The\u00a0Ottawa Physiotherapy<\/a> and Sport Clinics offer medical acupuncture to patients in our Orleans, Barrhaven, Main Street, Hunt Club, Kanata Lakes, and Westboro locations. Acupuncture has been used by the Chinese for thousands of years, and has gained recognition and use in the western world over the past several decades. It involves the insertion of very fine needles through the skin and tissues at specific points typically along what are called \u2018meridians\u2019 or \u2018pathways\u2019. These pathways are believed to be energy channels through which energy flows through the body. Orleans Acupuncture points were mapped by the Chinese centuries ago, however, there has been research performed by several Canadian doctors who have identified a correlation of acupuncture points and known neural structures within the musculoskeletal system.<\/p>\n<\/div><\/div>\n\n

How Does Acupuncture Work in Ottawa?<\/h4>\n<\/div><\/div>\n\n

Acupuncture works by restoring the normal energy balance within the body, therefore, allowing natural healing to occur. The insertion of the fine needle into the tissues also releases endorphins. Endorphins are made by the body and are one of the body\u2019s own natural pain-relieving chemicals. These endorphins block the passage of pain signals to the brain and therefore help to relieve or reduce pain within the body. When pain is reduced, the body can then restore normal biochemical balance and promote healing.<\/p>\n
