Acupuncture

Acupuncture involves inserting needles into the skin at defined places which helps to relieve pain. By stimulating these points, it’s thought to promote the body’s natural healing process and enhance function. In addition, acupuncture stimulates the Central Nervous System which releases chemicals and hormones which in-turn reduce pain, encourage the inflammatory process, boost the immune system and regulate various body functions. acupuncture has been used in China for at least the last 3,000 years. Its usage by physiotherapists in the West has increased greatly as research has shown that, through stimulation of the brain, a body treated with acupuncture produces natural pain-relieving chemicals, such as endorphins, which help the body heal itself and manage pain.
