How Can Acupuncture Complement Physiotherapy?

Physiotherapy focuses on restoring movement, strength, mobility, and function through assessment, hands-on treatment, therapeutic exercises, and rehabilitation.

Acupuncture can be used as a complementary treatment alongside physiotherapy to support pain management and help ease muscle tension.

When appropriate, combining both approaches may help suitable patients relieve pain and reduce muscle tension – so you can recover with greater comfort and confidence.
