Acupuncture / TCM

Acupuncture and traditional Chinese medicine to relieve chronic pain, headaches, and support natural healing.

About this service

Acupuncture is a technique in which practitioners stimulate specific points on the body — most often by inserting thin needles through the skin — as part of traditional Chinese medicine practice. At Prana, we use acupuncture as an evidence-supported complement to physiotherapy and chiropractic care, particularly for chronic pain, persistent headaches, and musculoskeletal conditions. Research shows acupuncture may help ease types of pain that are often chronic such as low-back pain, neck pain, and osteoarthritis/knee pain. It may also help reduce the frequency of tension headaches and prevent migraine headaches. We use only new, sterile, single-use needles for every treatment.
