Acupuncture

At BCM Dr. Curtis Turner DC provide Contemporary Medical Acupuncture – this is a precise peripheral nerve stimulation technique in which acupuncture needles are inserted into specific sites and stimulated manually or with electricity for the therapeutic purpose of modulating abnormal activity of the nervous system and/or the endocrine, exocrine and immune systems, in pain syndromes, functional problems, and any diseases in which these modulatory mechanisms are available. The therapeutic goals and treatment targets are selected based on identified dysfunctions contributing to the clinical presentation of the symptoms. Sometimes Contemporary Medical Acupuncture treatments result in transient amelioration or disappearance of the symptoms, and other times results in permanent resolution of the dysfunction, especially when dysregulation of the nervous system was the underlying pathophysiological mechanism.
