Acupuncture Research & Evidence

Traditional Chinese Medicine is an ancient discipline and there is extensive research evidence to support its efficacy in treating a variety of conditions both independently of and in conjunction with Western medicine. 

​

Acupuncture has been practised for thousands of years, and modern research continues to explore how it works, where it may be beneficial and how it can be used alongside conventional healthcare.

​

We believe it is important to be open about the evidence behind the treatments we offer.
