Acupuncture is the insertion of fine needles into the skin/tissues at specific points around the body.
Originating in China over 2000 years ago, Acupuncture is an excellent way of improving overall wellbeing by enhancing the body’s own natural pain relieving mechanisms, increasing bloodflow to an area and allowing relaxation.
Acupuncture therapy is therefore used for pain relief, healing, reducing tension/anxiety and is extremely useful in managing the pain associated with chronic conditions such as lower back pain and arthritis.
