Treatment Built Around How You Move
Sports Medicine Acupuncture at Acupuncture Xperts is built for athletes, weekend warriors, and active patients who need more than generic relaxation care. Doctor Matthew Winke, DACM, starts with how you move — sport demands, training load, and the joints and soft tissue under stress — then designs needling around the structures driving your symptoms.
Sessions integrate orthopedic testing, movement review, and acupuncture protocols aimed at sports injuries, overuse patterns, and recovery between practices, races, or games. Ultra-fine sterile needles may be placed at local orthopedic points and distal meridian points to ease protective muscle guarding and support circulation so tissue can settle between sessions.
Care is commonly used for sprain and strain recovery, tendon irritation, joint discomfort after repetitive training, and lingering tightness that limits mobility. When appropriate, electro-acupuncture, dry needling, cupping, and related clinic modalities may be layered into the visit based on your presentation and goals.
Whether you are returning from an acute sports injury, managing a stubborn overuse pattern, or looking for a smarter recovery plan between high-volume training blocks, Dr. Matthew Winke, DACM, builds each visit around your sport, symptoms, and movement goals.

Behind the Science
Sports medicine acupuncture blends orthopedic assessment with targeted needling of muscles, tendons, and myofascial trigger points involved in athletic injury and overuse. Treatment may combine distal classical points with local orthopedic needling and electro-acupuncture to support pain modulation, circulation, and tissue recovery between training sessions.
Electro-Acupuncture for Sports Injuries
Electro-acupuncture pairs sterile needles with gentle electrical stimulation to expand options for pain, stubborn muscle tension, and sports recovery. For many active patients, it helps reach deeper neuromuscular patterns that stay protective after training or competition.
Doctor Winke selects frequency and point pairs based on your injury pattern and tolerance — not a one-size protocol. It may be used alone or alongside sports acupuncture and dry needling when the clinical picture calls for it.
Featured modality
Dry Needling for Sports Injuries & Muscle Pain
Dry needling targets tight, painful muscles and myofascial trigger points that limit range of motion and keep pain patterns active after sport or repetitive work. It is a focused tool within sports medicine acupuncture when muscle knots, referred pain, or overuse tension are part of the picture.
At Acupuncture Xperts, dry needling is planned around how you move and where you hurt — often combined with electro-acupuncture or sports acupuncture when that combination fits your goals.
Treatment Methods
Sports medicine visits at Acupuncture Xperts may draw from these methods — chosen for your injury pattern, sport, and comfort — not a fixed menu for every patient.
Orthopedic assessment plus targeted acupuncture for athletic injury, overuse, and recovery between training blocks.
Gentle electrical stimulation on selected needles to support pain modulation and neuromuscular recovery when clinically appropriate.

“My goal is never just to reduce your pain score by two points. My goal is to understand your body deeply enough that we can change the underlying pattern creating your pain — so it doesn’t keep coming back.”
