Trigger Point Dry Needling |
Trigger point dry needling is an advanced needling technique and the #1 therapy to treat painful muscle knots. One of my clients referred to it as, "a deep-tissue massage on steroids"; I am able to get to those deep or hard to reach knots often unable to be treated by massage using this specialty. In Pennsylvania and New Jersey, only licensed acupuncturists are able to perform this highly specialized technique. Learn more...

Electro-Acupuncture |
Electro-acupuncture is a style of acupuncture that uses electricity (E-Stim devices), to neuromodulate specific acupuncture or motor points in order facilitate the release of neuropeptides and neurotransmitters. This is a powerful treatment not only in treating pain, but also in restoring organ function (works wonders for overactive bladder, for example).

ExStore© Assessment |
Exstore© is a musculoskeletal assessment system developed by Dr. Anthony Lombardi that allows the practitioner to test specific muscles in order to more efficiently treat the underlying cause of injury, instead of solely focusing on the area of pain. This system allows practitioners to easily find areas of motor muscle inhibition and find the best treatment solution to restore function.

Brittany at Renew Acupuncture is the absolute best! I cannot recommend her enough. I came to Brittany struggling with knee pain that had been persisting for over 6 months and was making me absolutely miserable. As a avid exerciser, I did my best to slow down but I was eager to get back to my normal routine. I had been doing physical therapy for several months and although it was started to help, I was starting to think that I would never be able to get back to squatting heavy again without paying for it with a flare up for days. My PT (who is also awesome) recommended giving Brittany a try to help release some of my chronically tight muscles.I cannot believe how quickly I felt relief of pain that I thought would never go away after just a few sessions! After a few weeks, I am happy to report that not only has the knee pain gone away but has not returned at all in several month - even with lots of heavy squatting. Since then she has helped me with all sorts of other aches and pains. I had never done acupuncture before, but now I am a total believer and advocate - especially for you athletes out there! Definitely give Renew Acupuncture a try! -Jennifer via Facebook "I've been seeing Brittany once a week since October. She's always been extremely flexible with me about scheduling, very helpful in terms of explaining what is going on as my symptoms and the treatments change, very caring and compassionate, and invested in both me and in the work she is doing.She has also been very understanding of my sensitivity with regards to acupuncture and needles and has gone above and beyond in terms of making me feel at ease.The healing has also been extremely powerful, even though in my case, there is a ton of work still to be done. I can't recommend Brittany more highly, both in terms of the service she provides, and in terms of the way she does it." -Dan via Yelp I visit Brittany for trigger-point acupuncture. She is everything I could hope for in a provider - knowledgable, professional and always on time! Our weekly sessions have markedly improved my muscle pain and stiffness. In addition to regular trigger-point acupuncture, Brittany utilized moxibustion, gua sha and electric stimulation, which were more effective in treating specific injuries. She's very down-to-earth and a wonderful find here in Philadelphia. -Caroline via Facebook My intense and 24/7 neck pain of a decade went away in one session. I can't thank her enough for giving me this experience of pain-free existence. I almost gave up on myself after having tried everything else. Brittany is simply the best. -Gagandeep via Google |
