ELECTRONEUROACUPUNCTURE (ENA) SANTA POLA
SANTA POLA ELECTRONEUROACUPUNCTURE TECHNIQUE
Electroneuroacupuncture (ENA) is a recently developed technique in the physiotherapy field that integrates the concepts of acupuncture/Chinese medicine with neuromodulation.
We provide an anatomical and clinical view of the meridians that run through the body and their most prominent acupuncture points. This holistic view of pathology teaches us to visualize the whole and not focus on a single point or affected area. This allows us to treat all types of pathologies, whether chronic, acute, physical, or emotional.
By combining these two well-known physiotherapy techniques, we find the perfect union of an invasive therapy based on nerve innervation and anatomical points (neuromodulation) that integrates seamlessly with traditional Chinese medicine and its points on the meridians that run through our body (acupuncture).

What is Electroneuroacupuncture (ENA)?
To perform this technique, we use acupuncture needles, which vary in length depending on the area being treated. We locate the nerve that supplies the affected area and look for the altered points. To complement this, we look for the points on the related meridian, which will provide additional support to complement the treatment and achieve greater effectiveness.
The fact that we can treat a pathology with points distal to it allows us to multiply the effects and thus the benefits of the treatment. Once the points have been located, as explained above, a current is applied to the needles to stimulate the nerve and generate endorphins that act to reduce pain and relax the area. We can also apply moxa to these points so that relaxation is achieved through the heat that passes through the needle.
This technique teaches us to look at the body as a whole, which is why it is especially beneficial for pain that radiates across a wide area, such as the arm or leg, as it allows us to work along the entire nerve pathway, as well as for people who suffer from generalized pain.
On an emotional level, Electroneuroacupuncture (ENA) can improve anxiety, sleep quality, and overall relaxation by stimulating certain acupuncture points and the peripheral nervous system.
