TCM/Acupuncture Services
At Get Active Physiotherapy, we integrate the expertise of physiotherapists and acupuncturists to deliver personalized care aimed at relieving chronic pain, reducing stress, and improving sleep quality. Acupuncture, rooted in ancient Chinese medicine and central to our holistic treatment approach, plays a pivotal role in achieving optimal health and well-being.
Acupuncture extends beyond its traditional role of improving blood flow. Through precise stimulation of the nervous system, it triggers the release of natural pain-relieving substances and neurotransmitters, thus alleviating discomfort. This targeted therapy targets nerves, connective tissue, and key brain areas responsible for pain modulation, enhancing the body’s natural ability to manage pain and promote relaxation. This dual action not only supports the healing process but also alleviates mental stress, insomnia, and anxiety, promoting overall relaxation and well-being. Additionally, acupuncture optimizes nighttime melatonin levels, reduces stress-related nervous system activity, and maintains balanced mood chemistry, contributing to improved relaxation and sleep patterns.
During your initial consultation at our clinic, our acupuncturists conduct a comprehensive assessment of your physical and mental health. Their skill lies in identifying connections between seemingly unrelated symptoms and using acupuncture to restore Qi flow and balance within the body. This personalized approach ensures our treatment plans address various pain conditions such as back pain, arthritis, and shoulder pain effectively. Working closely with physiotherapists, our integrated approach aims to optimize treatment outcomes by skillfully harmonizing the body’s energy flow through the nervous and muscular systems. This holistic strategy not only promotes pain relief but also enhances overall physical and mental well-being, providing customized care tailored to meet each individual’s unique needs.
