Acupuncture is a Chinese medicine which has been used for thousands of years. It usually uses small needles to promote a good circulation of the energy in the body, which circulates in what’s called the meridians. Once this energy in the body circulates well, you feel better and have less pains or symptoms related to your condition: for example: bursitis, tendonitis, arthritis, lower back pain and more.

Our acupuncturists see patients with a lot of pain that cannot have any treatments in physiotherapy, osteopathy, occupational therapy or massotherapy, because their pain increases with palpation techniques.

Once their pain is reduced and that the therapist can actually do some hands-on techniques, then they can start their treatment in physiotherapy, osteopathy, occupational therapy or massotherapy.
