A new home health clinic in Severn Township offers a variety of alternative treatments for pain management.
The acupuncture clinic is owned and run by Shane McLean, a registered Traditional Chinese Medicine acupuncturist and health and lifestyle coach, who opened his newly renovated clinic at his home on Marchmont Road in Severn, about 10 minutes outside Orillia, late last year.
His home clinic offers a variety of treatments including muscle and joint pain, women’s health, headaches, digestion, mental health, insomnia, fatigue, blood pressure, post-stroke recovery, Parkinson’s disease and weight loss.
“What I offer at my family clinic has a personal touch and is patient-centered. Being a patient-centered clinic, to me, means one treatment at a time, no rushed appointment times, no waiting rooms and no passing by other patients,” McLean said.
“I also like to incorporate a combination of Traditional Chinese Medicine acupuncture techniques. Each treatment may include electroacupuncture, cupping, gua sha and/or tuina massage,” McLean explained.
Cupping is a manual therapy that uses suction to massage muscles while simultaneously drawing stagnant blood and fluids out of the muscles, improving lymphatic flow and helping to flush toxins and metabolic waste from these areas.
The Gua Sha is a linear tool that uses pressure similar to a massage to massage the muscles, open pores, and relieve muscle tension.
Tuina massage is a Chinese style of massage, just as Japanese Shiatsu, Thai massage originated in Thailand and Swedish massage in Sweden. RMT is the most modern approach to massage and is mainstream in our society.
“Another area I am researching in more depth is electroacupuncture. By applying low-current stimulation at specific frequencies, the results for patients are even more pronounced,” MacLean said.
