  • How does acupuncture work?

    Acupuncture is a therapeutic technique that originated from traditional Chinese medicine. It involves the insertion of thin, sterile needles into specific points on the body to stimulate the flow of energy and promote healing. Through the activation of these points, acupuncture can help alleviate pain, reduce inflammation, and improve overall well-being.

  • Is acupuncture safe?

    Yes, acupuncture is generally considered safe when performed by a trained and licensed professional. At Delta Physiotherapy & Rehab, our acupuncture sessions are conducted by experienced practitioners who adhere to strict guidelines for hygiene and safety. The use of single-use, sterile needles further minimizes the risk of infection or complications.
