It is clear to us that the idea of a hypodermic needle is not nearly as enticing as the relaxation of a massage. However, this procedure has excellent results for pain in the joints and especially in the spine, which is why it is certainly worth overcoming the reluctance to injections. The basis is the application of a small amount of carbon dioxide into the subcutaneous tissue - into the acupuncture points. Possible initial unpleasant sensations of freezing are quickly replaced by spreading warmth and pain relief. Pneumopuncture also increases blood flow to the treated tissue.
Pneumopuncture is suitable:
- For pain in the locomotor system - joints and spine.
- To reduce muscle tension.
- To favorably influence the activity of internal organs as part of the reflex effect.
This treatment is not suitable for seriously and acutely ill persons and pregnant women.
How pneumopuncture is performed
After entering the room, you put away the appropriate parts of the clothing according to the application site. The worker will wash their hands and put on disposable gloves, then place you on a couch or chair. He disinfects the skin and applies a small amount of carbon dioxide subcutaneously to the designated places with a sterile thin needle. It monitors your reactions and if the spots are bleeding, it will cover them with a band-aid.
After the treatment, 1-2 hours of rest are recommended for full absorption of carbon dioxide.
Pneumopuncture is a medical treatment sold only on the recommendation of a doctor.
