what to expect.
our certified practitioners are members of the acupuncture association of chartered physiotherapists (aacp), ensuring we adhere to the highest standards of practice. we'll conduct a full assessment to confirm acupuncture is the right fit for your condition.
drawing from more than a thousand years of traditional chinese medicine, acupuncture enhances the body's own healing chemicals to reduce pain and inflammation. treatment stimulates the brain and spinal cord to produce endorphins, serotonin and melatonin — supporting recovery alongside exercise and rehabilitation.
