Medical Acupuncture

Medical acupuncture involves the insertion of fine needles into specific neurofunctional sites to stimulate the nervous system and enhance nerve pathway function. This evidence-based ancient practice can be beneficial for various conditions, promoting healing and improving recovery.

Acupuncture can be beneficial for;

  • Tendonitis

  • Arthritis

  • TMJ dysfunction

  • Headaches

  • Sprains and Strains

  • Musculoskeletal conditions

  • Acute and chronic pain

  • Stress

Does it hurt?

  • No, practitioners use a painless needling technique.

  • Occasionally, you may experience a dull ache or mild discomfort. If you communicate this to your practitioner, they will adjust the needle to ensure your comfort.

In practice, medical acupuncture is frequently incorporated into a comprehensive treatment plan that encompasses massage therapy, physiotherapy, chiropractic care, and other modalities, fostering an effective multimodal approach to pain management and injury recovery.

This treatment is provided by a Registered Massage Therapist and can be submitted under Massage Therapy for insurance.
