27 Injury Prevention Tips & Tricks for Runners: Acupuncture

Acupuncture helps release tight muscles so that the body’s structure can return to normal. It does so by needling the tight muscle directly and getting it to release and return to a more normal state. When muscles get tight and pull on the bones they attach to it creates pain. An injury like runner’s knee is often caused by tight quad muscles because those muscles attach to the knee and more specifically to the patellar tendon that runs into the knee. When the quads are tight they pull on the knee and can move the tracking of the patella out of place which results in pain. Releasing a tight quad muscle will restore the muscle back to it’s normal length and help the patella move back into place which will reduce the pain due to the patella being slightly out of place. Acupuncture can also help prevent running injuries by keeping muscles loose and identifying any possible areas of weakness or imbalance.
