disposed of in a Sharps container which is then brought to a certified facility to be disposed of safely.

Thin, sterile disposable needles are gently inserted through the skin into acupuncture points.

Insertion of these slender needles goes unnoticed by some people. Others may feel a pinch, similar to a mosquito bite, followed by a sensation of tingling, numbness, aching, traveling warmth, or heaviness.

The Chinese call this sensation De qi (duh-chee), which means “arrival of qi.” De qi usually passes quickly and indicates that the energy is starting to move.

Some acupuncture points are more tender than others, and people have different pain tolerance levels, so some people will feel acupuncture doesn’t hurt at all, while others may feel stronger sensations. 

Sometimes the acupuncture points are connected to a gentle electrical stimulator to help relieve pain and muscle spasms. Needles are left in place for 25 to 40 minutes while you get to relax quietly and listen to music.

Total treatment time may take one hour to 90 minutes. You may also experience the combination of acupuncture with cupping, gua sha, moxibustion, e-stim, along with lifestyle, and Chinese herbal therapy recommendations.

Many insurance companies are beginning to cover acupuncture, especially for pain conditions. Please contact your insurance company to find out if you have coverage. Call Sang to find out if your policy covers acupuncture.  Typically, she  will be able to get a reply from your insurance company within 1-2 business days. Please call our office if you have any questions and we will be happy to answer your questions. 

If you have a recent claim from your automobile insurance because you suffered an injury from a motor vehicle accident, your car insurance covers acupuncture! Call Montage Acupuncture and OM to return to feeling well.

Every person responds differently to care. Frequency will depend on your condition and overall health.

In general, for most acute conditions (usually sudden onset of pain, that you’ve experienced for a short amount of time) you will likely need 6-8 treatments, once – twice weekly.

For complex, chronic conditions, the time it will take to recover varies drastically. Depending on the severity of your pain, we may recommend that you be seen twice a week for 6 -8 weeks, then expand the appointment to once a week, to bimonthly, until you have graduated and are on the path to wellness. Meaning treatments may only have to occur once a month or only during seasonal changes to keep up your wellness regime.

Keep in mind that the body needs time to heal.  Chronic conditions did not arrive overnight and healing will also take some time.

As your symptoms improve and your body heals, you will require fewer visits. Once we achieve maximum improvement, many people elect to continue treatment once a month to keep their bodies ‘tuned-up’ or come when the seasons change. It is recommended to come once a year to keep your patient file active and up to date with your practitioner.
