Acupuncture in Winchester, Alresford & Twyford
What is Acupuncture?
At Physiotherapy & Wellness in Winchester, Alresford, and Twyford, our fully qualified, AACP-certified physiotherapists use acupuncture as a stand-alone or complementary treatment. After a detailed assessment of your medical history and condition, specific acupuncture points are targeted using sterile, single-use needles. Typically, 2 to 12 needles are inserted at varying depths, remaining in place for 10-30 minutes depending on the treatment goal.
