Acupuncture & Dry Needling

Western acupuncture is a treatment method that uses needles inserted into specific body points, much like Chinese acupuncture. However, it is based on modern scientific understanding of how the body works, including anatomy and physiology. This type of acupuncture affects the nervous system, helping to relieve pain and improve function. Unlike traditional Chinese acupuncture, Western acupuncture does not involve ideas like Yin/Yang or qi energy flow. Instead, it focuses on how the body functions, making it a gentle and effective alternative to other types of physical therapy.
