Acupuncture

Acupuncture stimulates the balance and flow of Qi energy that in Traditional Chinese Medicine is considered essential to health. When the body is healthy, Qi (pronounced chee), flows smoothly through the meridians that make up a conceptual network of pathways throughout the entire body. When the balance or flow of Qi is deficient or obstructed it may be diseased or susceptible to illness. Acupu... Read More

Acupuncture stimulates the balance and flow of Qi energy that in Traditional Chinese Medicine is considered essential to health. When the body is healthy, Qi (pronounced chee), flows smoothly through the meridians that make up a conceptual network of pathways throughout the entire body. When the balance or flow of Qi is deficient or obstructed it may be diseased or susceptible to illness. Acupuncture treats both the symptoms and the root causes of the patient’s illness.
In North America acupuncture is often used when western medicine has failed. In western medicine the yin/yang balance it achieves is known as homeostasis.
How does it work?
Acupuncture is an ancient, safe and effective alternative to medication and, in some cases, surgery. It stimulates the release of endorphins – the body’s natural pain-relieving neurohormones – through the insertion of needles into specific anatomical points (acupuncture points) to encourage natural healing. Therapeutic effects include:
Pain relief
Increased energy
Improved mood
Improved body function
Atraumatic acupuncture needles are rounded at the tip so that they slide smoothly through tissue and are unlikely to cause bleeding. Needles are left in place for 15 to 30 minutes during which time the practitioner may manipulate the needles in order to strengthen or reduce the flow of Qi.
Are there similar therapies that don’t use a needle?
Related techniques include acupressure which involves the application of pressure on acupuncture points using thumbs or fingers. Electrical or laser stimulation may also be used.

Dr. Dave Blocksom Dc 1762 Acu 43845-16

I was born and raised in Hanna Alberta. In 2010, I graduated from Texas Chiropractic College in Houston Texas and have been practicing in central Alberta ever since. Experiencing medical rotations in upper extremity orthopedics, neurosurgery, nutrition and learning from the experience of numerous different chiropractors has enabled the unique perspective to accelerate patient healing. I have a passion to treat individuals and families in the community with chiropractic, I am continually taking courses every year to further my knowledge. In 2016 I completed my Acupuncture studies to further help my patients. My goal is to empower people towards optimal health. When I am not working I enjoy spending time with my wife Jacquie and boys Collin, Joey and Sam.

I also have a chiropractic clinic in the great community of Trochu.

Chelsey Dobbyn RMT NHPC 23363

I first became a Registered Massage Therapist in 2005 and have loved all massage has had to offer. I believe body work can have such an impact on clients both mentally and physically. Over the years I have worked in both Spa and Massage Clinic settings but never a Chiropractic Clinic. I am very much looking forward to all there is to learn from this new atmosphere. Modalities that work well together being offered under the same roof makes sense and couldn’t be more convenient for clients.

When I am not massaging, I am usually staying busy with my family. We are all horse crazy so most of the time we are out horse back riding!

Treatments I offer are relaxation, therapeutic, prenatal and dynamic cupping massage.
