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 Madison, 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.
At Denville Medical, we aim to serve you with long-lasting quality of life through personalized acupuncture treatments in New Jersey. The path to a pain-free life begins with a friendly, informative appointment, where one of our doctors develops a customized treatment plan tailored to your body's needs.

MORRISTOWN, NJ - Free tree seedlings will be available to residents as part of the New Jersey Forest Service’s Tree Recovery Campaign, a program focused on helping communities replace trees damaged or destroyed by severe storms.
Free tree seedlings will be available on April 12 at Madison Borough Hall at 9am.
Residents are able to obtain up to five free tree seedlings. Seedlings are available on a first come, first served basis. Residents will be provided with a care guide that addresses seedling storage, general care, and identifying an appropriate planting location. The guides help residents choose the right place on a property to plant a tree while keeping in mind the tree’s full-grown size in the future. Residents should plant the seedlings within two days after pick-up in order to prevent the roots from drying out.

In New Jersey, the goal was to distribute over 700,000 tree seedlings over the course of eight years. While that target was met in 2020, natural disasters such as Hurricane Sandy, along with damage caused by various new invasive insects, the need for more new tree seedlings continues with the campaign moving into its 9th year.
Among many other benefits, trees improve the visual appeal of neighborhoods and business districts, increase property values, reduce home cooling costs, remove air pollutants, and provide wildlife habitat, said commission officials.

MADISON, NJ – It was a cloudy day in the skies and on the softball field for Madison Friday afternoon as the Dodgers lost to Morris Catholic 15-2.
Madison took an early 1-0 when Beau Braverman led off the bottom of the 1st inning with a triple and came home to score on a wild pitch moments later. However, that was the last time Madison would get a runner to third base before a consolation run in the bottom of the 7th.
Morris Catholic immediately responded in the top of the 2nd scoring five runs on a wild pitch, an error, a sacrifice bunt, and a two-run home run by Kate Heslin to take a 5-1 lead. Up 6-1 in the fourth the Crusaders put up another crooked number as they sent 13 batters to the plate in the frame with nine of them scoring. Morris Catholic was able to get the final six outs to secure the 5-inning victory.

It was a difficult day for Madison, particularly in the field as Morris Catholic scored five unearned runs and took extra bases on several occasions against the Dodgers. Madison head coach Jessica Rosella acknowledged postgame that Madison was able to make a lot of contact in Friday’s game, against a team of Morris Catholic’s caliber the Dodgers need to play to more complete game.
“We put the ball into play,” Rosella said. “We did our job as far as hitting the ball hard with runners on. Morris Catholic is a good hitting team, there a top team in the state. They are going to hit the ball hard and mostly put in play so defensively we have to be ready for that and make the plays behind our pitchers.”
The Dodgers were without their ace Charlotte Tuhy, who earlier in the season had a 10-strikeout complete game performance against Parsippany, giving the start to junior Ellena Decaro who left her usual spot at third base for the circle Friday afternoon. The right-hander pitched the first three innings against Morris Catholic before ceding way to freshman Georgia Mock. Like Decaro, the neophyte struggled but battled against the No. 10 ranked team in New Jersey in an all around rough day at the ballpark for the Dodgers.
Despite the lopsided scoreboard Rosella was proud of the way the two pitchers muscled through a very difficult matchup amidst limited pitching experience.
“I give credit to Ellena,” the Madison head coach said. “She hasn’t pitched in couple years and I ask her to pitch. She is a good teammate and did her job and did the best she could.”
“Same thing with Georgia,” Rosella added. “She is a freshman so taking those varsity hits a little bit are learning curves that are okay to have. It is tough going against Morris Catholic.”
It is a quick turnaround for the Dodgers as they are set to play their second doubleheader Saturday at the “Lace Up 4 Pediatric Cancer Tournament” when they face off against West Milford and Mendham. Last weekend, Madison lost both games they played in at the Randolph Varsity Challenge Tournament. At 4-5 now on the season, Rosella is hoping to put Friday’s game in the review mirror and get back to winning ways over the weekend.
“We just move ahead, and we find it within ourselves to come out with a ‘W’,” Rosella stated. “We got to keep rolling.”

MADISON, NJ — After more than five years of serving up classic BBQ in Morris County, owner Matt James has announced the impending closing of Daddy Matty's BBQ, much to the chagrin of his regulars.
The eatery, located at 6 Elmer Street, Madison, will be closing its doors officially on Nov. 18, officials said.
"It's been a good run for us here in Madison and we're looking forward to our next chapter," James said. "It's been a real joy to be able to get to this point in the evolution of Daddy Matty's. This whole place got started in my backyard, cooking for friends and family. It's funny that this restaurant now, and the backyard that we enjoy here, is really just an extension of the same party that I threw in my house while I was teaching myself how to smoke meat and do it well."
The restaurant, best known for its variety of BBQ options, announced its future closure abruptly on social media.
James, who has been a Madison resident for 19 years, did not cite a specific reason for shuttering the Madison location but did announce plans for a future relocation to another area, but the timeline for that was not made public.
Despite not having a new location lined up, James said that it made sense for them to close down the Madison location right now.
Daddy Matty's officials said that the business operates with the motto "Everybody Eats," which captures their commitment to sharing and helping out the local community. Since 2014, they have provided thousands of meals through their partnership with the Morris County Interfaith Food Pantry.
"We wanted to create a place that gave back to the community as a part of its DNA and so our partnerships with the Morris County Interfaith Food Pantry and other organizations in the area, there's a lot of importance to me, being able to be an effective contributor back to the local community," James said.
The news of the closure came as a shock to its customers, with one commenter saying, "A great run. Gonna miss one of my favorite Madison spots," and another saying "Aw, I just found you guys too and was so excited to share your great bbq with friends and family."
To celebrate their final two weeks of being open, Daddy Matty's will have live music performances on Wednesdays, Fridays and Saturdays, officials said. For more information, click here.
"In one respect, this is the closing of a chapter but it's not the finish to the book," James said.
