When assessing pain it is important to distinguish between acute and chronic pain issues. With acute pain correcting muscle disfunction might be an adequate treatment approach. Chronic pain, however, can develop a complex pattern within the brain and may require a multi system targeted treatment to help decrease sensitivity to stimuli from the environment and stress as well as blocking pain signals through the nervous system.

Having tried massage, chiropractic treatments, and more pillows and mattresses than I can count to help with my neck pain, some friends suggested acupuncture and offered up Milwaukee Urban Acupuncture as the place to try.
I loved that I could book the appointment online, it's just so much more convenient for my work schedule to pop into a website between meetings and find a time that works for my calendar. Having the prices available on the site was also appreciated. The location was easy to find and I snagged parking right across the street, another bonus.
Anne was very nice and thorough in

MUA is a gem, one we're very fortunate to have here in Riverwest! This is the kind of healthcare (as opposed to "sick" care) more of us should take advantage of, especially in this economy where adequate western healthcare (or, more often, any at all) is far from a given for many. I've been in for both acupuncture and massage. Anne and Johanna are amazing humans. I love that the business is committed to being part of the Riverwest community. The space itself is inspiring and relaxing, and a great place to duck into during the long Wisconsin winter that's around the corner. 10/10 would recommend
