Acupuncture Supporting Pain Management and Holistic Healing in Box Hill
At Victorian Spinal, Sports Physiotherapy & Acupuncture Clinic in Box Hill, VIC, we use acupuncture as a complementary therapy to enhance recovery and overall well-being. As part of your personalised care plan, acupuncture can help manage pain, reduce stress, and promote the body’s natural healing processes.
Whether you’re recovering from an injury or managing ongoing discomfort, acupuncture offers a gentle and effective way to support your physiotherapy treatment and improve your quality of life.
What is Acupuncture?
Acupuncture is a traditional therapy that involves the insertion of fine, sterile needles into specific pressure points across the body. These points are carefully selected to target areas related to pain, tension, or imbalance.
The process is generally painless and performed in a calm, relaxed setting. It can be a valuable addition to physiotherapy treatment, helping to calm the nervous system and encourage the body to heal more efficiently.
Conditions Treated With Acupuncture
Acupuncture is particularly effective for musculoskeletal conditions, especially when used alongside physiotherapy. It helps relieve tension, reduce inflammation, and manage chronic pain conditions that don’t always respond fully to physical therapy alone.
At our clinic, we use acupuncture to support the treatment of:
- Back and neck pain
- Muscle tightness and spasms
- Joint pain and inflammation
- Chronic sports-related discomfort
By integrating acupuncture into our treatment plans, we offer a more holistic approach to pain management and recovery.
How Does Acupuncture Work?
Acupuncture works by stimulating the nervous system and improving blood flow to targeted areas. This can help relieve pain, reduce stress, and support your body's internal systems to function more effectively.
It is commonly used to:
- Manage pain in joints and muscles
- Promote relaxation and reduce tension
- Enhance energy flow and organ function
- Complement physiotherapy for faster recovery
