Northern Arizona Pain Institutes Introduces Ted Fulop
by Robert J Brownsberger, M.D., & Dorian Lange, PharmD, Northern Arizona Pain Institutes
Meet Northern Arizona Pain Institutes’ acupuncturist Tiberiu Fulop, LAC. His patients call him “Ted.”
Ted is a Diplomate of Acupuncture and licensed acupuncturist who moved to Prescott from Burridge, Illinois, a suburb of Chicago. He is originally from the western part of Romania (Transylvania).
Ted offers a multidimensional approach providing a unique framework of health services.
He began his career as an army medic in Europe. He pursued multiple clinical certificates and logged thousands of hours honing his diagnostic skills. While continuing his work with respiratory patients, Ted became a Reiki Master Teacher of Shambalia Multidimensional healing.
A patient can present any illness related to inflammation, energetic imbalances or want to boost their immune system. Ted has the resources to help a patient to get back on their journey to health and well-being.
Ted joined the Northern Arizona Pain Institutes’ team in December. He offers an alternative treatment for pain that originated in China thousands of years ago called acupuncture. Acupuncture involves needles, heat, pressure and other treatments applied to certain places on the skin. Chronic pain acupuncture has long been recognized as an effective treatment for chronic pain. A 2012 study reported on WebMD found acupuncture was better than either no acupuncture or simulated acupuncture for the treatment of four chronic pain conditions:
- back and neck pain
- osteoarthritis (also known as “degenerative joint disease” or “wear and tear arthritis”)
- chronic headache
- shoulder pain
In the hands of a well-trained practitioner, acupuncture has much to offer beyond pain relief. The World Health Organization (WHO) recognizes the use of acupuncture in the treatment of a wide range of common conditions including:
- joints and muscle
- arthritis
- rheumatism
- tendonitis
- carpal tunnel
- joint pain & back pain
- muscular pain
- upper respiratory tract
- respiratory system
- acute bacillary dysentery
- headache and migraine
- mental and emotional Issues
Ted states, “I am proud to service the Prescott community and team with Northern Arizona Pain Institutes. By offering acupuncture to our treatments, we add another layer of healing services for those who suffer with chronic pain.”
