Acupuncture
Acupuncture is a key component of traditional Chinese medicine that has been practiced for over 3000 years. It involves inserting very fine needles into specific points on the body to stimulate the nervous system, encourage natural healing, and restore balance. At LPT Healthcare, acupuncture is offered as part of a holistic approach to managing pain and enhancing recovery.
Our acupuncture services are delivered by Chartered Physiotherapists trained and registered with the AACP (Acupuncture Association of Chartered Physiotherapists). This ensures the highest clinical and safety standards are maintained.
Acupuncture is particularly effective in managing musculoskeletal conditions such as arthritis, chronic back and neck pain, sciatica, tension headaches, whiplash-associated disorders, and sports injuries. It may be used independently or in conjunction with physiotherapy depending on your condition, preferences, and response to treatment.
During your initial consultation, your physiotherapist will determine whether acupuncture is appropriate for your case and explain how it may benefit your specific symptoms. All treatments are tailored to the individual, ensuring a safe and effective experience.
