At AcuPhysioHealth they believe that our body likes to be in balance, but unfortunately a number of factors can upset this balance, such as an injury, an illness or natural changes as we age. When we need some rebalancing we should visit the team at AcuPhysioHealth who will administer treatments that will address the root cause of our pain, not just the symptoms.

Your body likes to be in balance. Unfortunately, a number of factors can upset this balance: an injury, an illness or natural changes as we age. When you need some rebalancing, come visit us. We can give you treatments that address the root cause of your pain, not just the symptoms.

AcuPhysioHealth provides holistic healthcare that integrates Traditional Chinese Medicine with physiotherapy treatment and Chinese acupuncture to make way for natural healing. According to the Chinese Medicine philosophy, health is not just the absence of disease, but the complete balance of body, mind and spirit. This philosophy brought about the conception of the traditional acupuncture.

In Manurewa and other parts of South Auckland, acupuncture is one of the commonly used treatments for physical rehabilitation. Although considered as an alternative medicine, it has become a mainstream use due to its evident benefits. For over two centuries now, physicians have honed the healing art of acupuncture, which believes in the ability of the body to heal itself. By assisting the body’s own life force ‘Qi’ to restore balance, it aids in recovery and restoration of body functions.

Most of AcuPhysioHealth’s patients use acupuncture to relieve pain and treat certain health conditions. It can be used as an individual treatment or as part of a treatment programme, and in their years of practice, they have seen promising results for its use in treating and relieving a variety of conditions, including headache, anxiety, toothache, low back pain, labour pain, menstrual cramps, nausea and vomiting related to pregnancy and chemotherapy, post-surgery pain, asthma or difficulty in breathy, chest tightness, wheezing and coughing, myofascial pain caused by spasm in the muscles, and withdrawal symptoms from substance abuse.

The most common misconception about acupuncture is that it is an unsafe form of treatment.  On the contrary, when carried out by a qualified, regulated practitioner, acupuncture is very safe, so for those who think acupuncture could be for them, please visit the website at http://www.acuphysiohealth.co.nz
