Acupuncture
At OsteoandSpinal we use adjunctive treatments such as medical acupuncture to assist with pain relief. According to the NHS, acupuncture involves stimulating sensory nerves under the skin and in the muscle. This results in the body producing endorphin which is a pain-relieving substance.
Currently, the National Institute for Health and Care Excellence (NICE) only recommends considering acupuncture as a treatment option for:
- Chronic pain
- Chronic tension-type headache
- Migraines
- Joint pain
Your osteopath will indicate if you need this.
What Our Clients Say
I got in touch with osteoandspinal after my second knee surgery as I was concerned about my recovery. After my initial consultation, Mahsa explained the issue and laid out a thorough plan for rehabilitating my knee. Following the recommended exercises and after a few adjustments, I’m already feeling stronger and more confident. I am very pleased with the results and would highly recommend osteoandspinal clinic.
I can’t recommend this place enough! I visited osteoandspinal during my pregnancy when I developed a severe back pain. Mahsa made me feel comfortable and at ease by explaining all aspects of the treatment. Over the next couple of visits, she managed to reduce the pain through adjustments and acupuncture.

Frequently asked questions
Does acupuncture hurt?
Acupuncture involves the use of very fine, sterile needles. While you may feel a mild tingling or a dull ache as the needle is placed, the treatment is generally not painful. Your comfort is always our priority, and we tailor the session to your tolerance.
How does acupuncture work?
Traditional acupuncture is believed to stimulate the body's natural healing response. We use it as an evidence-led therapy to relieve muscle tension, improve blood circulation, and reduce pain safely and naturally.
What conditions can acupuncture help with?
Acupuncture is highly effective for a variety of musculoskeletal issues. We frequently use it as part of a comprehensive care programme to help manage tension headaches, lower back pain, neck stiffness, and persistent joint discomfort.
How many acupuncture sessions will I need?
The number of sessions required depends entirely on your specific condition and symptoms. During your initial consultation, we will thoroughly assess your needs and design a personalised treatment programme outlining your recovery.
