Acupuncture
- Maylands Physiotherapy is unique in being able to offer both
Western and Chinese Acupuncture
- Western Acupuncture or Dry Needling (also Trigger Point
Needling) uses acupuncture needles to release trigger
points identified by our experienced physiotherapists for the
relief of muscle tightness and spasm
- Sometimes severe muscle spasm can be wrongly diagnosed
as a muscle tear; the use of dry needling will quickly relieve
the spasm and if there is no tear,recovery can be almost immediate
- Chinese Acupuncture is performed by Marieke O’Halloran who
previously worked as a physiotherapist in the Netherlands and
subsequently retrained in China, amongst other places,
as a professional Chinese Acupunturist
- Chinese Acupunture is useful for improving general well-being
as well as numerous specific complaints
