What is Acupuncture?

Acupuncture is a traditional Chinese medicine practice that involves inserting thin, sterile needles into specific points on the body. These points correspond to energy pathways (meridians) that help regulate bodily functions. Modern acupuncture integrates Western medical research to stimulate the nervous system, release endorphins, and promote healing.

How Can Acupuncture Help?

Acupuncture is commonly used for:

  • Pain Management – Effective for chronic pain conditions such as back pain, neck pain, and joint pain

  • Sports Injury Recovery – Helps reduce inflammation and accelerate tissue healing

  • Muscle Tension & Stress Relief – Releases tight muscles and promotes relaxation

  • Headache & Migraine Relief – Reduces the frequency and intensity of headaches

  • Improved Circulation & Healing – Enhances blood flow and supports faster recovery

Acupuncture for Sports Injuries & Physiotherapy

Athletes and active individuals use acupuncture as part of their physiotherapy treatment to aid recovery and prevent injuries. Acupuncture can be particularly beneficial for:

  • Tendonitis & Muscle Strains – Reduces pain and inflammation
