Acupuncture & Dry Needling

At Wellers Hill Physiotherapy, a number of our highly skilled Physiotherapists have undergone specialised training in acupuncture and dry needling (DN). This advanced training has been acquired through courses accredited by the Australian Physiotherapy Association, and our practitioners diligently stay updated with the latest techniques through ongoing refresher courses.

The integration of traditional acupuncture and DN techniques seamlessly complements a physiotherapist’s existing skill set, amplifying their clinical effectiveness and expanding the range of conditions they can address proficiently.

In the pursuit of holistic musculoskeletal treatment, our physiotherapists may recommend the use of acupuncture and DN, and many patients opt for these therapies as integral components of their care.

Over the past decade, substantial evidence has emerged supporting the efficacy of acupuncture and dry needling in various domains of physiotherapy. Notably, research has established evidence-based support for the treatment of acute and chronic back pain, chronic neck pain, tension-type and migraine headaches, pelvic girdle pain, knee osteoarthritis, lateral elbow pain, and shoulder conditions.

Your safety and well-being are paramount to us. Rest assured, we employ sterile, single-use needles for each treatment session, which are safely disposed of following the session.
