Acupuncture

 

 

Acupuncture is a very ancient form of healing that, pre-dates recorded history, which originated from China.

It is an alternative medicine that treats patients by insertion and manipulation of needles in the body. At this practice we practice western Acupuncture and we use it to relieve pain and promote general health.

The research shows that about three quarters of people will get some benefit with acupuncture depending on the condition you have. This may take a few sessions to achieve this. If you have had no benefit after 4 sessions then unfortunately you are unlikely to.  

For approximately the last 40 years there has been lot of research to the effects and benefits of acupuncture. Currently the evidence for acupuncture's effectiveness has been established for the relief of some types of pain and nausea.

We personally have used it in our careers for the last 6 years with very good results.
