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 Rockaway Township, 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. It starts with your first evaluation, where our experts learn about your medical history, diagnostic tests, current condition, and overall health goals. From there, we'll create your plan and help you hit your milestones until your quality of life is improved.

Snagging a brand-new apartment at one of Morris County’s hottest rental communities just became a lot easier.
Rock Pointe, the luxury rental community in Rockaway Township, has opened its final phase of residences for leasing, developers KRE Group and Russo Development announced Thursday.
The new phase delivers 78 new apartments to a supply-constrained market, giving renters a fresh chance to lease in an already-popular community. It puts the finishing touch on Rock Pointe, the upscale garden apartment community situated in a spectacular ridgetop setting at 1 Rock Pointe Place, just off Green Pond Road, near shopping, dining and an entrance to Interstate 80.
Rock Pointe has now reached its full size of 345 rental residences, complemented by an array of indoor and outdoor amenities that includes a central 10,000-square-foot clubhouse.
Monthly rental rates start from $2,250 for one-bedroom residences and $2,740 for two-bedroom residences, with incentives of one month free on select two-bedroom apartments available for a limited time. Initial occupancy of the final phase is projected for May.
“We are thrilled to be able to offer one more group of renters the opportunity to join the community here at Rock Pointe,” Jonathan Kushner, president of KRE Group, said. “In a Morris County market where new construction rentals are in high demand, Rock Pointe continues to offer renters an attractive combination of location, luxury and value. It’s a distinction that we are proud of and something we look forward to sharing with even more residents in the near future.”
Rock Pointe offers an amenity-rich lifestyle, with well-appointed residences complemented by elegant social and recreational spaces. The centerpiece is the community’s clubhouse, featuring an expansive layout with a state-of-the-art fitness center and yoga room, resident lounge with several seating areas, fireplace and a bar, conference room, screening/gaming room, and more.
Outside, coveted open-air amenity spaces include a pool, pool house, landscaped terrace with a fire pit, sun loungers, televisions, tot lot, a walking path and a fitness area for invigorating, fresh-air workouts. A central barbecue area is ideal for larger events, while smaller barbecue stations allow for more intimate gatherings. All residents have access to package lockers, individual mailboxes in each building, parking garages for each building, and onsite EV car charging stations. The pet-friendly community also offers a dog park and a dog wash station.
The residences feature plush interior spaces and open layouts that are ideal for both day-to-day living and entertaining. Modern kitchens are outfitted with stainless steel dishwashers, refrigerators and microwaves, and granite countertops. All homes include in-unit washer/dryer, luxury vinyl tile flooring in the living areas, large closets, ceiling fans, and tile flooring in bathrooms. Climate control is efficient and modern, with central AC and gas heat/hot water.
Rock Pointe is a new addition to KRE Group’s “Garden Collection” of luxury apartments. It delivers upscale rental living to a beautiful region of Morris County that is dotted with lakes and lush forests. Commuters are well-connected, as Interstate 80, Interstate 287, Route 15 and Route 46 are all nearby. New Jersey Transit’s Denville train station, offering service to Manhattan, is about a five-mile drive away. Bus service is available through New Jersey Transit and Lakeland Bus Lines. Residents are close to a number of local destinations, including the Rockaway Townsquare Mall, Wegmans, Costco, Lake Hopatcong, the Split Rock Reservoir, Farny State Park and several lake clubs and golf courses.

ROCKAWAY, NJ — A brand-new retail marijuana dispensary in Rockaway has officially opened for business, making it the first legal recreational marijuana dispensary in all of Morris County.
Kind Kush staged its grand opening earlier this month on Aug. 19 in the Rockaway Borough shopping center off of Route 46, which is anchored by Tractor Supply Co., after its preliminary soft launch in late July.
The dispensary received final approval from the New Jersey Cannabis Regulatory Commission on July 18. "The wait was stressful, but we can finally say that we made it, and like we’ve said before, we’re beyond excited to meet you all in-person," Kind Kush officials said.
According to the dispensary's website, packaged goods include cannabis supplied in natural flower-bud form, pre-rolled joints, edibles, vape cartridges, as well as accessories such as lighters, rolling paper and grinders.
Customers must be at least 21 years old and may purchase no more than one ounce at a time.
Prices on their website range from $55 for 3.5 grams of pure indica, $38.67 for a five-pack of pre-rolls, and $30–$40 for edibles.
The dispensary is open from 10 a.m. until 8 p.m. on Monday through Saturday and from 10 a.m. through 6 p.m. on Sundays.
For more information, visit kindkushdispensary.com or email [email protected] or call 973-586-9333.
Although Kind Kush is the county's first recreational dispensary, nearby communities are close behind, with the most anticipated coming to Morristown in the near future.
The business will be housed in a two-story building on Ridgedale Avenue, making it Morristown's first cannabis dispensary. The initial decision and plan presentation occurred last month, but the final approval came on March 23.
Uma Flowers will be located at the former Sam's Automotive Repair location, 102 Ridgedale Avenue.
The land is currently owned by the neighboring Morris Brick and Stone Co., which will lease it to Uma Flowers to run the cannabis business.
The store's debut date was not specified during the plan's presentation, but the dispensary will sell both recreational and medicinal marijuana.
Tejal and Priyanka Patel, the sisters-in-law behind Uma Flowers, told the Morristown planning board that they had worked in public health and medicine before launching the cannabis company around a year ago.
The dispensary will initially be open from 9 a.m. to 8 p.m., Monday through Saturday, and from noon to 8 p.m. on Sunday.
In 2021, New Jersey became the 13th state in the nation to legalize marijuana, joining states like California, Colorado, Maine, Vermont and Massachusetts where marijuana is legal. The move came after a majority of New Jersey voters (more than 70 percent) supported legalizing marijuana, via a change to the state's constitution.
Adults 21 and older have the legal right to consume cannabis in New Jersey. They must smoke in private spaces. However, landlords may prohibit weed consumption on their property.

Super Chix is a rapidly growing fast-casual restaurant chain, and for good reason. Their freshly-prepared, never-frozen approach to chicken has drawn comparisons to chains like Five Guys — a step up from fast food while maintaining a casual dining experience.
The first 2 Super Chix locations in New Jersey have arrived in Morris County. Their East Hanover location opened in September 2022, and the new Rockaway Township location debuted in March 2023 in the Rockaway Townsquare Mall complex.
You’ve likely read about Super Chix’s NJ openings on social media or in local restaurant news. But what should you order when you go, and what can you expect from your visit
The atmosphere at Super Chix restaurants is clean and casual. The interior features bright yellow overhead vents and a mix of stainless steel and wood-grain decor. The order counter provides an open look into the kitchen and food preparation area.
Once you’ve ordered, grab a seat and the staff will deliver the food to your table. There’s a solid array of sauces for your chicken filet or tenders, like Korean BBQ and honey mustard.
Frequent diners enjoy a punch card service that offers free fries on your 3rd visit, free custard on the 6th trip, and a free chicken sandwich or other entree with your ninth order. Delivery options are easily found online.
The menu at Super Chix isn’t overwhelming, but you still might need help narrowing down your options on a first visit. Here are a few menu items that stand out from the pack.
The Super Chix Nashville Hot is a true chicken sandwich classic. Every Super Chix chicken sandwich is available breaded or grilled — order your Nashville Hot chicken breaded for that classic southern comfort feeling.
The Bacavo Ranch is a chicken sandwich served with bacon, avocado, lettuce and tomato. It’s topped with buttermilk ranch, and best experienced with a grilled chicken filet.
Dinner guests can order fries with various seasonings. The rosemary pepper fries are far and away the best choice and taste great with or without ketchup. If you desire a more unique side dish, give the fried pickles a try.
Sometimes a classic option is the best. The Super Chix vanilla custard is a proprietary blend with a hint of bourbon in the aftertaste. There are Cold Fusions available that mix your selected custard flavor with mix-ins like Mint Oreo and Pretzel M&Ms.
The Super Chix Crispy Avocado Salad is topped with two half avocados, each breaded and stuffed with gouda cheese for a full-bodied taste you’d never expect in a vegetarian salad. Fresno peppers and jalapeno ranch dressing provide the perfect amount of kick.
