ACUPUNCTURE

Acupuncture is a safe form of pain management for many soft tissue and neurological conditions. It involves the insertion of fine sterile needles, through the skin, at specific points on one's body.

Acupuncture is known to stimulate the central nervous system, nerves, muscles and connective tissue. This in turn, releases chemicals into the muscles, spinal cord and brain. These biochemical changes stimulate the body's natural healing abilities and promotes both physical and emotional wellbeing.

A common treatment plan for an individual complaint typically involves one or two treatments per week. The number of treatments is dependent on the condition and its severity. Acupuncture is an excellent conjunct to manual therapy and other modalities.
