Your St. Catharines Acupuncture Specialists

What is Acupuncture?
Acupuncture treatment is one of the oldest healing techniques in the world, and one of our most effective natural remedies for a variety of aches and pains, illnesses, and conditions. It originated in China over 5,000 years ago and is still a widely used method for pain relief and healing.
The process stimulates natural healing in the body by inserting thin needles into specific areas known as “acupuncture points.” By putting pressure on these points, which are connected to nerve paths, blood vessels, and lymphatic channels, the body begins to heal naturally. During the process, the brain releases positive chemicals such as endorphins that make you feel good and enkephalins that relieve pain.
Acupuncture needles are sterile, disposable, and safe. The World Health Organization (WHO) recognizes acupuncture as a safe and effective treatment for a variety of illnesses, ailments, and injuries. When performed by a professional, the treatment provides both immediate and long-term healing.
Our team at Dalhousie Health and Wellness is highly educated and experienced in providing acupuncture treatment for a variety of conditions. We will sit down with you and go over your situation, assessing every aspect of your health and wellbeing.

​Acupuncture for Fertility

If you are trying to get pregnant, or struggling with an irregular menstrual cycle, acupuncture can help you. We will meet with you to discuss your individual situation and provide professional medical recommendations, but generally we recommend 1-2 acupuncture treatments per week for 3 cycles. This provides a variety of benefits, including enhancing the uterine lining, increasing egg and sperm quality, and maintaining overall hormonal balance.

Prenatal Care

Acupuncture can be very helpful during your pregnancy.  It can be beneficial for those who are pregnant and looking for natural ways to maintain their baby’s health until they deliver.  The most common uses of acupuncture during pregnancy include soothing aches and pains associated with pregnancy, helping to turn a breech baby, labour preparation and natural induction for overdue babies.

Acupuncture for Back Pain

Back pain is one of the most common types of chronic pain that affects people, regardless of age, gender, or demographic. As a result, back pain is one of the most prominent reasons that people come to us for acupuncture services. Acupuncture for back pain is a common natural solution that many people turn to in order to allow the body to naturally heal and relieve pain. By stimulating the nervous system, the pain that you are feeling in your back can be substantially relieved.
