Acupuncture is a time-tested therapy that uses the precise insertion of fine, sterile needles at specific points on the body to stimulate the body's natural healing processes. At Cole Harbour Physio & Rehab, acupuncture is offered as part of a personalized, evidence-informed approach to care — whether you're managing chronic pain, recovering from an injury, or looking to support your overall wellness.
What can acupuncture help with?
Acupuncture is commonly used to address a wide range of conditions, including:
- Neck, back, shoulder, hip, and knee pain
- Headaches and migraines
- Tendonitis and bursitis
- Sciatica and nerve pain
- Stress, anxiety, and sleep difficulties
- Sports injuries and post-surgical recovery
- Digestive concerns
- Fatigue and low energy
What to expect
Your first visit will include a thorough assessment to understand your health history, goals, and the factors contributing to your symptoms. Treatment involves the placement of very fine needles at targeted points on the body — most people find the experience comfortable and deeply relaxing, often leaving feeling calm and refreshed.
Follow-up visits build on your initial treatment, with your therapist adjusting the approach as your symptoms evolve. The number of sessions varies by individual and condition; your practitioner will discuss a recommended plan with you.
A collaborative approach
Acupuncture integrates seamlessly with the physiotherapy, massage therapy, and rehabilitation services available at our clinic. Many clients find combining acupuncture with other treatments supports faster, more complete recovery.
