Back pain can be a real, well, pain in back!

Acupuncture and dry needling together, may help treating acute and chronic back pain.

​

Back pain is often a straight forward muscular problem, which can be resolved via specific acupuncture and trigger points.

​

However, long term back pain may be related to a structural issue, most commonly disc and facet joint problems. The best results come from treating the surrounding musculature rather than manipulate the joints themselves.

 

Hip flexor muscles, the ones that allow us to bend at the waist, can commonly cause back pain too. And this is often overlooked.

​

Encouraging the body to release around these problem areas is the safest way to gain long term relief.

Postural assessment and correction is provided, along with advice on seating and desk orientation.
