Acupuncture Cornwall
We use acupuncture to deal with not only the pain caused by musculoskeletal conditions but also to treat the root cause.
At Shore Physio – Acupuncture Cornwall, we are able to offer acupuncture as part of your physiotherapy treatment or as a standalone treatment if deemed to be the best course of action after assessment.
Katie is a full member of the Acupuncture Association of Chartered Physiotherapists (AACP).
Acupuncture is safe when practised by a member of the AACP because of the strict hygiene guidelines that must be adhered to, and the training courses and educational updates that are required in order to stay on the membership register.
The needles used are disposable, pre-sterilised and individually packaged. These are often supplied in guide-tubes for easy insertion, which means that there is no risk of anything touching the needle during the process.
Acupuncture is one of the many skills employed within physiotherapy as part of an integrated approach to treat pain and inflammation.
Acupuncture can help tension-type headaches and pain of osteoarthritis, for example osteoarthritis of the knee, especially when it is used in conjunction with other treatments such as physiotherapy.

“I would highly recommend Shore Physio…..I felt listened to for the fist time after previously seeing numerous people to try and help my back pain. Kate helped me understand some of the underlying processes behind long term pain and we have worked together to get me back to playing golf. “
