Acupuncture is an effective technique used within physiotherapy to relieve pain, relax muscles, and stimulate the body’s natural healing response. It is commonly used for conditions such as back pain, shoulder tension, sciatica, and sports injuries.
Electrotherapy, including ultrasound and TENS, helps enhance circulation, reduce swelling, and support tissue repair.
These treatments may be used alone or alongside manual therapy and targeted exercise to support a complete recovery.
