What Can Acupuncture Treat
Acupuncture: Ancient Wisdom, Modern Relevance
With roots in China tracing back more than 2,000 years, acupuncture is one of the world's oldest and most enduring systems of healthcare. Today it is recognised globally as a safe, effective and natural approach that supports people from a wide range of cultural and social backgrounds. Its relevance continues to grow in modern healthcare, where it is increasingly valued for its role in supporting health across a wide range of conditions.
Acupuncture works holistically, considering the body's natural functions and responses, and places equal emphasis on preventing illness as well as treating existing health concerns.
