Acupuncture and Cupping Therapy for Pain Management
Acupuncture and cupping are key components of Dr. Singh’s naturopathic care for both acute and chronic pain. These treatments promote circulation, reduce muscle tension, and help regulate the body’s natural healing processes.
Commonly treated conditions include:
- Back, neck, and shoulder pain
- Joint and muscle pain
- Headaches and migraines
- Nerve pain
- Stress-related tension and sleep disturbances
Cupping may be used alone or alongside acupuncture to enhance results and accelerate recovery.
What is naturopathic medicine?
Naturopathic medicine is a regulated health profession in British Columbia that combines modern scientific research with traditional medicine and natural therapies. It focuses on identifying and treating the root cause of illness rather than only managing symptoms. Licensed naturopathic doctors (NDs) are trained in areas such as physical medicine, botanical medicine, nutritional counselling, and lifestyle coaching, helping patients improve their overall health and manage acute and chronic conditions through natural, evidence-based care.
What education and training do naturopathic doctors have?
Naturopathic doctors complete a four-year program at an accredited naturopathic medical college, where they receive extensive education in biomedical sciences, clinical diagnosis, and integrative health care. Training includes courses in anatomy, biochemistry, pharmacology, and minor surgeries, alongside natural modalities like herbal medicine, nutrition, and acupuncture. Graduates must also pass North American board exams before becoming licensed naturopathic physicians in British Columbia and other regulated provinces.
IV and Injection Therapies
For patients experiencing fatigue, nutrient deficiencies, or chronic stress, Dr. Singh offers IV and injection therapies designed to optimize cellular health and energy levels.
Available treatments include:
- Meyer’s IV Drip: A blend of vitamins and minerals supporting energy, immunity, and recovery
- Glutathione IV: For detoxification and antioxidant support
- Iron Infusions: For treating iron deficiency and improving energy
- Vitamin B12 and MIC + B12 Injections: To support metabolism, mood, and nervous system health
- Vitamin D3 Injections: For immune and bone health, particularly beneficial in low-sunlight months
How are naturopathic treatments different from conventional medicine?
While conventional medicine often focuses on managing symptoms, naturopathic treatments aim to support the body’s natural ability to heal by addressing underlying causes of disease. Naturopathic doctors often collaborate with medical doctors and other health professionals, integrating complementary and alternative medicine approaches—such as acupuncture, botanical medicine, and nutrition counselling—with modern diagnostics and lab tests. This creates a balanced approach to care that bridges natural and conventional medicine for optimal health.
What can naturopathic physicians help with?
Licensed naturopathic doctors are trained as primary care practitioners who assess, diagnose, and manage a wide range of acute and chronic conditions. Common concerns treated include pain, stress, fatigue, hormonal imbalances, and digestive issues. They may use therapies such as acupuncture, cupping, herbal medicine, and nutritional counselling to support recovery and prevent illness. Naturopathic physicians also provide education on certain foods, supplements, and lifestyle changes to promote long-term health and wellbeing.
