Evidence-based acupuncture
Acupuncture began in China more than 2000 years ago and was brought to Europe by Portuguese missionaries in the 16th century. Physiotherapists now use these special techniques to manage both pain and inflammation based on clinical evidence of effectiveness.

Your physiotherapist will assess you first of all to determine whether acupuncture is a suitable treatment and to determine the trigger points that will receive the sterile needles. Typically the needles are left in place for 20 to 30 minutes before being removed and disposed of.
