What is acupuncture?
At Physio Med, we offer conventional acupuncture treatment. This form of traditional Chinese Medicine can be used alongside other physiotherapy treatments to enhance recovery.
Conventional acupuncture involves the use of single-use, pre-sterilised disposable needles that pierce the skin at the acupuncture points to produce natural pain-relieving chemicals. It has also been shown to have other physiological effects on the body which assist the body's healing processes.
Why do physiotherapists recommend acupuncture?
Physiotherapists base their treatments on scientific research and clinical evidence that Acupuncture can reduce pain by stimulating the brain and spinal cord to produce natural pain-relieving chemicals. It has also been shown to have other physiological effects on the body which assist the body's healing processes.
