Edwards, CO – In the pursuit of optimal performance and recovery, mountain athletes are turning to All Mountain Sports Acupuncture, where a combination of acupuncture, massage, and sports medicine provides a holistic treatment experience.
Located in Edwards, the clinic integrates various therapeutic modalities to expedite recovery from injuries and enhance overall athletic performance. Clients benefit from a seamless treatment process, eliminating the need for multiple appointments. Acupuncturists Johnny Howell and Marty Tarantino employ their expertise in both Traditional Chinese Medicine and sports medicine to diagnose and treat patients, followed by targeted soft tissue work from a licensed massage therapist within the same session.
“What sets us apart is our integrated approach,” Howell explains. “Combining massage, acupuncture, and dry needling yields more effective results. This is the type of treatment top athletes receive.”
With two decades of experience treating mountain athletes in the Vail Valley and professionals across sports like the NFL, MLB, and the U.S. Ski Team, Howell is well-equipped to address the unique needs of active individuals. He also dedicates time to volunteer with local charities, including Vail Veterans.
The clinic utilizes a blend of traditional techniques, such as cupping and herbal remedies, alongside modern advancements like electro-acupuncture and vitamin B injections. For example, Howell might address an energetic imbalance with acupuncture and subsequently apply dry needling to alleviate tightness in a hamstring or back muscle. “A good dry needling session can be as effective as five massages,” he notes.
The team’s precision and depth of experience are critical to their success. Howell emphasizes the importance of accurate diagnosis, stating, “We excel at identifying muscle imbalances and addressing them. Our approach considers both posture and mobility, as well as underlying energetic dysfunctions caused by factors like repetitive movements or diet.”
In addition to focusing on sports injuries and prevention, Howell and Tarantino also treat general health concerns within their welcoming clinic environment. “When you walk in, you’re treated like family,” Howell affirms. “That sense of community is vital in a small area like ours.”
As more athletes seek integrated treatment solutions, All Mountain Sports Acupuncture stands out as a comprehensive resource for those looking to maintain peak performance and well-being.
