Acupuncture

Acupuncture is a skill modality used by physiotherapists for the management of pain and inflammation. Physiotherapists base their treatments on years of scientific research and clinical evidence showing that by stimulating the brain and spinal cord receptors release natural pain-relieving chemicals such as endorphins, melatonin and serotonin to reduce pain. Clinical evidence has shown using Acupuncture in conjunction with other physiotherapy modalities assist in maximum pain relief.

As we understand through research more about acupuncture, the use of acupuncture alongside orthodox medicine is increasing. The distinction between complementary or alternative medicine and conventional medicine is reducing as acupuncture is accepted by GPs and consultants.
