Acupuncture Therapies Explained

At Durham Family Chiropractic, some of our practitioners offer Dry Needling and Western Medical Acupuncture, as part of their wider treatment approach. Here is a simple explanation of the Acupuncture therapies we have to offer:

Acupuncture was originally used as part of Traditional Chinese Medicine (TCM) and is a technique that uses fine needles which are inserted into specific points in the body to bring about an energetic response. Western scientists took this idea and carried out research on the specific effects of acupuncture on the body and documented what physical and chemical changes occurred. This forms the basis for Western Medical Acupuncture (WMA). WMA is therefore an evidence-based technique that can be recommended for the treatment of many types of physical and chemical problems in the body.

The secrets to optimising your health care plan.

Some organisations will choose to offer a scheme to their employees at a cost to the employee, and some individuals will take out their own care plans independently.

Whatever the reason, the same rules apply to optimising the plan. [Read more…] about The secrets to optimising your health care plan.

New Acupuncture Treatment

Imagine living a life free of the chronic pain that has affected your quality of life and ability to do what you love.

Neil Thomas, Doctor of Chiropractic and Medical Acupuncturist has successfully trialed a new acupuncture treatment that is  being introduced at Durham Family Chiropractic that reduces pain very quickly with lasting effects.

The new system of acupuncture will allow patients with chronic pain complaints to seek another avenue of care other than chiropractic and osteopathy. Battlefield or ‘Rapid’ acupuncture will be available for any chronic pain related complaint where chiropractic or osteopathy may not be suitable or if the patient requires quicker pain relief while undergoing co-management with another therapy.

Testimonials

Daily tension headaches left me feeling tired all the time and prescription painkillers led me to suffering with feelings of sickness and rebound headaches. Just 4 months of treatment, reduced my headaches and left me more energised. I feel like a new person!

I have been receiving chiropractic treatment for the past 15-16 years after a severe sporting injury. Each chiropractor that I have seen has kept me mobile and fighting fit.
