Acupuncture for back and neck pain

Are you one of the thousands of people in the UK suffering from back pain?  Perhaps you feel like you have tried everything - physio, massage, rest, stretches, painkillers - and it's still not quite right? 

 

Back and neck pain are among the most common problems people experience in the UK. I treat these types of musculoskeletal issues frequently with great results, having refined my techniques over the past 15 years of practice. Whether it be a trapped nerve, recurring injury or chronic pain, acupuncture provides an effective natural treatment option. 

When carried out by a properly qualified practitioner, acupuncture has repeatedly been shown to be a safe and effective intervention for helping relieve Back Pain. 

The Acupuncture Evidence Project found evidence for Acupuncture's effectiveness for 117 conditions- Back pain being one of the conditions with high-quality evidence that Acupuncture is a safe and cost-effective treatment option.  

Often, I will only use a few needles and provide targeted and sustainable relief.  Clinically, depending on the type and origin of the pain, I may use other modalities alongside NeoClassical Acupuncture, such as YNSA scalp acupuncture, fascial stretching or pressure, Moxibustion, Cupping, and gua sha. I often incorporate the use of a TDP heat lamp, which my patients love. 

I understand that back pain can be debilitating, frustrating and exhausting, and I look forward to helping you feel better.
