Western Medical Acupuncture is a therapeutic modality that entails the insertion of fine needles. It represents an adaptation of Chinese acupuncture, integrating contemporary insights into anatomy, physiology, and pathology, as well as adhering to the principles of evidence-based medicine. Substantial Western scientific research on pain has contributed to our understanding of how acupuncture operates. Specifically, it has been observed that acupuncture triggers the release of natural pain-relieving and healing chemicals within our bodies. In essence, acupuncture seems to facilitate the body's inherent healing processes.

Every person's healing journey is unique. Some patients notice improvements straight away, whilst others may need several treatments before experiencing significant relief. This isn't necessarily a reflection of the severity of your condition or the effectiveness of treatment, it simply shows that everyone's body responds differently and heals at its own pace. We all have different stresses in our lives and different lifestyles which may also impact our healing.

Remember, healing isn't linear, you may have good days and more challenging days as your body works through the process and depending on what else is happening in your life at that time.

We offer you advice on aftercare and any necessary lifestyle changes and changes to your workstation to help you get the most out of your care.

Understanding Your Sciatic Nerve: The Body's Information Highway!

Have you ever wondered why sciatic pain can feel so different from other types of back pain? The answer lies in the unique nature of your sciatic nerve – the longest and widest nerve in your body. Like a complex telecommunications cable, the sciatic nerve begins in your lower back, divides into two branches, and runs through your hips, buttocks, and down each leg, finally ending in your feet.

When this nerve becomes compressed or irritated, it's similar to stepping on a garden hose – the flow is disrupted, causing various sensations along its path. This explains why you might feel pain in your leg even though the actual problem originates in your back.

What makes sciatica particularly challenging is that the nerve can be affected at multiple points along its journey, much like how a train line can be disrupted at various stations.

The good news? Your body has an amazing capacity for healing when given the right support. Just as a kinked garden hose returns to normal when the pressure is released, your sciatic nerve can function properly again with appropriate care and treatment.

This is where we can help, identifying where and why the nerve is being compressed is the first step toward effective relief. Swiftly followed by treatment and advice. You can book online or message for advice!
