What is Acupuncture?
Acupuncture stands as the cornerstone of Chinese Medicine, practiced either independently or alongside herbal medicine, moxibustion (utilizing Artemisia herb for targeted acupuncture point heat therapy), or tui na (Chinese massage).
Within the body, each organ is interconnected through a network of energy pathways known as meridians. Through the insertion of ultra-fine needles along these meridians, the goal is to restore equilibrium and harmony within the body.
Sessions at Parnell Physio with Young typically last about an hour, with needles remaining in place for 20-25 minutes. Many patients experience profound relaxation during treatment, sometimes even drifting into a rejuvenating nap. While acupuncture is renowned for its efficacy in addressing musculoskeletal issues, its traditional roots extend to managing respiratory, digestive, gynecological, and various chronic conditions with equal effectiveness. Trust Young to guide you on your journey to holistic well-being through acupuncture at Parnell Physio.
