Acupuncture in Waterdown
At Kinstruct Health Chiropractic & Wellness, we believe acupuncture provides not only pain relief but helps facilitate healing by improving tissue repair. This ancient and effective therapy is complimentary to chiropractic care, massage therapy and naturopathy. Acupuncture care is carried out by Dr. Jennifer Scott, our Naturopathic Doctor.
Acupuncture is a method of encouraging the body to promote natural healing and improve function. This is done by inserting needles and applying electrical stimulation at very precise acupuncture points. Inserting a needle into local tissue helps to increase blood supply to that area. In turn, healing is facilitated. Needling may also help to break up trigger points and encourage tissue repair.
