Coming from a tradition that dates back over 2,000 years, Acupuncture is by far the oldest treatment offered at our clinic. Acupuncture involves using fine, sterile needles to penetrate the surface of the skin in order to affect the flow of energy and encourage a healing response for pain and a broad range of conditions. Unlike many other treatments on offer at our clinic, acupuncture does not involve any manipulation of muscles or joints. Highly trained therapists, specializing in this technique, insert needles at specific points either around the painful area or at other locations on the body. Each needle performs a role in the overall treatment, there are hundreds of recognized places to insert needles around the body, each patient’s treatment is totally unique.

Frequently Asked Questions
Acupuncture is a therapeutic treatment that uses very fine needles to stimulate specific points on the body to reduce pain, improve mobility, and support overall wellness. It is commonly used to treat conditions such as back pain, neck pain, muscle tension, headaches, stress, and chronic pain. Acupuncture helps calm the nervous system, improve circulation, release tight muscles, and promote the body’s natural healing processes — making it an effective, non-invasive option for both pain relief and stress reduction.
Acupuncture works by stimulating specific points in the body that influence blood flow, the nervous system, and the release of natural pain-relieving chemicals. These targeted points may be near the site of discomfort or in other areas that support healing.
Benefits include pain relief for back pain, neck pain, and general musculoskeletal issues, reduced stress, improved mobility, better overall wellness, and cosmetic benefits through facial acupuncture.
Facial acupuncture uses fine needles placed on the face and surrounding areas to improve skin health, promote circulation, soften fine lines, and support overall facial rejuvenation.
