ACUPUNCTURE 

Acupuncture is a treatment derived from ancient Chinese medicine. Fine needles are inserted at certain sites in the body for therapeutic or preventative purposes 

ANCIENT TRADITION OF ACUPUNCTURE 

The ancient tradition of acupuncture is practised by our physiotherapists in both Sale & Salford. 
Research has shown that acupuncture stimulates the brain to produce natural pain relieving chemicals called endorphins, stimulating the body’s own healing response and ability to gain pain relief which, can in turn, promote normal function. 
 
The process involves stimulation of appropriate acupuncture points usually with needles. 
Acupuncture is administered as part of a planned physiotherapy treatment programme
