Arthritis in Frederick

Supporting Mobility, Comfort, and Quality of Life

Arthritis is a chronic condition that causes inflammation and stiffness in the joints, often leading to pain, reduced mobility, and difficulty with daily activities. It can affect people of all ages, though it becomes more common with age. While there is no cure for arthritis, natural therapies can help relieve discomfort, improve joint function, and enhance overall well-being.

At Acupuncture Medical Clinic of Maryland in Frederick, our licensed acupuncturist provides gentle, non-invasive care to support patients living with osteoarthritis, rheumatoid arthritis, and other inflammatory joint conditions.

How Acupuncture Helps Arthritis

Acupuncture works by stimulating specific points in the body to promote circulation, reduce inflammation, and encourage the release of natural pain-relieving chemicals. For arthritis patients, acupuncture may help decrease joint pain and stiffness, improve flexibility, and support better movement. It also helps regulate immune function and reduce the stress response—key factors in managing chronic inflammation and pain.

In addition to traditional acupuncture, advanced therapies such as Electro-Acupuncture, ATP Resonance BioTherapy®, and O3 ReBoot Therapy® may be incorporated to enhance results. These complementary treatments can help accelerate healing, reduce oxidative stress, and improve energy balance throughout the body.
