Lorraine’s Acupuncture Recovery Story | Shoulder Tendon Tear, Bursitis & Tennis Elbow

After struggling with severe shoulder and elbow pain, Lorraine shares how acupuncture helped her regain movement and return to daily activities.

Severe Shoulder and Elbow Pain After Kickboxing

Lorraine, 53, developed a tendon tear and bursitis in her left shoulder following kickboxing. She was also suffering from severe tennis elbow in her right arm.

The pain significantly affected her everyday life.

Her left shoulder was so painful that she could barely lift her arm, and even ordinary household tasks had become difficult.

Physiotherapy Had Not Provided Much Relief

Before visiting our clinic, Lorraine had attended several physiotherapy sessions.

Unfortunately, she did not experience much improvement, and the ongoing pain continued to interfere with her daily activities.

After a friend recommended Dr Win Huang, she decided to try acupuncture.

Her Experience After Acupuncture Treatment

After several acupuncture treatments, Lorraine noticed significant changes.

She reported that her left shoulder pain had reduced considerably and that she could raise her arm much more comfortably.

Her right tennis elbow also improved, with the pain almost completely disappearing.

For Lorraine, being able to move her arm again and manage everyday activities was an important part of her recovery.
