Acupuncture
Acupuncture is a therapeutic technique where very thin, sterile needles are gently inserted into specific points on the body. These points are selected based on your symptoms and overall presentation, with the goal of supporting the body’s natural regulation and recovery processes.
From a modern biomedical perspective, research suggests acupuncture may influence the nervous system, circulation, and pain-modulation pathways. It is commonly used to help with pain, muscle tension, headaches, stress-related symptoms, and other functional concerns.
At Blackriver Health & Therapy, acupuncture treatments are individualized based on your health history, current presentation, and goals. Acupuncture services are provided by practitioners registered with the College of Complementary Health Professionals of British Columbia.
