The purpose of the Boulder Sports Acupuncture Blog is education. Topics will range from acupuncture, diet and nutrition, training, insight into common sports injuries, narratives on local athletes, and articles submitted by the readers. The information will provide a closer look into the stories and people of our community as well as personal discussions of the health and maintenance of our mind and bodies as it pertains to Chinese Medicine.

On Fridays, a new question will be asked in what I am calling the “Friday Symposium”. Readers will have an opportunity to express their opinions and experiences regarding a topic. There is no perspective, degree, or area of expertise that has all the answers. By sharing our collective knowledge and educating each other, it is my hope we can have a greater understanding of our world.

Thank you,
Steven

Group Ride Fantastic!


Group ride this Sunday morning the 29th!!! Meeting at the office of Boulder Sports Acupuncture (2935 Base Line Road) at 9:50. Leaving at 10:00 sharp:) The ride is about 35ish miles. From the office we head north up 36, right on Nelson, get our way out to 75th turn right and come home by the way of Avery's! I've heard they have excellent adult recovery beverages! This is a mellow group ride. Come one come all. Invite a friend if you wish.

Endometriosis Awareness Month


Cheers to women's health! Did you know March is endometriosis awareness month? In this painful condition endometrial tissue grows outside of the uterus and causes terrible pelvic pain. Endometriosis affects 5.5 million women in the US. This condition can also cause painful menses, infertility, lower back pain, and more.

Western medicine treats the symptoms of endometriosis with painkillers, surgery, birth control pills, and hormone therapy with only symptomatic relief and many times the treatments will create side effects.

Acupuncture studies have repeatedly shown a huge success rate in treating dysmenorrhea and endometriosis. So why wait? You DO NOT have to suffer intense pain every month!

For more information on treatments and how you or a loved one can be helped, call or email Boulder Sports Acupuncture TODAY!

Weekend Riding...

Warpony

And what a great weekend it was. I had an AWESOME time riding with my buddies Tim and Mat despite the wind, which we seemed to find every time it was blowing! I was able to log 90 miles in January. Our town is amazing!
See you on the road,
Steven

Included is a picture of my trusted war pony. Well ridden through so much and never once complained.
