Our medical acupuncture service is designed to support pain relief, promote recovery and enhance your overall wellbeing alongside your chiropractic care.
What is Medical Acupuncture?
Medical acupuncture is a modern, evidence-based treatment that involves the insertion of very fine needles into specific points on the body to help relieve pain and improve function.
It is commonly used alongside other treatments, such as chiropractic care, to support the body’s natural healing processes and provide effective relief from a range of conditions.
How Does Medical Acupuncture Work?
Medical acupuncture works by stimulating the nervous system. When the fine needles are inserted, they encourage the release of natural chemicals in the body, including endorphins, which help to reduce pain and promote healing.
This stimulation can also improve blood flow, reduce muscle tension and support the body’s overall recovery process.
Medical acupuncture is grounded in modern anatomy, physiology and scientific research, and it is used as a clinical treatment to target specific areas of pain or dysfunction.
Our Expert Approach
At Back On Track Clinic, medical acupuncture is used as part of a personalised treatment plan.
We take the time to understand your symptoms, identify the root cause of your discomfort and determine whether acupuncture is suitable for you.
The treatment itself is gentle, and many patients find it relaxing. It can be used to complement other therapies and enhance overall results.
The Treatment Process
Your appointment will begin with a discussion about your symptoms and medical history to ensure the treatment is tailored to your needs.
Fine needles are then carefully placed into specific areas of the body, targeting points related to your condition. The number of needles used will vary depending on your treatment plan.
Sessions are typically comfortable, and the treatment time will be discussed with you in advance as part of your personalised care plan.
