Collingwood Acupuncture, Acupuncture Collingwood, Acupuncturist, Blue Mountain: Contemporary Medical Acupuncture

Acupuncture

Acupuncture makes use of small, single use needles inserted into specific points of the body to affect the nerves which are responsible for blood flow, muscle tension, as well as pain sensation. Together with light electrical-stimulation of the needles acupuncture can decrease or eliminate pain, increase blood flow necessary for healing, & and improve muscle function.

Acupuncture is now one of the most studied forms of conservative treatments and there are numerous trials in major medical journals demonstrating its effectiveness on a variety of conditions.

Contemporary Medical Acupuncture

This effective and simple treatment approach is based on current concepts of neurophysiology, neuroanatomy, and pathophysiology.

Insertion of solid, single-use disposable needles in conjunction with electrical stimulation of particular target sites forms the foundation of this approach.

This is the method taught to physicians, chiropractors, physiotherapists, & other health professional at McMaster University in the Contemporary Medical Acupuncture program.
