- ACC & Private
- Price
- from $45
Fine needles used to settle pain and get an injured area moving again, alongside the physiotherapy plan.
Acupuncture works alongside hands-on physiotherapy rather than instead of it. Settling the pain and muscle guarding first makes the movement and strength work that follows easier to do.
With an accepted ACC claim, bring your claim number along and pay the co-payment on the day. Without one, book a private appointment.
What the session is made of
Check In
What brings you in and, with an ACC claim, the claim number and the injury it covers, so the appointment is billed correctly.
Assessment
Where the pain is, how the injury is moving, and which points will settle it.
Needling
Fine needles placed and left to work while you rest, adjusted as the area eases.
Review
How the area responded, and how acupuncture fits with the rest of your physiotherapy plan.
“After a lot of travelling in New Zealand and feeling aches and pains, I booked a massage to relieve the pain and it was great. I would recommend this place to everyone.”
