Acupuncture is a form of alternative medicine in which your physiotherapist will insert  very thin acupuncture needles into various predetermined acupuncture points depending on your condition. Our physiotherapists are trained and certified by Acupuncture Canada. Recent research has been highly recommending this drug free treatment for pain relief and improvement of functions.

WHO (World Health Organization) recognizes Acupuncture as a treatment modality. There is abundant research supporting acupuncture as an alternate treatment method for various conditions. 

Our physiotherapists are authorized by the Physiotherapy Alberta College + Association to use needles in physiotherapy practice.

Acupuncture treatment is also effective in regulating your bodily energy channels (Meridians) to improve your internal organ functions, reduce anxiety, depression, tinnitus, and treat stiff joints to improve the range of motion.

This treatment  may produce changes in nerves, muscles, connective tissue, hormones, and circulation in the body. Acupuncture helps the body to secrete natural pain relieving substances such as  endorphin and serotonin.

We at, Twin Brooks Physical Therapy & Sports Injury Clinic in Edmonton, offer Acupuncture Therapy services with proper care.
