Acupuncture involves the insertion of very fine, sterilised and disposable needles into specific points on the body.

Western Acupuncture, also known as Medical Acupuncture, is based on Traditional Chinese Medicine, and uses the same points.

Acupuncture can be used in conjunction with Chiropractic techniques to help relieve pain and reduce muscle spasm. 

Trigger point acupuncture involves inserting needles into tight and tender points in muscles, thus reducing spasm and pain. This is often very useful for musculoskeletal pain.
