Acupuncture
Acupuncture is used as part of our physiotherapy treatment to provide pain relief, reduce inflammation, and provide general relaxation. This technique involves the insertion of fine needles through the skin and tissues at specific points in the body.
Dry needling
Functional Dry Needling (FDN) is a treatment used to release muscular trigger points, tightness, and spasm which can be causing pain and movement dysfunctions. Small, thin needles are inserted into muscle trigger points and provide quick and effective release of those tight muscles. The technique also results in increased blood flow to the area which promotes healing.
Is acupuncture/dry needling a good treatment for me?
Both dry needling and acupuncture are extremely effective techniques for a variety of musculoskeletal conditions. Our specially trained physiotherapists will assess your individual needs and determine if either of these techniques would be appropriate for you. Both services are offered as part of our physiotherapy treatment at no extra cost. If you would like to learn more, don’t hesitate to contact us to inquire about these services.
