STATEN ISLAND, N.Y., July 31, 2017 (GLOBE NEWSWIRE) -- Staten Island residents now have a new option when it comes to treatment for back pain, headaches, menopause, infertility, and other ailments as Seitai Acupuncture announces the opening of its third location. The center focuses on Japanese acupuncture and herbology, also referred to as Kampo, to help patients feel their best and reduce pain.
In contrast to traditional Chinese acupuncture, the techniques applied at Seitai Acupuncture utilize thinner needles and a shallower insertion process.
“Japanese acupuncture has been around for centuries and is very beneficial for treating injuries by promoting natural healing,” says founder of Seitai Acupuncture, Boris Shapiro, L. Ac., MSTOM. “Essentially what happens is fine needles are inserted in the spot on your body where you are experiencing trouble, which directs inflammation to that area. The reaction triggers healing in that targeted spot, which then enables you to heal faster and provides natural pain relief.”
Examples of treatments include those for chronic and acute headaches, neck pain, back pain, sciatica, and post-accident muscle pain. Individuals suffering from anxiety and depression have additionally reported benefits from engaging in regular acupuncture sessions.
“We also have a number of female patients who have benefited from women-specific treatments at our centers,” continues Shapiro. “Acupuncture is excellent for helping with PMS, menopause, and infertility. And it can also reduce certain symptoms related to pregnancy.”
In addition, Seitai Acupuncture also offers cosmetic services for reducing fine lines, treating acne, tightening pores, and promoting total health and well-being.
Related to Japanese acupuncture, Kampo involves incorporating herbs into the process for a maximum impact and natural relief.
“In a world where so many doctors are over prescribing pharmaceuticals, we are happy to provide New York, Brooklyn, and Staten Island residents with this type of treatment,” remarks Shapiro.
The new Staten Island office is located at 1658 Hylan Boulevard on Hylan Boulevard between Alter and Cromwell Avenue. Schedule your appointment by calling (347) 861-0909.
