At Fairway Physio we believe in a holistic approach to health and wellness. Acupuncture is a time-tested therapy that has been used for thousands of years to promote healing, alleviate pain, and enhance overall well-being.
We use acupuncture at Fairway Physio as a fantastic method for pain relief. Acupuncture is widely recognized for its ability to relieve chronic pain conditions such as arthritis, back pain, and migraines. It can also effectively reduce pain from acute injuries such as tendonitis and surgical procedures and can hugely facilitate rehab and recovery when used in conjunction with other Physiotherapy related treatments.
We commonly use acupuncture treatments to facilitate treatment of:
Headaches
Acute and chronic back pain
Achilles tendonitis
Tennis and golfers elbow
Arthritis
Frozen shoulder
And more.
Other benefits of acupuncture can include:
Aiding relaxation
Reducing stress and anxiety
Improving sleep quality.
How acupuncture works:
Acupuncture helps to release endorphins, the body's natural painkillers, and modulates the nervous system to provide relief from both acute and chronic pain. By enhancing blood flow to injured areas, acupuncture supports the delivery of essential nutrients and oxygen, which are crucial for tissue repair and recovery.
It helps to relax tight muscles and relieve muscle spasm, which can be particularly beneficial in conditions like whiplash, muscle strains, and back pain.
Incorporating acupuncture into your recovery plan not only addresses physical symptoms but also supports your mental and emotional well-being, ensuring a holistic healing process.
What to Expect During Your Acupuncture Session:
When you visit our clinic for an acupuncture session, you will first have a consultation with our acupuncturist to discuss your health concerns and goals. The treatment involves the insertion of fine, sterile needles into specific points on your body. The process is generally painless, and most patients find it to be a relaxing experience. Each session lasts between 45-60 minutes, and the number of sessions needed varies depending on the individual and the condition being treated.
