our approach

how we provide relief from Back Pain

At Weng’s Acupuncture & Herbs Clinic in San Diego, we employ a combination of time-honored techniques to provide effective relief from back pain. Recognizing the unique nature of each individual’s pain, we adopt a natural approach, primarily using acupuncture to target specific meridians, which not only addresses the localized pain but also treats the root causes. Tui Na massage is employed to relax the muscles, enhance circulation, and improve mobility around the affected area. Additionally, herbal formulations are prescribed to restore internal balance, further assisting in pain relief and muscle relaxation. Every therapeutic intervention is tailored to the specific needs of the patient, ensuring optimal results and holistic healing.

I was recommended to Wengs and I am so glad I found this place. Really relaxing and healing atmosphere. I've been dealing with a difficult situation of pain and pelvic pressure and bladder issues for a long time. Dr. Vivian is amazing. I am finding relief without medication or surgery. I have never done acupuncture before but I am an advocate for it now.

Navigating Back Pain: Your Questions Answered

Dealing with health issues, regardless of their nature, often leads to a myriad of questions and concerns. Understanding the root causes, the symptoms, and most crucially, the effective treatment options can sometimes feel overwhelming. Recognizing the need for clarity and guidance, we’ve assembled a list of frequently asked questions tailored to address common health conditions for the people of San Diego.

Back pain, a prevalent complaint, can arise from a multitude of sources and is often a complex interplay of muscle, nerve, and bone issues. It can be acute, usually resulting from trauma or misuse, lasting for a few days to weeks, or chronic, persisting for over three months. Factors such as spinal disc problems, lumbar strain, nerve irritation, and bone encroachment can all contribute. Other potential origins include congenital spine abnormalities, infections, tumors, or conditions like scoliosis. Understanding the root cause is crucial, as back pain is not a monolithic ailment but a symptom of various underlying issues.

If you are suffering from back pain and are located in the San Diego, CA area, we urge you to book a consultation with our incredible staff. At your consultation, we will dive into the root cause of your symptoms, develop a results-based action plan, and assist you on your journey to a happier, healthier, and pain-free life.

While pain, either sharp or dull, localized or radiating, is the hallmark of this condition, back pain can manifest a range of symptoms. Many patients report stiffness, a burning sensation, or a throbbing ache. The pain may radiate to other parts of the body, often down the legs, indicating possible nerve involvement. Muscle spasms or tightness, reduced flexibility, and difficulty in maintaining an upright posture are other common symptoms. In more severe cases, tingling or numbness in the limbs might be present, signaling nerve compression or other related issues.

At Weng’s Acupuncture & Herbs Clinic in San Diego, CA, our approach to treating back pain is rooted in the holistic principles of Traditional Chinese Medicine (TCM). Recognizing that each individual’s experience with pain is unique, we tailor our treatment plans to the specific needs of the patient. Typically, acupuncture is at the forefront of our therapeutic interventions, targeting specific meridians to restore the balance of “Qi” or energy flow, consequently alleviating pain and inflammation. Tui Na massage is frequently incorporated to improve muscle flexibility, enhance circulation, and reduce muscular tension around the affected area. Herbal medicine, another cornerstone of our practice, is often prescribed to address internal imbalances that might be contributing to the pain. Additionally, for those who might benefit, therapies such as cupping or nutritional guidance are integrated into the treatment plan to promote holistic healing. Our goal is to treat not just the symptom of back pain but its root causes, ensuring a long-lasting relief and overall well-being.

Venturing into Traditional Chinese Medicine (TCM) offers a holistic avenue for addressing back pain. Within the TCM framework, pain is often a manifestation of disrupted energy flow or “Qi”. Acupuncture, therefore, is used to correct these imbalances, channeling energy effectively and promoting self-healing. Tui Na massage complements acupuncture, focusing on the muscles and joints, facilitating increased blood flow and hastening recovery. Herbal remedies in TCM aim to nourish the body from within, addressing not just the symptoms but the systemic imbalances leading to back pain. TCM’s focus on the interconnection of physical and mental well-being ensures that back pain is treated not in isolation but as a part of the whole body’s harmony and balance.
