Point Injection Therapy
Initial Evalution and Treatment
Point Injection Therapy
Point Injection Therapy can be a stand-alone treatment or used with acupuncture to powerfully address pain and chronic tension. We target trigger points, or sore areas with knotted muscles, and we can target joints as well.
Stand-alone sessions include 2-3 sites for a total of 15 min. If done within an acupuncture treatment, it is included in the 60 min, available only to established patients with follow-up visit.

Acupuncture
Acupuncture utilizes the insertion of extremely fine needles (less than the width of a hair), that are placed along channels to rebalance our internal organ systems, relieve pain, and decrease stress. Acupuncture can function as a comprehensive stand-alone therapy, and also compliments other therapies, including chemotherapy, surgeries, medications, or physical therapy.
Along with treating pain, Acupuncture is extremely effective in treating digestive disorders, insomnia, headaches, sinus conditions, women's health issues, fatigue, stress, anxiety, depression, and more.
Chinese Herbal Medicine
Chinese herbal medicine is an ancient, highly elaborate system of natural healing that has been used by billions of people for all kinds of health conditions. Seattle Healing Acupuncture has a comprehensive herbal pharmacy of patents formulas and granules. The granule formulas are a customized blend of herbs to specifically fit each person. This is rare to find a medicine that is specific to each individual, which in turn makes for extremely effective results.
Chinese herbal medicine is a wonderful complement to acupuncture treatment, as it works on different substrates in the body and maintains continuity in therapeutic intervention. Acupuncture works on the level of energy by harmonizing the flow of Qi through the main energetic pathways of the body, while herbal medicine works on the blood and nourishment of the body. When used together, they can speed up the healing process and lead to faster and longer lasting results.
Point Injection Therapy
What is Point Injection Therapy?
Acupuncture Point Injection Therapy combines the time-tested wisdom of traditional acupuncture with modern botanical and medical science. By injecting micro-doses of sterile solutions (such as lidocaine, homeopathic remedies, or vitamins like B12) directly into specific acupuncture points or muscular trigger points, this target-driven treatment enhances local circulation and accelerates tissue repair. PIT provides continuous, amplified stimulation to the meridian network, offering fast and long-lasting relief for chronic pain, persistent muscle tension, inflammation, and low energy levels.
Injection therapy can be used for a variety of issues including:
- Headaches/migraines
- Neck and shoulder pain
- Lower back pain/sciatica
- Knee, hip, or joint pain
- Gynecological pain
- Muscle spasms
Injectables Used
We offer several different substances for PIT. Injections can contain one or several different substances, depending on the issue being treated. Your practitioner will discuss best options for you during your PIT intake.
- Homeopathic: We currently carry several homeopathic injectables, including Traumeel (for injury and inflammation), and Zeel (for joint stiffness and arthritis).
- Lidocaine: For pain relief. Often combined with a homeopathic for muscular trigger point release, or to create a non-steroidal option to a cortisone shot.
- Vitamin B12: An important vitamin for energy, nerve healing, proper sleep, and nervous system function.
- Glutathione: A powerful antioxidant that is vital to mitochondrial function, cellular repair, and DNA production. It's important in the liver detox path and can be effective in treating symptoms of chronic disease and inflammation.
- Tri-Immune Boost: An immunity formula cocktail of high dose glutathione, ascorbic acid (Vitamin C), and zinc. Important for immune function, decreasing inflammation, and increase wound healing.
