Conventional acupuncture involves the use of single use, pre sterilised disposable needles which are placed in certain acupuncture points on the body.
A number of needles may be used and treatment lasts 10 - 30 minutes.
Acupuncture is used to treat pain and inflammation.
It works by enhancing the body's own healing chemicals to aid in recovery from soft tissue trauma.
