I can’t say enough good things about Jim and Valley Acupuncture. I suffered from a 6 month headache due to a dental procedure when I first came to see him. This was after seeing many md’s including a neurologist at Rush in Chicago. All they wanted to do was push drugs on me. The last thing I needed or wanted. Jim showed so much care and confidence. Although it took some time, because I waited so long to see him,... Read more »
Kara is the reason my husband and I are now parents. She is absolutely amazing. I went to her after having an unsuccessful IVF transfer and things completely changed from there on. She not only helped my body to prepare for the next transfer but she also guided me with other helpful tips such as foods and products to avoid. She is truly concerned about your wellbeing and overall success. I received treatments from her throughout the entire pregnancy and... Read more »
Dr Jim is so professional and all around nice! I’m so glad I found him. I have ongoing hip pain from a running injury and nothing has served to really keep the pain at bay like acupuncture. I have been to others and he is definitely one of the best! Thanks Dr Jim! AS, Naperville

ElectroAcupuncture
Electroacupuncture: Ancient Wisdom, Modern Current
The clinic was quiet except for the soft hum of a small device on the treatment table. A runner lay comfortably, acupuncture needles placed along her calf and lower back to address chronic pain that kept her from her regular running routine.
Because of the chronic and nagging injury, she turned to acupuncture to find healing. But it wasn’t quite what she expected. Rather than simply resting with the needles inserted, the practitioner gently attached thin leads to several of the needles and turned on a device that sent a gentle electrical current through them. A subtle pulsing sensation began, almost like tiny waves moving through her muscles. Within minutes, she felt her body responding, warming, releasing.
This therapy was electroacupuncture, a technique blending the longstanding principles of traditional acupuncture with modern electrical stimulation. continue reading
Why You Should Try Electroacupuncture for Pain Management
For those suffering from chronic pain, traditional medications only provide temporary relief and can come with side effects that leave people feeling sluggish and unwell. Electroacupuncture combines traditional acupuncture with electrical stimulation, enhancing its effectiveness for managing pain and promoting healing. By delivering gentle electrical pulses through the acupuncture needles, this modern approach stimulates nerves, muscles, and connective tissues, offering a potent and scientifically backed method for pain management. Recent studies underscore the growing recognition of electroacupuncture as a safe and effective therapy for various pain conditions. continue reading
What is Electroacupuncture?
While you might be familiar with what acupuncture is, have you ever heard of electroacupuncture? Just like traditional acupuncture, electroacupuncture uses needles on various acupuncture points. The difference comes in that with electroacupuncture, a small electrode is attached to the needles which allows a small amount of electricity to pass through, giving a slight vibration or low hum during treatment.
