How Does Acupuncture Work?
Acupuncture involves needling altered or dysfunctional tissues to improve or restore function. This may include needling myofascial trigger points (over contractile muscle tissue), the periosteum (lining of bone), and other soft tissues. The Thorpes Physiotherapy acupuncture therapists use very fine sterilised needles, relying on the stimulation of receptors in the target tissue for therapeutic effect. Acupuncture is a very safe form of treatment, with a large percentage of patients reporting symptom improvement on the day they receive acupuncture / dry needling treatment.
