Types of Treatments

WHO states that over a hundred conditions can be treated by acupuncture.

 

Acupuncture is an ancient traditional Chinese therapy where thin stainless steel needles are inserted into specific points in the body. It can be used for acute or chronic conditions and works on your physical symptoms as well as your mood and emotions.  It aims to tackle the root cause of your issues.

 

Studies show that it is used to treat a wide range of common health problems and to reduce pain. NICE guidelines (2009) recommend a course of 10 treatments of acupuncture for persistent, non-specific low back pain. In September 2012, NICE recognised acupuncture’s benefits for migraines and tension-type headaches too.
