Medical Acupuncture

We strongly emphasise that medical acupuncture is totally different from dry needling which is commonly found with other non-doctor practitioners. Medical Acupuncture can only be done by a trained doctor in the field of acupuncture who has specialised knowledge of nervous system channels. AMAC (Australian Medical Acupuncture College) is the awarding college to train doctors with special interest in Acupuncture.

Medical Acupuncture is an alternative medicine which is well recognised now in the Western world. Extensive studies all over the world now confirm the efficacy of acupuncture for a lot of illnesses, especially the musculoskeletal system – that are chronic pains of muscle and joint origins. But we are offering much more than only acupuncture. We have brought in laser machines for acupuncture in addition to needles which are completely painless and as effective, plus it can be used for children as well. This works especially well for people who don’t like needles.

  • Acupuncture improves the body’s functions and promotes the natural self-healing process by stimulating specific anatomic sites – commonly referred to as acupuncture points, or acupoints. The most common method used to stimulate acupoints is the insertion of fine, sterile needles into the skin. Traditional Chinese acupuncture involves the insertion of extremely fine needles into the skin at specific “acupoints.” This may relieve pain by releasing endorphins, the body’s natural pain-killing chemicals, and by affecting the part of the brain that governs serotonin, a brain chemical involved with mood.
