Acupuncture
Complementary Medicine
Acupuncture is a form of complementary medicine offered increasingly by physiotherapists. Here at NV Physiotherapists, we use acupuncture either on its own or in conjunction with other treatments to help patients recover from all diverse types of injury.
This treatment is derived from ancient Chinese medicine, in which fine needles are inserted into specific points of the body for therapeutic effect. Physios mainly use evidence-based techniques where research tells us that acupuncture stimulates nerves and muscle tissue resulting in a change of the patient’s perception of pain.
If you find yourself suffering from any type of discomfort or pain as a result of an injury that is not necessarily responding well to treatment, it is always worth considering complimentary therapies as a way to not only speed up the healing process but also alleviate pain during treatment.
