Acupuncture

This form of treatment has been used for thousands of years in China and more recently since the 1970s in Western medicine. While explanations may differ between the two schools of thought, both support the use of acupuncture to provide pain relief.

At Prompt Physiotherapy Clinic, we use intramuscular stimulation (IMS) to treat acute and chronic pain. This technique uses thin and flexible dry needles without any medication to release and inactivate the trigger points in muscles to relieve pain.

Dry needling is used to treat many conditions, such as back pain, neck pain, arm pain, leg pain, pinched nerves and tight muscles.
