Course Description

This advanced clinical skills seminar is designed for practitioners looking to learn new skills in electroacupuncture to improve their clinical results treating a variety of musculoskeletal pain and dysfunction, particularly for athletes and sports injuries.

This program introduces a mixed-frequency electroacupuncture framework integrating low, medium, and high-frequency stimulation within a single treatment paradigm to simultaneously target pain modulation, neuromuscular activation, tissue desensitization, and functional recovery.

The curriculum is grounded in electroacupuncture literature demonstrating frequency-dependent neurophysiological effects, including differential activation of endogenous opioid systems and neuromuscular pathways. Participants will extend these principles into a clinically reasoned mixed-frequency model tailored to athletic populations.

Course Learning Objectives

Develop a comprehensive understanding of the neurophysiological mechanisms of acupuncture and electro-acupuncture.
Differentiate low-, medium-, and high-frequency stimulation and their physiological effects.
Apply mixed-frequency electro-needling strategies across musculoskeletal conditions.
Integrate anatomical, neurological, and tissue-healing principles into treatment planning.
Enhance return-to-play outcomes through targeted neuromodulation.
Build advanced clinical reasoning based on tissue stage and innervation patterns.

Summary of What’s Covered

Day 1 Summary: Posterior Chain & Running-Based Injuries

Hamstring strain – return-to-sprint progression and neuromuscular reactivation
Sacroiliac joint dysfunction – load transfer and pelvic stability in runners

Day 2 Summary: Tendon & Upper Extremity Performance Injuries

Patellar tendinopathy – explosive loading and deceleration control
Rotator cuff-related shoulder pain – overhead performance restoration
Wrist pain – load-bearing stability and grip performance
