💆‍♀️ What Is Medical Acupuncture?

Also nown as "Western Acupuncture" , or "Dry needling", this therapy is based on modern anatomy, physiology, and evidence-based medicine.

At Hope Physiotherapy, our experienced physiotherapists use fine needles to stimulate nerves, muscles, and soft tissues — reducing pain and improving mobility. This treatment stimulates nerves and soft tissues to release endorphins and natural anti-inflammatory chemicals. This makes it a natural, evidence-based extension of physiotherapy treatment plans.
