Acupuncture Treatment
Acupuncture is a method of balancing the body's energy by
inserting needles under the skin at specific points along
the energy pathways (meridians), to prevent or cure diseases
and/or disorders. Modern approaches recognize that needles
inserted at acupuncture points induce biochemical changes in the body.
What we use acupuncture for?
A number of physiotherapists at The Sports Therapy Clinic utilize
acupuncture in the treatment of various musculoskeletal disorders.
We feel the use of acupuncture is a valuable tool in the repertoire
of techniques and technology used at our facility.
Our practitioners of acupuncture at The Sports Therapy Clinic shall:
- Comply with the Code of Ethics of our professional regulatory body
- Practice within our professional scope of practice
- Practice within our level of training
- Consult with or refer to more experienced practitioners, as appropriate
- Identify with the public, our correct professional designation and/or title
with respect to their acupuncture and/or Oriental Medicine training.
Our practitioners of acupuncture at our clinic have all received their training
through the Acupuncture Foundation of Canada Institute located in Toronto Ontario.
