Traditional acupuncture is based on the belief that the body is controlled by a flow of energy, referred to as qi, and pronounced "chee." According to ancient texts, qi travels through pathways in your body called meridians. Acupuncturists believe that interruptions with energy flow in these meridians are responsible for modern ailments.
Acupuncture improves your body's functions and helps boost its self-healing processes through anatomic site stimulation - usually called acupuncture points. To stimulate acupuncture points, professionals typically insert fine, sterile needles you're your skin. Most patients feel little-to-no discomfort as the needles are applied. Typically, needles are left in the skin anywhere from five to 30 minutes. After their session, patients often report an incredible feeling of relaxation.
While some practitioners still adhere to traditional acupuncture philosophies, modern acupuncturists take an integrative approach. Today, professional acupuncturists use the therapy to stimulate the body's natural healing and pain-fighting processes. When coupled with personalized chiropractic care and physical therapy, patients can find real relief from painful physical conditions.
At Denville Medical, your licensed physical therapist's goal is to maximize your body's structure and increase its overall function for long-term health. To accomplish this, our physical therapists combine traditional and innovative techniques focused on increasing muscle strength and improving the body's range of motion. Our goal is to discover the root cause of your pain or mobility problems. That way, we can address the true reason why you need physical therapy, and work towards achieving long-lasting relief.
Of course, we understand that every patient is different. Your doctor can provide expert care in an encouraging environment by creating a customized treatment plan for you using modern, evidence-based research.
Professional acupuncture treatments can be incredibly helpful for patients suffering from a wide range of disorders. When paired with personalized chiropractic care and other medical treatments, acupuncture is even more effective.
With a systematic treatment plan, patients can find help for painful symptoms like:
Professionals practicing acupuncture in Denville, NJ, use several techniques to achieve overall patient wellbeing, from Cupping and Gua Sha to Needling and Facials.
Made popular by Olympic swimmer Michael Phelps, most acupuncturists describe cupping as giving an inverse massage. Rather than using pressure to release tight muscles, acupuncture cups create a suction effect. The suction pulls on muscles and fascia to relieve tension and improve blood flow. Like a massage, cupping is very relaxing for patients. Most people describe it as enjoyable, although the suction cup markings may look painful to friends and family.
Acupuncture cups are made using various materials, including glass and plastic. Cupping applications also vary - some clinics go the traditional route with cotton balls, rubbing alcohol, and fire. Other applications include manual placement with silicone suction points. Usually, patients receive one of two cupping styles. The first uses stationary cups, which remain for about 10 minutes. The second uses moving cups, supplemented with massage oil to let the cups glide over painful areas.
Also called "dry needling," chiropractors and acupuncturists often use this technique to reduce trigger points within soft tissues and muscles. In this application, acupuncturists use a sterile needle and insert it into the trigger point, which fosters a feeling of "release" that helps reduce muscle tension and pain while boosting mobility.
Trigger points are hypersensitive, irritable skeletal muscle areas formed in rigid bands of muscle fiber. Trigger points lead to neuromuscular dysfunction and manifest in painful symptoms, increased stress, and lower overall functionality. During an acupuncture session, these needles are applied to trigger points, which cause a twitch, essentially releasing and restoring proper muscle function.
Gua Sha is the practice of using tools to scrape the skin and apply pressure to painful areas of the face and body. A Gua Sha is a flat, hard tool, usually made of stone. Recently, Gua Sha has taken the skincare world by storm, but the technique has been providing relief for centuries. It is one of the oldest forms of Chinese medicine used to boost blood circulation and energy flow.
In traditional Chinese, Gua means to press or stroke, while Sha refers to redness. Gua Sha usually causes small red spots or bruises to form, which are also called microtrauma spots. When using Gua Sha on microtrauma areas, your body elicits a response that can help break up tough scar tissue. When paired with professional chiropractic care, Gua Sha can be quite effective, even for moderate injuries.

DENVILLE, NJ - A "catastrophic failure" of Denville's main well water pump is forcing the imposition of mandatory water restrictions in the township, officials announced Friday.
Effective Monday, May 22, outdoor water use will be restricted for all residential and commercial properties. The restrictions will stay in effect for 90 days unless repealed or extended, said the township
"The mandatory water restrictions are in place to ensure an adequate water supply for water customers and fire protection service," it said. "The restrictions have become immediately necessary as the industrial pump in the township’s primary well suffered a catastrophic failure and as a result has placed considerable stress on the other potable wells in our system. According to our vendors, the timeframe to have our primary well up and running is approximately two (2) to three (3) months."
Properties with even number addresses will be allowed outside water use on even number days and those having odd number addresses on odd days, the township said. It stressed that the rule includes all businesses operating from or at a residential address.
"Outdoor water usage shall include the watering of lawns, shrubs, ornamental plants, sod, etc., as well as the washing of homes/commercial businesses windows, driveways, sidewalks, gutters and homes," said the statement. "The restrictions also include the washing of automobiles, trucks, ATVs, boats, etc. If a commercial business is to complete work at a household, we will hold the water restrictions to the odd/even number of the home in accordance with the water restrictions in place."
However, the township stressed that businesses "that rely and survive on outdoor water use, whose business address is separate from a residential address, such as car washes, nurseries, power washing companies, etc., will be exempt from the odd/even water restrictions."
It said the odd/even water restrictions "will remain in effect for offices and commercial buildings as it pertains to lawn watering, window washing, power washing, etc., for any non-essential work and/or updates."
Multi-family dwellings, including apartment style housing, will be only permitted to use outdoor water on odd days," said Denville. On even days, such water usage is prohibited.
The town urged residents and business to voluntarily observe and implement indoor water conservation measures and said "property owners who violate the above water restrictions shall be subject to a municipal summons, along with fine and penalties associated therewith."

The warehouse would be built on a 19-acre site that became township-owned property through a tax sale almost four decades ago. The last year sold it to Vanderhoof LLC for about $6.4 million.
Denville Mayor Thomas Andes praised the deal that will enable the site’s development.
“The township and its professionals worked collaboratively with Cervenka Development Partners to create a plan that provides so much benefit to our community,” Andes said in the press release. “This project truly represents smart growth and is a win-win for everyone involved, including the citizens of Denville.”
The proposed building will feature a 36-foot clear height, 18 loading bays, one drive-in door, 52 car parking spaces and 13 trailer parking spaces, according to the announcement. It noted the site is close to Routes 80, 287 and 95 “providing access to 10 million people within a 30-minute drive time and 20 million people within an hour.”
“In my 12 years as mayor, we have continuously strived to increase the strength of our financial position through conservative budgetary policies,” Andes is quoted as saying. “This project and our partnership with CDP and Monocle Group is an integral part of a 5-year plan to be one of only a handful of municipalities in the state of New Jersey that are completely debt-free.”
CDP Principal Tom Cervenka is also quoted in the statement.
“We couldn’t have asked for a better team to execute this acquisition,” he said. “The town of Denville and Mayor Andes have been incredible to work with, while our JLL Capital Markets team brought an amazing equity partner to the table with the Monocle Group.”
Also weighing in was Monocle Group Principal Eric Benitez.
“We are thrilled to have been introduced to Tom and Sasha through our relationship with the JLL Capital Markets team,” he said. “CDP was able to secure this site at a cost basis that will enable us to achieve an above-market return on the deal. CDP has brought this project to the cusp of site plan approval, and we cannot wait to carry this through to completion together.”
The JLL Capital Markets Investment Sales team was led by Managing Director Marc Duval, Director Jason Lundy, Managing Director Jordan Avanzato, Director Nicholas Stefans and Senior Managing Director Jose Cruz, according to the press release, which noted that Joel Lubin and his team will be handling the leasing for the project.
“JLL was able to bring several investors to the table despite a period of volatility in the capital markets environment and that speaks greatly to the strategic sponsor, Cervenka Development Partners,” Duval said.
“Investors were attracted to the opportunity, given CDP’s diligent and forward approach as well as the strong industrial fundamentals in Morris County,” Lundy added.

Recycling
The team collects plastic bags and wrapping and works with Trex, a company that turns plastic into useful items like benches and wind chimes. The team has also been working with the Denville Township Green Team and the Oaks at Denville to collect the items.
At Halloween, the Green Team also collected candy wrappers and used markers for recycling.
Tower Gardens
With the help of Business Administrator Damaris Gurowsky, the Green Team received a grant to purchase indoor tower gardens. The gardens, which are tended by the students at Valleyview Middle School, have produced several packages of arugula.
Sustainable Sunday
On June 11, 2024 the Green Team will participate in Sustainable Sunday. The community event will be held at the Denville Farmers Market, 51 Bloomfield Ave. in Denville from 8:30 a.m. to 1 p.m. During the event students will share fun and educational activities about birds, ecosystems and the impact of climate change.
Denville Board of Education Member James Kim spoke about the district’s instructional space, demographic report and new housing developments in town. Kim is a member of the Denville Space Considerations Ad Hoc Committee along with Dino Cappello, Andrea Zeydelis, Denville Schools Superintendent Steven Forte and Sandra Cullis.
The Space Considerations Committee is studying “the immediate and long-range instructional space needs of the district, investigating, proposing and reporting solutions” due to the growth in residential development of the township.
Kim provided valuable information to the Board and public as it relates to the district’s mission and strategic plan. Additionally, the committee’s presentation examined past enrollment to future demographic projections and compared the data against the capacity of the district’s buildings.
Data points for the demographic projections were found in the “Demographic Study for the Denville Township School District, January 2022,”compiled by Richard Grip of Statistical Forecasting, LLC.
The committee’s presentation states that, “Based on 2023/24 Enrollments and current BOE policy, the District could take on 555 additional students.”
In its “Final Assessment,” the committee’s presentation also states that, “Based on the projected future enrollments of roughly 2,000 students by 2026/2027 School Year and based on Policy 2312 - Class Size, the Denville School District will be able to meet the space requirements needed to educate the students enrolled.”
However, the committee indicates in the presentation that there is a risk of variations from the projections that could result in a beyond capacity situation that could exceed current policy. Therefore, the committee made several “Immediate Recommendations” including the implementation of a monitoring system.
That would involve announcing student enrollment numbers monthly and could involve commissioning a new forecast analysis if the forecast discrepancy exceeds 3 percent to 5 percent or when the current forecast becomes outdated in December 2026.
Another recommendation sets timeframes for expanding the second floor of Riverview Annex.
The committee’s presentation to the Board can be found on the www.denville.org website under Board of Education Presentations and Notices.
A video of the presentation and the entire meeting can be found on the Denville Township School District’s YouTube Channel.
