Western medical acupuncture is a therapeutic modality involving the insertion of fine needles; it is an adaptation of Chinese acupuncture using current knowledge of anatomy physiology and pathology, and the principles of evidence based medicine. While Western medical acupuncture has evolved from Chinese acupuncture, its practitioners no longer adhere to concepts such as Yin/Yang and circulation of qi, and regard acupuncture as part of conventional medicine rather than a complete “alternative medical system”. It acts mainly by stimulating various trigger points probably nerve fibres to release the bodys own opiods. Western medical acupuncture is principally used by conventional healthcare practitioners, most commonly in primary care. Ask one of our chiropractors if Medical Acupuncture maybe of benefit to you. Arif and Melanie are both members of the British Medical Acupuncture Society.

According to traditional Chinese philosophy, our health is dependent on the body's motivating energy - known as qi - moving in a smooth and balanced way through a series of meridians (channels) beneath the skin. Theflow of qi can be disturbed by many factors, physical, mental and emotional:anxiety, stress, anger, fear or grief, poor nutrition, weather conditions,hereditary factors, infections, poisons and trauma. By inserting fine needlesinto the channels of energy, an acupuncturist can stimulate the body's ownhealing response and help to restore its natural balance.
