Acupuncture for Joint Pain & Bursitis

Precision-Based Care for Pain Relief and Recovery

At Core Meridian Acupuncture in Newport Beach, we specialize in helping patients overcome musculoskeletal challenges through integrative, results-driven care. Whether you’re struggling with chronic joint pain, recovering from a sports injury, or dealing with inflammation from conditions like bursitis, our approach blends classical Chinese medicine with modern therapeutic techniques to help restore mobility, reduce pain, and promote long-term healing.

Acupuncture for Orthopedic Pain

Orthopedic pain can affect the neck, back, shoulders, hips, or knees and may interfere with work, daily activities, and athletic performance. Acupuncture for orthopedic pain improves circulation, reduces inflammation, and stimulates the body’s natural healing response. By releasing tight fascia and balancing the nervous system, patients often experience lasting relief without reliance on long-term medication.

Acupuncture for Joint Pain

Joint pain may result from arthritis, overuse, or injury. Our treatments target both acute flare-ups and chronic stiffness. Acupuncture for joint pain:

  • Reduces swelling and inflammation around joints

  • Increases range of motion and flexibility

  • Improves circulation to cartilage and connective tissue

  • Calms pain signals in the nervous system

Combined with cupping, gua sha, and near-infrared light therapy, acupuncture provides a comprehensive plan to restore comfort and function.

Acupuncture for Bursitis

Bursitis occurs when the small fluid-filled sacs around joints become inflamed, often in the shoulder, hip, or knee. Acupuncture for bursitis helps by:

  • Relieving inflammation and swelling

  • Increasing blood flow for faster healing

  • Relaxing surrounding muscles to reduce strain on the bursa

  • Supporting long-term prevention of recurrence

Patients often report decreased pain and improved mobility after a series of targeted sessions.

Sports Injury Acupuncture

Athletes and active individuals benefit greatly from sports injury acupuncture, which accelerates recovery while reducing downtime. Commonly treated injuries include:

  • Hamstring and quadriceps strains

  • Ankle sprains

  • Rotator cuff injuries

  • Tendonitis and overuse injuries

  • Post-surgical recovery

By stimulating tissue repair and modulating the inflammatory response, acupuncture supports both healing and performance enhancement.
