E-stim supplies

Electroacupuncture in Capitola & Scotts Valley, CA

Electricacupuncture or "e-stim" sends mild electrical pulses through the skin to help stimulate injured muscles or manipulate nerves to reduce pain. Although electric stimulation is commonly used in physical therapy to constrict muscles and reduce pain, the inclusion of acupuncture needles allows the stimulation to penetrate deeper than if delivered through a superficial patch on the skin. Use simultaneously with acupuncture, e-stim increases the strength of the treatment with regards to pain management and relief.

Up-Regulation of Cell Metabolism and Tissue Repair

Electro-acupuncture has become increasingly popular over the last 20 years. Although the effects of acupuncture are still not fully understood, research has shown a strong correlation between electro-acupuncture and anti-inflammatory effects, the increase of blood and lymphatic flow, and analgesic effects through the release of opioid endorphins and serotonin. It is suggested that electro-acupuncture may also be linked to the up-regulation of cell metabolism and tissue repair and facilitate neuro-muscular stimulation and re-education.

Solis helped me gain strength and energy after my chemotherapy treatments. Jenny recommended vitamins and herbs as well as targeted Accupuncture and message that help with my recovery and allow me to sleep better.I also received treatment after a broken arm and shoulder surgery. They are helping with mobility, scar reduction and pain relief. I notice an improvement each time I visit and feel the treatments are definitely worth my time and money.
I have consistently received excellent care at Solis Acupuncture. I was referred from my primary care doctor at Kaiser for ongoing pain from an injury, and acupuncturist Jessica Powell was able to knock it out after just a handful of visits. She is incredibly knowledgeable, intuitive, and caring. I highly recommend her expertise to anyone.I also found the entire Solid team to be professional and caring, and the facilities are clean and welcoming.

I’ve been suffering with chronic SI pain for several years. Since starting my treatment with Solis acupuncture a few months ago I’m finally getting relief from my pain!Thank you so much Solis Acupuncture, your team is the best!!!
When I arrived, my lower back had locked up,with muscles in spasm. I could barely bend. When I left an hour later, I could touch my toes!
Solis acupuncture is a model of compassionate health care. And an inspiration for what excellent healthcare can be. From the whole experience of checking in with Summer to getting the treatments. I felt heard and seen in a way I had never been before. Jenny and Sarah are incredible practitioners! They excelled in searching for the root of my health issues, while also being present to the issues I was bringing in on that day. They had excellent questions to ask me and would follow up with what I told them in the past. They have given me a lot of insight into my health issues and have changed the way I think about health care providers.I'd highly recommend them to anyone seeking acupuncture and holistic health care!
