Acupuncture & Dry Needling
Precision Pain Relief & Muscle Recovery
At Physio West, we offer targeted acupuncture and dry needling treatments as part of our integrated physiotherapy services — helping you relieve pain, reduce tension, and move with greater ease. Whether you’re recovering from injury, struggling with chronic tightness, or managing muscle imbalances, our experienced team uses needling techniques to accelerate healing and restore optimal function.
What is the difference?
While both involve the use of fine, sterile needles, they serve slightly different purposes:
-
Dry needling focuses on releasing tight muscle bands or trigger points — often used for sports injuries, muscle pain, or postural issues.
-
Acupuncture, based on traditional Chinese medicine principles, is used to restore balance in the body’s energy systems and may assist with a range of physical and stress-related conditions
Our physiotherapists are trained in both approaches and will determine the most effective technique for your specific condition.
